"Forget what you're supposed to offer and dream about the type
of service you could be offering." Those words were said by
Donnie Pemberton, president of The Pepi Companies during the
NAMA OneShow session "Not UR Daddy's Vending: The Evolution
Of Today's Convenient Refreshment Company." Donnie, and his
father, Vic Pemberton, current CEO, have been providing solutions
to customers for over 30 years. They represent two generations,
but are unified in their approach to the future — focusing on
customers, employees and the company. For the full story, www.
