Five Star Breaktime Solutions buys Savannah Healthy Vending in Georgia expansion

Five Star Breaktime Solutions’ acquisition of Savannah Healthy Vending expands its vending, micro market and coffee service footprint across the growing coastal Georgia market.

Five Star Breaktime Solutions acquired Savannah Healthy Vending, a full-service convenience services operator based in Savannah, Ga., and expanded its presence across coastal Georgia.

Tommy and Holly Hacker had owned and operated Savannah Healthy Vending since 2015. The company built its business around providing fresh, healthier snacks and beverages through vending and micro markets, serving workplaces, schools, healthcare facilities and fitness centers.

With the acquisition, Five Star Breaktime Solutions adds more than 200 vending machines, 32 breakroom markets and nearly three dozen coffee service locations to its operation. The company plans to integrate these accounts into its existing regional network to maintain service levels and route efficiency.

“We are thrilled to welcome Savannah Healthy Vending to Five Star,” said Pat Barger, director of mergers and acquisitions for Five Star Breaktime Solutions. “Our team appreciates the trust the Hackers have placed in us as a partner to carry forward service to their clients. This deal supports our focus on accelerating growth in Savannah.”

With his wife Holly, Thomas Hacker will assist Five Star during the transition period to support service continuity and preserve customer relationships as operations are consolidated under the Five Star brand.
