putrevus Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Hi All, Thanks in advance for your help. Can I vend 15.2 OZ minute maid orange juice in Royal 660 or Vendo 721. Do I need a glass front for this. I have location which is insisting for it. Thanks again for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 If that's in a can then yes. If in a plastic bottle, probably yes if it works at a 12 oz can setting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
putrevus Posted June 20, 2017 Author Share Posted June 20, 2017 It is not a can, I can't find orange juice cans in my area, Sams and Costco do not carry it. It is 15.2 oz bottle from Coke bottler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Walmart carries a couple in that size, minute maid and Tropicana I think.Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can stackers like vendo 721 or royal 660 vend them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corvus Corax Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 I am pretty sure the Vendo 721 can, since I've seen them set up for red Bull cans.Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngryChris Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 If the minute maid are the hour glass shaped bottles, they can vend but they can also jam due to the shape. I just wouldn't stock it completely full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corvus Corax Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 I have a Vendo 720 that I put Deerpark 20oz waters in. I usually put no more than 30 in which is over half full and I have no problems. And the Deerpark's are a little squishy. I would go buy a 6pk or 12pk of each and see which have the stiffer plastic. You might be able to go three deep. You can put some cans on top, maybe a case to wait them down and see if there are any issues. I personally love the Vendo 720, it is my favorite machine, and the 721 is even better since it is shimless.Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have Royal 660 and Vendo 721 in my stock but I need to buy glassfront. Sam's sells 10 oz bottles which I don't think you can vend in either vendo or royal.

AngryChris Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 The 10 oz vend in a bevmax but that's an expensive investment just to vend orange juice. I have vended the minute maid before. It did work, but not nearly as reliably as common shapes and sizes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZVendor Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Do the 15.2 oz bottles you found. They will probably work best in a stacker. You don't need to worry about how much you put in a column because they probably won't sell well and you don't want too much in the machine anyway.

Corvus Corax Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Try to find a place that sells the 12oz Tropicana in cans. That would solve all your problems.Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orsd Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 You are most likely not going to sell much OJ, so just order it from Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Floridas-Natural-Premium-Orange-Juice/dp/B00KIJ0H2E/ref=pd_sbs_325_1?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B00KIJ0H2E&pd_rd_r=J0G5QHKDPHM226KFFSE0&pd_rd_w=D5Eyi&pd_rd_wg=shgwC&psc=1&refRID=J0G5QHKDPHM226KFFSE0 and sell at cost Alternately, you can get the San Pelligrino carbonated juices and market it as a premium product.

Corvus Corax Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Slightly unrelated, but the Walmart here has a bunch of flavored sodas, in the Hispanic section.Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corvus Corax Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Good luck, I personally love orange juice but hate paying $1.50-2.00 for 10 or so ozs.Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngryChris Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 I acquired part of a route where the owner sold out to a well known mega size vending company. They didn't want the slower locations. I got them with product in them. A particular location had three bottles of minute maid oj. Fast forward 6 months later, a lady asked when I would be putting OJ back in because it's sold out and she drinks it all the time. It had JUST sold out. If course, she tried to convince me that I sell a lot of it because she buys it all. And no, I won't restock it. I'm going to demand price increases or cancel the account.
