A Michigan product himself, Jon Holden is creating customer loyalty and strong support for local brands

Vending & OCS Nation Podcast

Jon Holden loves being an operator. He is grateful for the people he works with, the clients he serves and the job that he gets to perform every day.

In this episode Automatic Merchandiser’s Vending & OCS Nation – the podcast for the convenience services industry, host Bob Tullio talks to Jon Holden of All Star Services in Michigan, in a podcast that is both entertaining and inspirational.

Tullio and Holden talk about his journey from the La Cross field to Coca-Cola to All Star Services, where he is clearly a driving force in business development and customer service. Holden is personally inspired by many things - his family, the industry, products that come from Michigan and the business he works for, which is a strong, family-owned operation.

Holden shares his view of the competition, his philosophy of customer service and his approach to sales. He names the suppliers that have helped drive success at All Star Services. He explains why his support of local products makes sense on many levels. Best of all, his description of his three little boys is worth the price of admission.
