A TRUSTED HISTORY
eVending.com is proud to be a leader in online vending equipment sales, but did you know, we were manufacturing and selling vending machines before the invention of the color TV let alone the internet! Purchasing vending equipment is an important investment and one that should not be taken lightly. Just buying the cheapest one you can, may lead to costly trouble down the road. We suggest getting to know a vending company before doing business with them. eVending.com is a Wittern Group company that traces its history back to 1931 in Des Moines, Iowa. We are proud of our history and that our vending machines have been trusted for so long. Read on to learn about our vending machine history below.
Our founder, F.A.Wittern started Hawkeye Novelty in 1931 selling peanut machines. In 1947 Hawkeye Novelty became FAWN; an acronym incorporating his initials of Francis Arthur WitterN. As business grew FAWN manufactured cigarette vendors, popcorn vendors, snack machines, hot and cold beverage machines, as well as many different non-food merchandising equipment. FAWN has made a name for itself in providing quality vending products and services for a growing industry. Today there are a handful of company’s under the Wittern family umbrella.
We’ve been successful in the vending industry because we know how to manufacture quality equipment that will stand the test of time and we take care of our customers. Our equipment is carefully manufactured with the best materials here in Des Moines, Iowa in our 375,000 sq-ft plant.
You can trust the equipment we produce but also the service and support we give to our customers. What has helped to separate us from the competition is the reliable service we can provide the customer. In addition, in 1952 we established our in-house financing corporation to offer flexible payment plans to our customers. We want our machines to be affordable for all types of vending operators. A means to help allow machines to pay for themselves with the profits from just a handful of vends per day!
