A history of

Automated Dispensing Innovation

IDS was a pioneer in the supply vending market and as the first in the marketplace, has maintained its advantage by improving and enhancing its offering since.

Our success comes from our rich history in the automated vending business and as part of The Wittern Group of companies, we have over 85 years in the automatic merchandising business. The Wittern Group’s founder, F.A. Wittern, was known as an innovator and today, the company is its third-generation of family leadership.

Today, we are the world’s largest manufacturer of integrated smart vending machines and supply lockers. From the highest quality equipment manufactured in the U.S.A. at our 500,000 square foot production facility located in Des Moines, Iowa to our proprietary back-end software integration, IDS Vending has the most sophisticated solution and in-depth understanding of our customers’ needs.

While we are always looking forward in our work, we would not have gotten to where we are now without our dedication to offering quality equipment to the marketplace. We recognize that if we take care of our customers, we take care of ourselves.

When it comes to controlling your

Organization's Efficiency, IDS is the Intelligent Choice.
