SV24-7, a family business with over 60 years of vending industry experience, offers vending and office coffee services, including micro markets.
Ken MacIsaac, UK business leader at Lavazza Professional, said: “By welcoming such a well-established and reputable provider to the Lavazza Professional family, we can continue to deliver a ‘one-stop-shop’ solution for machines, drinks, snacks and exceptional service to customers in the central belt of Scotland; from Glasgow to Edinburgh, to Tayside and everything in between”.
He added: “The changes have been well received, and we’re looking forward to unlocking the opportunities that the acquisition presents".
Fiona Chambers, former director of SV24-7, commented: “Over the years, we built our business on providing our clients with the most effective vending solutions, underpinned by our commitment to service excellence and a product portfolio tailored specifically to the needs of each client – aligning perfectly with Lavazza Professional".
“We have built strong relationships with our customers over the last 11 years, so with both businesses sharing the same values, it was a logical step for us to move the operation when the opportunity arose.”
