It was 40 years ago that we founded our wonderful family business known as Kent & Sussex Vending… Much has changed since then with expansion and significant improvement to the quality of drinks and equipment available, which we now provide to customers nationwide. One thing that has not changed is our core values and commitment to offering good old fashioned customer service, and we still remain an independent family owned and run business.
However, for me personally it’s time to hang up my coffee cup and spend more time with family and friends. It has been an amazing journey… one that would not have been possible without the support and dedication of the wonderful team of staff both past and present, many who have been with us from the early days of the business. We have also enjoyed professional relationships with some of the best manufactures and suppliers from our industry, many of which have endured for decades… and have been instrumental in our success over the years.
And of course, I could not sign-off without thanking the thousands of customers we have supplied over the years… it has been a pleasure, and there is no doubt the business will continue to flourish and grow, with the remaining family members and team at your service.
I will officially retire on the 28th of March 2025, and you never know, I might finally find the time to take up a hobby or two… and you may just find me on the golf course!
I wish you all the very best for the future.
Richard Collyer
