Wegmans Taps CardTronics for Chain-wide Retail ATM Network

Regional independent Wegmans Food Markets has selected Cardtronics as its exclusive provider of ATM services to its chain of 77 supermarkets located in New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Virginia, and Maryland.

Installation of Cardtronics-owned ATMs has already begun, with full-deployment of 86 machines expected by early summer. Select Wegmans Food Markets locations will house multiple Cardtronics ATMs, and some of the ATMs will be placed in Wegmans administrative offices for employee use.

"Wegmans is a perfect illustration of what Cardtronics means when describing its retail ATM network as being in the 'right' locations," said Rick Updyke, president, U.S. Business Group, Cardtronics. “Reflecting on nearly 100 years of business success by Wegmans, as well as recent expansion of the chain, Cardtronics has once again placed its ATMs in high-traffic retail locations. Having earned a reputation for putting a premium on customer convenience services, Wegmans has built the kind of brand loyalty that helps make Cardtronics' retail ATM network so attractive for financial institutions eager to extend their brands into retail locations."
