Setomatic Systems Hires West as West Coast Acct. Mgr.

Has experience in store ownership and brokerage as well as distributor sales

BOCA RATON, Fla. — Ryan West has joined the staff of payment technology supplier Setomatic Systems-SpyderWash as its West Coast account manager and is operating from California, the company reports.

West’s entry into the laundry industry came as a laundromat owner approximately 10 years ago, Setomatic says. He went on to hold laundry equipment sales and laundromat brokerage positions at Elite Business Investments, Golden State Laundry Systems and CSC ServiceWorks.

“One of our main objectives in 2021 was finding the right person to expand and keep up with our rapidly growing footprint on the West Coast,” says John Kelly, director of sales for Setomatic-SpyderWash. “Ryan is extremely well-rounded with experience ranging from equipment sales and brokerage to laundromat ownership to multi-housing. We truly believe Ryan will be a huge asset to our distributor and route operator partners, as well as laundromat owners on the West Coast.”

With his experience, West understands the needs of his customers and will work hard to deliver solutions for those needs, says Gregg Schantz, Setomatic-SpyderWash vice president.

“With the demand for contactless payments at an all-time high, we felt the timing was perfect,” Schantz says. “With Ryan previously working for some of the country’s largest distributors as well as owning stores himself, he will be a great asset to not only Setomatic-SpyderWash but to all our distributors and customers.”

West says he is “beyond excited” to join Setomatic Systems, adding that the company has been at the forefront of payment systems technology “since the start.”
