Triton announces winner of oldest retail ATM contest

Indiana convenience store takes honor

Long Beach, Miss., Dec. 9, 2004- King Oil, owner of Mara-Mart convenience stores in Indiana, has won Triton Systems’ 10th anniversary contest to find the ATM manufacturer’s oldest retail machine still in operation with the original owner. Triton President Brian Kett said both King Oil and the independent sales distributor who sold the ATM will receive new Triton 9100 models.

Dan Linville, service manager for IFS Cash Processing Systems – an affiliate of the Kahuna Business Group - recalls installing the Triton ATM model 9500 on May 15, 1995, at a Mara-Mart in Walton, Ind. “I installed this ATM myself working with technical support at Triton,” he said. “At that time, we were selling machines made by another manufacturer. This was the first Triton machine we sold and we liked it so well that we quit selling the other brand ATM.”

“Congratulations to King Oil and IFS,” said Triton President Brian Kett. “This machine has served them well for nine years and supports our belief that Triton makes the world’s most reliable ATMs. I’m certain they will be equally pleased with their new Triton 9100 monochrome screen model, the best selling ATM in the market today.”

King Oil General Manager Denny Wiseman said, “We’ve been happy with the Triton ATMs we’ve purchased. We’ve had several different Triton models and they’ve all served us well.”

Linville said the Triton 9500 ATM he installed in 1995 at the Mara-Mart in Walton has had numerous upgrades and continues to work at another King Oil Mara-Mart location in Burlington, Ind.

The contest was held to commemorate the ATM manufacturer’s entry into retail locations ten years ago when a convenience store in Diamondhead, Miss., installed the first bill-dispensing ATM designed specifically for retail use. It was a Triton 9500 like the model used at King Oil’s Mara-Marts in Indiana. Since that time, ATMs have been installed in convenience stores, supermarkets, shopping malls and a multitude of other retail locations.
