The Israeli-based Tigapo, cloud-based arcade management systems company has announced the appointment of Chris Vecchione as sales manager.
Vecchione has 35 years’ experience within the coin-operated entertainment and gaming industry.
He was most recently with MVP Network Sales, but his career has spanned arcade game sales, placements and consultancy work for fun centres, ATM sales and equipment for bar and restaurant businesses. He has also represented VR hardware and solutions for amusement locations and for Sacoa’s cashless payment systems.
Between 2004 and 2013 Vecchione owned and operated the largest street amusement route in Pennsylvania, US. He commented: “I have spent the lion’s share of my career in front of both street and FEC operators and locations so the shift to selling mobile payment systems will be seamless.”
Vecchione will be working with Tigapo’s director of sales, Ted Parsons, and joins the team led by US-based CEO Sid Banon, working to roll out new touch-free cashless payment systems to FECs and amusement and vending route operators.
