Customer wants sandwiches and lunch options...

[Glitch]

Can you guys point me in the right direction on what you do when you have a customer like this?

What machines would be the best options?

What lunch options would you offer?
Where do you get the best prices them?

Need much more info before making any suggestions. What type account is it? How many employees? What are sales from other machines? Do you provide all the machines at this location?  Are there commissions with this account?  All this figures into whether or not to offer food vending at all.

It's a new indoor golf place.  They were pretty busy when I was there 10+ people per hour and they rotate.  No machines there.  I'd have to get a machine for it.  If it does more than $500 in a month, then they get 10%.  They want to keep selling snacks and drinks.  They're getting alcohol license soon so they can sell bottles of beer.  But they want something to keep people there with refrigerated food options for quick lunch and dinner options.

Side note: Maybe I need one of those pizza vending machines haha.  Where would you even get one of those in the states?  I've seen them in Europe and Japan.

I won't sell food unless a location does a minimum of $300/week from snacks and soda.  And even then, at least 30% of the machine is just going to be beverages like teas, energy drinks, etc...

Most locations want food machines and most locations are unprofitable with food machines.

I'm curious if they need food offered in the building to get the liquor license.  If your state requires food to be served on site for them to offer alcohol?

That would be a poor location for a food machine.  Snacks yes, food no.  And that's from experience.
