The Currenza c² coin recycling unit has been in successful use in the vending industry for many years. Naturally Currenza customers were keen to meet up with their trusted contacts, and they found them on the Suzo-Happ stand as Suzo-Happ is the new name behind Currenza.
Same product, same contact people – just a different name. The sales staff at the Venditalia included Marco Cantafora, Christian Mengus, Luis Fernández, Torben Dankers, Horst Mayerbacher, Michael Pfeil, Mark Simmons and Nick Norris.
Yet this new company offers so much more. The Currenza coin recycling unit and cashless clip system were joined by a world of Suzo-Happ innovative products. Suzo-Happ is the industry’s answer to spare parts and components with 500 employees serving over 20,000 customers around the world. Suzo-Happ is the leading component company in the global amusement and gaming industries.
“We are a global company with over five decades of experience”, explained Mr. Harald Wagemaker, Executive Vice President Sales & Marketing EMEA of Suzo-Happ. “Currenza is a household name in the vending industry and thus the perfect way for our company to position itself quickly and strongly in the vending market”.
Suzo-Happ is an innovator and will keep on showing the industry new solutions
The benefits for the vending industry are clear. Suzo-Happ is an innovator and will keep on showing the industry new solutions. This began at Venditalia where two further Suzo-Happ products stood out in particular: The LCD buttons and the LCD door. The problem of having to place pricing cards by each product vended is solved by the LCD buttons. These animated push buttons are programmable – that means the operator can portray what he/she likes – pictures / prices, etc. These can change – for example operators can then offer products at different prices at different times of the day. The LCD door is a perfect way to market glass-front vending machines. The LCD panel is placed within the door and again is programmable to show advertising, messages, indeed only one’s imagination is the limit. And it can be programmed to show varying degrees of colour – so that the products behind it can still be seen. Indeed, the image can be programmed to disappear once a customer wishes to vend a product.
“Look to Suzo-Happ as the innovator for components and spare parts in the industry. We are a friendly, professional team that seeks constant dialogue with manufacturers and operators alike to create solutions to drive the market forward. We are very proud to have the Currenza team on board and look forward to growing the Currenza product family”, concluded Mr. Wagemaker.
