Scott "Zig" Ziegler
Scott is the founder of Frontline Smart Vending and has proudly served as a Firefighter for 22 years. He currently serves the City of Detroit as a Sergeant at Ladder 31. His career in public service has shaped his commitment to honesty, reliability, and putting people first. Scott founded Frontline to provide businesses with modern, hassle-free vending solutions backed by exceptional customer service and dependable support.
Amanda Ziegler
Amanda sparked the idea in Scott's head to start Frontline by sending him videos of smart vending machines. So this is her fault. Amanda proudly supports Frontline Smart Vending alongside Scott, while continuing her full-time service in the U.S. Army as a Sergeant Major. Her years of military leadership have instilled the values of integrity, discipline, and service that are reflected in everything we do. As a military family business, we are proud to bring those same principles to every customer we serve.
