In the vending space, Gimme's patented plug-and-play solution replaces legacy handhelds to deliver valuable data, like purchasing patterns, and provides operators with better cash accountability, inventory tracking, and machine status data.

For the Gold Startup of the Year in Business Products Industries, judges recognized Gimme for recognizing a need, building a solution, and bringing it to market while creating sustainable advantage. They also noted the Company's data analysis capabilities and meteoric entry into the vending world.

In the Silver Startup of the Year category in Software, the judges cited Gimme's ability to combine technology and supply chain capabilities with real time data synchronization and bringing an innovative solution that brings efficiencies into the vending business. Judges also recognized Gimme's solution for eliminating many old-school, manual practices, and replacing them with valuable insights and innovative technology.

"Each year the judges find the quality and variety of the nominations to be greater than the year before. The 2017 competition was intense and every organization that has won should be proud," said Michael Gallagher, president and founder of the Stevie Awards.

Nicknamed the Stevies for the Greek word meaning "crowned," the awards will be presented to winners at a gala ceremony at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York on Tuesday, June 20.  More than 3,600 nominations from organizations were submitted this year, and more than 190 professionals worldwide participated in the judging process to select this year's Stevie Award winners.
