Teams Up to Save Energy in the Vending Machine Management Industry **Seattle, WA October 11, 2006** -- [Vending Solutions](https://vendinggroup-2491373.hs-sites.com/), a full service vending management company, and Pinnacle, an American Management Services Company, are teaming up to lower energy usage of apartment buildings around the Northwest. [Vending Solutions](https://vendinggroup-2491373.hs-sites.com/) is working in conjunction with SBW Consulting to install VendingMisersâ on snack and soda vending machines located on Pinnacle’s entire portfolio of properties.
