royalforest Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 Will a combo work if they sell 20 soda's a day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mission vending Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 That's almost a case a day, it ought to be fine if your go with cans to have more capacity. Some of the combos out there can hold around 10-12 cases so you would be looking a 1X a week service, or stretch it out a little longer to 1X per 8-9 business days.

royalforest Posted November 19, 2010 Author Share Posted November 19, 2010 Is there a better solution other then a combo or would you put in a combo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mission vending Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 If you've got one then put it in. If not, look at your existing inventory to see what you might have that will work before you go buy something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royalforest Posted November 20, 2010 Author Share Posted November 20, 2010 This guy wants snacks so it has to be a combo or a soda and snack machine. They sell 20 sodas a day. Which equipment would you put in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mission vending Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 In that case I`d probably go with the combo. The reasoning is that I don`t think it will be a very good snack account. So a combo with fewer selections will have less issues with out of dates. Either that or a small snack machine with a larger drink machine.

RJT Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 How does he know they sell 20 drinks a day? Is he currently selling drinks? This would have to be a very busy barber shop with many chairs. I would not do a barber shop at all but that is just me. If I did honor box vending I would do that put not a machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dixienormas2 Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 I currently have a soda machine in a barber shop (Town of approx 40,000 people and this is a bustling shop with 5 chairs and they have a steady crowd more often than not) I sell cans @ 75 cents each and Monster drinks @ 2.50 each. I average 80-100 vends every time I service. (1st and the 15Th of every month) My biggest sellers are Pepsi, Dr. Pepper, Orange and Grape Fanta, and Mountain dew. All 5 flavors sell fairly even to each other in volume. Monster is a DISTANT last and only in there due to multiple requests. The barber shop owner has a snack machine that he owns and it sits next to my soda machine. He constantly complains of slow sales on his end. Truth be told I let him use my Sam's card to stock up when he got the machine and he hasn't ask to use it again and its been 5 months. I guess every barber shop could be different, but this is how mine is. Personally I would just stick the soda machine in and call it good. I don't think to many people go for a quick cut and decide they want a pastry or bag of chips. But will grab a quick soda. Just my 2 cents.

royalforest Posted November 23, 2010 Author Share Posted November 23, 2010 Thanks! I am just going by what he says about 20 sodas a day. He wants snacks so I guess my only way is to put in a combo. I am hearing that these new type are barber shops are a big hit for kids to get their haircut. Will see if it does what he says. Thanks again.

Dixienormas2 Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 That is what I was thinking when he said 5 months ago. Not really any of my business.......I don't really think he had a very good mix either.....no candy bars, it was all trail mix, doritos, oreos, and pringles packs. But still I bet it all is VERY stale....maybe someone bought one and spread the word never buy again! haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
