“We are pleased that we have continued to grow our revenues quarter over quarter. Our initial roll-out into the United States has started well, although it did not add significant revenues for the quarter. We believe the prepaid industry, particularly in North America, will experience an increased rate of growth in the months to come,” said Doug Buchanan, President and Chief Executive Officer of VendTek.

“Our growth to-date has come primarily from our established markets – Canada, UAE and China. As we see more success in our newer markets like the United States, we can expect our margins to increase,” said Nurez Khimji, Chief Financial Officer of VendTek.
