Cummins Allison, a provider of ATMs and coin, currency and check processing solutions, has entered a deal with Eden Prairie, Minnesota-based grocery chain Supervalu to provide Money Machine 2 self-service coin counters at store locations in Maryland, Missouri, Illinois and Virginia.

Cummins Allison will manage coin pickup and processing for Supervalu, eliminating the time-consuming task of coin handling and freeing store associates to focus on more valuable, service-related activities, a press release said.

"With these new machines, we are able to provide an easier, more convenient coin counting service to our customers," said Mike Witt, vice president of center store merchandising for Supervalu. "We're pleased to be working with Cummins Allison and look forward to seeing the reaction of customers using these new counters." 

"Our self-service coin programs offer a new alternative for grocers who wish to continue to offer coin-counting services in their stores, but are looking for different choices in a coin redemption program," Cummins Allison VP Jim Weaks said.
