Types of Vending Machines
When it comes to picking the right vending machine, it simply comes down to understanding the types of vending machines available and deciding which ones are best suited for your business. Things to consider are the number of your staff/customers and offering food and drinks best suited to their wants and needs. At Venda Valet we offer a wide variety of machines from little too large to fit into most spaces and facilitate for up to 100 or 1000s of people. Our variety of machines offer snacks, cold drinks, Hot drinks, sandwiches and meals, water and even frozen slush beverages! As a gesture of good will we’ve decided to breakdown the different types of vending machines available and list scenarios in which they might be viable for your business.
Snack & Bottle Combi Vending Machines
- These type of machines offer a combination of crisp, chocolates and sweets with also a smaller selection of cold drink can and bottles.
- Great machine to offer a variety of food and small selection of drinks, ideal for smaller size businesses with less demand than larger businesses.
- Offering food AND drink in one machine suits smaller businesses or spaces as you wouldn’t need two machines to facilitate food and drinks.
- Won’t be as well suited for higher numbers of staff/customers with a demand for cold drinks as they tend to sell out quickly, a can and bottle machine or additional snack & can would be recommended.
