01-03-2006 - Vendia boosts sales resource
Vendia (formerly Benchmark Vending) has appointed a new sales agent to help develop sales.
Vendia has vending operations in the South East, the East Midlands and in the North West and is seeking to expand its territory in the next couple of years.
In order to do that as quickly as possible the company investigated the use of sales agents and has now appointed its first agent in the Midlands area.
Commenting on the new initiative, Mike Potts, Chief Executive Officer of Vendia, said “We have a strong and dedicated sales team in Vendia working on developing our existing territories. But we want to be able to grow beyond those boundaries and sales agents seem an ideal way to make rapid progress whilst minimising risk."
At the same time, Vendia subsidiary Drinkmaster announced the appointment of five new Sales Service Engineers. Drinkmaster supply pre-packed single portion hot drinks, as well as a range of snacks, cold drinks and accessories, to smaller clients throughout the UK. The Drinkmaster offer has enjoyed renewed demand over recent years, and this latest investment in new field based sales staff is expected to give a further boost to Drinkmaster’s sales.
The Vendia Group is on the lookout for more agents and sales staff – with or without a vending background.
Vendia UK Ltd is one of the largest beverage and snack vending companies in the UK. It is part of the international Vendia Group which is based in Holland and also has vending operations in France.
Vendia’s unique strength is its network of strong local operating companies and management teams, who leverage their regional knowledge and experience to deliver better products and services, whatever the required vending package. Vendia companies have particularly strong knowledge and experience in five market sectors: Leisure, Business, Education, Public Service and Retail.
