Launched in 2013, Parcel Holders is the solution to the perennial problem of getting spares to the right people, in the right place, at the right time; which has been enthusiastically embraced by the UK’s vending and water industries.
We won the 2015 Vendie for Best Environmental Initiative and the elimination from the industry of innumerable unnecessary miles continues. By using as ‘PickUp / DropOff’ points shops situated close to a field engineer’s home, the irritating detour of returning to base to collect a part is now a part of vending’s history.
Apart from those miles saved, think about time management: ask any operator whether they’d prefer his engineers to be behind a wheel or behind a machine and they’ll tell you that’s ‘a no brainer’. Think also of the fuel that’s been saved. Think also of the added revenue incumbent in reduced machine down time…
In the past year, we’ve enhanced our service. ‘Parcel Suppliers’ addresses the requirements of parts suppliers. AA First, Abbeychart; Becktech, Borg & Overstrom; Coffeetek, Crane; N&W, Vendpart and Westomatic are now all members.
And now, our service is about to go up another gear. Working together with Westomatic, we’ve launched a service that ensures the prompt return of the part that is being replaced. Parts going missing, issues over who’s responsible for what and who picks up the bill when it goes pear-shaped… Soon, this particular industry bête-noir will go the way of unnecessary miles and ‘out of order’ signs.
We’re proud to say that our impact on the vending industry has been immediate and is seen as ‘hugely significant’ in the on-going battle to cut costs and improve service. That’s why we’re asking you to vote for us in the category Best Ancillary Service to the Industry.
Thanks!
