EL DORADO, Ark. -- Murphy USA has selected Armor Safe Technologies as its exclusive safe supplier for its gas stations, and the two companies have entered into a multi-year support agreement for all of its existing smart safes.
"We are honored that Murphy USA has awarded us this multi-year support contract and to further strengthen our partnership with Murphy USA," said Larry Robinson, president of Armor Safe.
Murphy USA and Armor Safe have shared a partnership for nearly a decade. Early on, Armor worked closely with Murphy USA to design and manufacture a custom solution suitable for Murphy USA's operation and the footprint of its kiosk locations.
It fit all of the functionality of an intelligent cash-counting and cash-dispensing safe within the 21-inch-wide footprint typical of cash-controllers, the preceding cash management technology. While cash controllers could only dispense cash and coin and control a door on a time-delay, they lacked an audit trail to track user activity, bill validators to count and validate cash deposits and detailed reporting capabilities, features which dramatically simplify tasks such as closing out shifts, ending business days and preparing bank deposits. Armor Safe's design allowed them to replace their aging cash-controllers without making any counter modifications, the company said.
Armor Safe's CacheSYSTEM 7000 Series safes are deployed in approximately two-thirds of Murphy USA's locations, a figure that will continue to grow over the coming years as Murphy's safes need replaced.
The Colony, Texas-based Armor Safe specializes in the development, manufacturing and servicing of the industry's most innovative cash-management systems. Armor safes validate, count and secure cash in cassettes ready for delivery to the bank, establishing an effective closed-loop solution to many of the toughest challenges facing retailers: loss prevention, employee accountability and financial transparency.
Murphy USA Inc., El Dorado, Ark., operates more than 1,250 gas stations under the Murphy USA and Murphy Express brands across 23 states.
