TexasFreemason Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 What would the best products be for a small bar. It is in a small town, has pool and darts.No liquor, just beer.
sherlock Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 Like most businesses, what sells well can really vary from one location to another. Nuts is an option, but not a very appealing one giving the high COG, the somewhat short shelf-life, and the mess they make of most machines. The bars I have do well with Boston Baked Beans and gum (some like GB while others prefer tab gum).
TexasFreemason Posted December 6, 2013 Author Posted December 6, 2013 i was thinking I could do peanuts fairly cheaply. The owner asked for Peanut M&M.
sherlock Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 I don't do too many locations with PMM. But, there is one bar location that does pretty good with the PMM when I put some in there. If I was forced to choose between PMM and peanuts, I'd go with PMM. Of course, in my situation, they are both roughly the same COG...in yours, the peanuts sound like they may be cheaper.
TexasFreemason Posted December 6, 2013 Author Posted December 6, 2013 I found peanut m&ms at sams 2 weeks ago for 7.98 for 56 ounces!!!!!!!! Needless to say i grabbed up about 50 pounds.
GagesVending Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 Peanut M&Ms I've found to be a must at most bar locations; especially taverns. I have one bar that the Reese's Pieces absolutely kill it!! Mike and Ikes and Hot Tamales are a hit and miss too. Consider your demographic.
TexasFreemason Posted December 6, 2013 Author Posted December 6, 2013 I don't use M&I or HT because of sticking together. This is a country bar with mainly white people and a few Hispanics
sherlock Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 Why not just install some of what you already stock for other locations? Then keep rotating product until you find the better sellers.
Rick Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 hangover cure? A bar would be the WORST place for that. Besides, bars themselves already sell the hangover cure. It's called alcohol.

TexasFreemason Posted December 8, 2013 Author Posted December 8, 2013 I guess I could sell those vitamins they sell in convenience stores to prevent hangovers.
Billnuts Posted December 9, 2013 Posted December 9, 2013 Well if its a singles bar vend the valentines mints that say I love you your special etc.. second choice would be breath mints... 1 for the ladies 2 for the cops so they don't smell beer on me... advertised as such..
