The Fotomat Corporation, which operates film‐service kiosks, announced it had signed an agreement with the Paramount Pictures Corporation to rent and sell movies through its more than 3,700 North American retail stores.
The agreement provides Fotomat with non‐exclusive access to Paramount products made generally available to the home market in video‐tape or disk form and provides Paramount with non‐exclusive but guaranteed access to the Fotomat distribution system.
