BELLINGHAM, Wash. — The Kiosk Exchange, a wholly owned subsidiary of SMOC and its SMO Multimedia division, has been awarded a contract from the Army & Air Force Exchange Service. According to a news release, the contract calls for the deployment of 118 digital photo units in 115 Army and Air Force installations in the U.S., including Hawaii, Alaska and Guam.
"We are extremely pleased with the award," said SMO Multimedia president Robert Gallner. "We felt that we could provide the best solution for AAFES and its customers and it showed in us being awarded the contract. We feel we offer the best stand-alone instant photo kiosk in the industry today. With the popularity and growth of the digital camera market, consumers are looking for convenient, high-quality options for printing. The EZpix solution is very different from many current solutions on the market today in that it is completely focused on self-service and requires no counter assistance whatsoever. The units are also remotely managed 24 hours a day through a sophisticated network program that can automatically troubleshoot any potential operating issues. Important items like paper levels and standard maintenance issues are reported in real time."
