Thursday, March 24, 2005

One of the largest student housing developers in the nation has chosen e-Suds laundry network for three new multi housing apartment buildings. The e-Suds solution, which allows students to check availability of washers and dryers online pay with their student ID cards, and receive an email when their laundry is complete, will be installed in laundry rooms at student multi housing complexes at the University of Cincinnati.


“Installing our e-Suds solution in multi complex apartment buildings represents a whole new opportunity,” said Stephen P. Herbert, President and COO, USA Technologies. “Previously, e-Suds was being installed only in laundry rooms on campus, but these three new building complexes are off campus, although linked with the university.”

“We work hard to provide the highest level of laundry services to our customers. e-Suds has been a terrific enhancement to our services and has helped us to secure new contracts, such as with this, and enhance the service we provide to our existing accounts,” said Dave Drake, Vice President of Sales and Marketing, ASI.

USA Technologies’ e-Suds online laundry system has already been installed at a growing number of campuses, including Carnegie Mellon, Cedarville College, Bluffton College and more have been targeted for deployment.

USA Technologies also manufactures the e-Port® cashless transaction device for vending machines and unattended kiosks, and an expanding line of energy management products, specifically aimed at the vending and cooler markets. [end]
