On Track Innovations Ltd (OTI) will now supply its EasyFuel Plus solution in very large numbers to its petroleum partner, Tokheim. Tokheim is a major manufacturer and service provider of fuel dispensing and automation tools.
Since the beginning of Tokheim's point of sale controller collaboration with EasyFuel Plus in September 2010, these controllers have been deployed at commercial fleet and retail petroleum stations across 12 countries. Currently, the deployment for a well-known petroleum retailer is in progress across four markets in Europe.
In a statement, Ofer Tziperman, CEO of OTI, said, "The continued adoption of our EasyFuel Plus technology by Tokheim reflects the increasing strength of our strategic partnership and Tokheim's ability to successfully demonstrate how our technology secures and simplifies the payment processes. The demand for EasyFuel Plus has gained momentum as customers globally recognize the benefits of automated vehicle identification and the need for quality data. We therefore envisage that our petroleum products will serve as one of the main growth engines for our business."
OTI’s EasyFuel Plus product for Tokheim has been delivered to a minimum of 250 locations. Till date, Tokheim has received over 1,000 nozzles and 7,500 vehicles from OTI. The incorporation of Tokheim's point of sale controllers and application business rules has been handled by OTI Africa. SmartFuel, an important component of Tokheim’s commercial fleet solution, helps in decreasing scams and enhancing fuel administration.
Kurt Dillen, general manager, Systems & Electronics Business Unit at Tokheim, said, "It has been an interesting journey to develop and package with OTI the perfect vehicle identification solution for our fuel retail and fleet customers. As a result of a great effort and a high level of cooperation between the engineering teams of OTI and Tokheim, we can state today that we have the best-in-class solution in the world to simplify payment, increase throughput and improve the overall refueling experience. Tokheim is not only offering this product solution, but with our local service organizations we are also able to provide after sales service. I am convinced that Tokheim will deliver this easy-to-use solution to many more markets and customers in the following years."
