| Simplicity, Efficiency, and Quality |
Kooler Ice was founded in 2007. In June of 2006, after seeing several ice vending machines out in the market, we began laying out plans for a new ice vending machine. We believed there was a simpler, more efficient way to bring ice to consumers than the new larger ice houses.
We envisioned a machine that was less expensive, compact, efficient and productive. We also believed that by keeping the unit small, it could replace the current ice storage boxes that consumers traditionally purchased ice from at retail outlets across the country.
Our design criteria were straightforward - make it reliable, efficient, productive and easy to service and maintain. Our design provides users with the advantages of fresh ice from a vending machine with the convenience of purchasing ice at retail stores along with other items. |

Thus, the Kooler Ice Vending Machine benefits consumers, retailers and the environment!

Kooler Ice's Vice-President of Operations, Bob Fosson, has worked hard to design this plant as a state of the art, lean manufacturing facility, focused on building a quality products!
Kooler Ice has one goal - to provide its users and distributors with a reliable, durable and well designed machine which will provide a high quality cost efficient product.

| Smart Features |
Siemens has developed the electronics and PLC components for our machine. With this technology, the machine displays alerts and important machine functions on an LCD panel inside the machine. The LCD panel also has resettable counters to track sales. The unit displays a "Sold Out" message on the front panel when it is out of ice or bags.
Remote Access is now available. A modem is hard-wired into the machine allowing remote access to important machine information. The machine will text message the owner if the unit is out of ice or bags, if a door is opened, or if a "fault" code is issued. The user can also text the machine to dispense ice, re-set the bill validator, or he can call the machine and get sales info at any time. Click here for more info.
