CNC, under the leadership of Kelley Dayton and Shaun Dayton,
second and third-generation managers, has a storied 50+ year
history in the vending business. Founded in 1970, the company was
one of the first ten franchises of Canteen. Operating approximately
550-560 vending machines and 20 micro markets, CNC has taken a bold
step in becoming the first Canteen franchise to go “all-in” with
Cantaloupe’s solutions.
The comprehensive transition to Cantaloupe’s products and
services started in October 2022, and includes a complete
changeover to Cantaloupe’s G11 card readers, the implementation of
the Seed Pro vending management system, and the replacement of
previous micro market equipment with the Cantaloupe Go line of
kiosks. Additionally, CNC is working to add Cantaloupe’s Cooler
CaféTM in certain locations to expand its offerings to current
customers.
“Our decision to switch from our previous vending management
system and cashless payment provider to Cantaloupe’s full suite of
solutions was driven by a need for a technology partner capable of
breaking through the limitations we faced with prior suppliers,”
noted Shaun Dayton, operations manager of Canteen of Northern
California. “Working with Cantaloupe on innovative solutions to
enhance our business efficiency has been a game-changer. What
really sold us was Cantaloupe’s Remote Price Change feature within
Seed, which set Cantaloupe apart from competitors and helped us
address an urgent need to be able to manage prices and inflation
impacts efficiently and effectively.”
The partnership not only showcases Cantaloupe’s leadership in
vending technology but also reinforces the company’s commitment to
supporting operators through business transitions and growth.
Jeff Dumbrell, Cantaloupe’s chief revenue officer emphasizes,
“Our partnership with operator customers shapes the way we develop
every single one of our products, especially Seed. It’s not just a
platform. It’s a revolutionary way for vending operators to see and
know all areas of their business. Seed brings a new dimension of
cost-savings and revenue growth to operators, supported by
Cantaloupe’s dedicated team of experts who are there to ensure each
customer’s success.”
CNC has already experienced the benefits of Seed, including
significant cost savings and increased revenue. Seed’s
comprehensive reporting tools have also revealed valuable insights
into CNC’s business, which Dayton has been thrilled about.
“Our cost savings have been so substantial that we’ve actually
been able to use those savings to give our staff a raise,” said
Shaun Dayton. “I’ve never worked with a program that is so robust
and powerful, and the customer service from Cantaloupe has been
phenomenal.”
Cantaloupe’s success with CNC illustrates the benefits of the
company’s ongoing strategy to expand its mid-size operator base and
underscores the value of the company as a technology and software
leader. For CNC, it shows the vast network of Canteen operators,
and the industry at large, how modernizing equipment and payment
systems has fostered growth and innovation, demonstrating that
Cantaloupe’s solutions are well-suited for operators of all
sizes.
