Our Story
Since 1972 the partnership of Manco Automatics, created by John Manion and Terence O’Connor, has been supplying quality gaming equipment to social clubs in and around Greater Manchester.
In 1984 Chris Manion, son of John, joined the team to help ease the increasing workload that came from the change in legislation that allowed bingo halls to move from having 2 jackpot machines, to having as many AWP machines (subject to the approval of the local authority) as they liked.
In 1988 Terence O’Connor retired and his share in the business was purchased by Chris Manion and his brother Derek Manion, whose administrative background was quickly put to full use in the office.
Sadly, in 1990 John Manion lost his battle with leukaemia; his share of the business passed on to Chris and Derek.
