A successful Euvend 2019

We once again participated in this year’s Euvend & Coffeena in Cologne – the trade fair for the vending and coffee industry – to present the S+M GmbH, our products and services to interested experts of the trade.

Our main focus this time was on our Connected Vending System Vensolutions in connection with the payment system Vencash. The light and open fair stand featured these two areas of expertise as well, connected by an inviting sitting area with a comfortable atmosphere for lively talks.

We were very happy to welcome many long-term customers and partners as well as a large number of new interested parties. You can really tell the growing interest in telemetry and Connected Vending solutions from fair to fair. Especially the overall high quality of talks shows us that the industry is dealing a lot more with the field of telemetry and the questions are getting much more concrete.

From small businesses to global players we talked to many different experts in the field. Apart from our larger partners a lot of smaller and medium businesses are starting to acknowledge the advantages which the use of our systems can deliver. This confirms that we have been interpreting the trends in the right way for the last years and that we can lead the industry into a successful future with our Connected Vending solutions.

We would like to say “Thank You” to everyone who visited us at this year’s stand and helped make the fair a success for us and the entire industry. A big “Thank You” as well to the koelnmesse team for the good work as always.

Successful in-house exhibition on 19th March 2019

Together with our partners, the network operator VR Payment and the system provider Suzohapp, we had invited interested members of our industry to visit our in-house exhibition this year.

That day visitors were able to look behind the scenes of S+M GmbH and talk directly to our specialists from all departments about our comprehensive range of performance regarding payment systems and Connected Vending.

Many questions were asked and answered regarding the topics of Vencube and Vensolutions, cash and cashless payment systems, our reliable product service and much more. We are happy to see an increasing interest in our route-planning, as many colleagues and customers recognize the profitable advantages it brings.

We were delighted with the high number of visitors and high quality of talks and discussions. Thank you very much to everyone who followed our invitation and helped make this year’s in-house exhibition a success.
