When Tim and Burt Matthews were pulling a wagon through their Fruit Heights neighborhood selling snow cones or delivering homemade bread, they were learning that providing convenient ways to give people things they want is a nearly certain route to success.
The brothers tried snow cone stands, but realized that, if they took the service to their potential customers, they'd get more revenue. Later, as adults, they partnered in owning a chain of convenience stores that was nationally recognized for its innovation and customer service focus — providing convenient ways for people to get the things that they want.
That same lesson marks the brothers' success leading their company, Kaysville-based Grant Victor.
Grant Victor has almost 3,000 automatic teller machines deployed nationwide in places that make it easy for consumers to access the company's services.
Grant Victor also is moving into other businesses that facilitate consumers' financial transactions. This direction is the result of the brothers' conviction that sticking solely to the formula that led to their success is a sure route to future obsolescence.
To ensure that, as technological innovations change its market and so the company can continue to thrive, Grant Victor owns eGlobal, ATMequipment and OptConnect.
These businesses provide ATMs and bill-payment solutions for businesses; supply ATMs, parts and supplies; and provide cost-effective and innovative connectivity for North American ATMs.
