Reanne Zahn is not one to waste time. A retail support manager for Summit Correctional Services, Zahn has exemplified excellence and efficiency. From operational execution to collaborative problem solving, she consistently makes a positive impact. 

That impact was celebrated recently, when she was named as one of the 2026 Most Influential Women in Convenience Services from Automatic Merchandiser and VendingMarketWatch.com. This annual list recognizes top leaders who are strengthening their operations, and enhancing the customer experience.

“Being recognized with this award is truly an honor and something I’m incredibly grateful for,” said Zahn. “To be included alongside some of the most influential and respected leaders in the industry is both humbling and inspiring.”

Zahn’s strategy for success doesn’t come from excelling in one area, but from staying involved and connected every step of the way, no matter what program is being implemented. Whether it is site preparation, equipment selection, training across multiple disciplines, or follow-ups to ensure her field teams are set up for success, this attention to detail has quicky made her an invaluable part of the Summit team.

“I am thrilled to see Reanne receive this award as a testament to the work she does supporting our team,” said Roshon Cody, President of Summit. “In just a few short years, she has made a significant impact on operations through attention to detail, and a hands-on strategy in every aspect of our business. I am so proud to have her on our team.”

Even though the personal awards are meaningful, Zahn gives all the credit back to her team, staying focused on that collaborative approach which has guided her so far.

“This recognition is not just a reflection of my work, but of the incredible team I’m fortunate to be a part of,” said Zahn. “Their dedication, support, and shared commitment to making an impact are what make everything we do possible. I truly couldn’t do this without them.”
