macooper Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Hi all! My husband and I purchased a 6 selection soda & 12 selection snack machine and 4-head bulk candy machine about a year ago located at a machine shop near our home and it's been going well. We are going to be purchasing 3 more snack/soda combo units, a snack machine and 10 3-head bulk candy machines this week (used and all placed). I was just wondering if anyone had any tips or suggestions as we expand our business? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Welcome macooper! Glad you are enjoying the vending business. I'm especially glad that you took a year to learn some of the ins and outs of the business before expanding. Growing slow is a smart way to do it and the more experience you gain the better equipped you will be to make a decision should a large opportunity come your way. One thing you will find with additional snack machines is economy of scale. You will begin to sell through your inventory faster and have to discard less expired product. Good luck. There should be others chiming in soon. Don't hesitate to post questions to the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Priusjames Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Welcome to the forum, you'll find lots of helpful people (and their opinions) here to help and share experiences. I'm trying to add to my snack machine numbers, too, in order to reduce stale product. In fact, I already own two more that I've been getting ready to deploy. Good luck with your expansion!
