 During
the first decades of the last century one company produced almost all cash registers on the market. It was NCR, - National
Cash register from USA. They developed the first mechanical cash register
before 1900 and thus made fraud more difficult for dishonest employees
in the retail and bar businesses. The cash register concept was welcomed enthusiastically all over the world.
However,
the Swedish retail chain, COOP, did not approve of NCR´s monopoly. Theydecided to make they own cash register. THe task
was given to a young machine engineer by the name of Birger Högfors,
and in 1930 the first cash register was released. As the prospects looked good, COOP decided to start large-scale production
with both domestic and international sales in mind.
In
1934 Birger Högfors left COOP and started the SWEDA Company.
New cash registers were developed and produced for both
Sweden and foreign markets. With good market acceptance the SWEDA Company prospered and the market share grew steadily.
In 1959, after fifteen years of steady expansion the industrial conglomerate Litton Industries purchased SWEDA. THis initiated
a long period of ownershio changes, mergers, and finally bankruptcy. It
is worth mentioning is that during the late 1980´s the merged company Hugin-Sweda was one of the largest pure point-of-sales company in the world.
Today the SWEDA trademark still stands for quality designed Swedish cash registers. Sweda is still
well known both in Sweden and in the internatinal marketplace. Sweda Retail AB is a fully owned subsidiary to one of the largest
retail companies in Sweden. It owns all trade mark rights as well as
product rights referring to the brand name Sweda.

| John Timco, 1952 in Livonia, Michigan |
Our company had been a family owned and operated business for over fifty years. First it was Cash
Register Company and then Corporation since 1967. When my father, John Timco passed away in 1989, the company was sold
and since is no longer in business. John became one of the largest cash register dealers for
Sweda Cash Register
Company and also was sales star in New York City. However, the spirit of my father's heart is in mine. I like
to collaborate with people whose values put integrity first and you
will find the right kind of company. Integrity is consistency of actions, values, methods, measures, principles, expectations and outcome. As a holisticvalue system's abstraction depth and range of applicable interaction may also function as significant factors in identifying integrity due to their congruence
or lack of congruence with empirical observation. A value system may evolve over time while retaining integrity if those who
espouse the values account for and resolve inconsistencies. concept, it judges the quality of a system in terms of
its ability to achieve its own goals. A Integrity may be seen as the quality of having a sense of honesty and truthfulness in regard to the motivations for one's actions. The term "hypocrisy" is used in contrast to integrity for asserting that one part of a value system demonstrably conflicts with
another, and to demand that the parties holding apparently conflicting values account for the discrepancy or change their
beliefs to improve internal consistency.
