Suzo Happ to celebrate its 60th anniversary at ICE

The forthcoming ICE in February is set to be a memorable occasion for Suzo-Happ. The European branch of Suzo-Happ was founded in 1955 and ICE will be a great opportunity for the company as a whole to celebrate this milestone.

Comestero Group is also a household name for change machines and cash-in machines, with more then 10 different models, such as Rock and Swing, withunique benefits. These are joined by the PRO range, such as Jolly PRO and Dual Coin PRO. The electronic coin selection from Comestero Group – the RM5 Evolution and RM5 HD – have an installed base of well over one million. These can be found in all applications, including the tailored version for the Italian market'snew slot games, including the Suzo-Happ Flow hopper.

This ICE will also mark the first international exhibition for Suzo-Happ as exclusive global distributor for TransAct, with the agreement having being extended to Europe as from January 1, 2015. The Epic 950 printer from TransAct is the perfect solution for ticket-in, ticket-out (TITO) applications. Currently installed in over half a million slots in casinos throughout the world, its success stands out significantly in Europe. For example, the Italian VLT (video lottery terminal) market and the British FOBT (fixed-off betting terminal) market both use TransAct printers exclusively. Operators are invited to see just how many benefits the Epicentral, the promotional software system, can offer.

The extended Suzo-Happ product range will be on proud display. This includes the Bill-to-Bill bank note recycler, which is the preferred choice for a whole range of applications around the world. Suzo-Happ is known as the ‘hopper and topper company’ and not only customers but all interested people are invited to get to know just which of these products are the best fit for their needs – such as the Cube, Flow and Evolution hoppers and the Xenon LED, Towerlight and Video Topper alongside, a number of RBG light strips to brighten up any slot machine. Suzo-Happ offers more choice with its PRO brand which includes the VISION PRO, PRINTER PRO AND BILLIARD PRO. The wide range of push buttons, including the LCD push buttons, will also be on display.

Special mention should be made on the role Suzo-Happ is playing in increasing its vertical integration service. Suzo-Happ should not just be seen as a supplier of spare parts and components. Suzo-Happ offers more vertical integration possibilities – one such example is the push button panel that saves manufacturers from having to integrate push buttons individually into their machines. This level of vertical integration has been extended to include contract manufacturing services. Manufacturers have the choice of how much manufacturing integration Suzo-Happ offers, from part-machine manufacturing to complete outsourcing of machine hardware requirements. This enables manufacturers to focus more on their value-add, in other words their software and their games

Naturally Suzo-Happ will be exhibiting the solutions of further key distribution partners, such as ELO, Innovative Technology, MEI and Assa.

Harald Wagemaker, Executive Vice President Sales & Marketing of Gaming and Casino EMA, sent out a warm welcome to ICE visitors, stating, “We are in celebratory mood. Please come and toast our 60 years in business with us at ICE. And then take the opportunity to see just how much we can do for you. We look forward to seeing you at ICE”.
