COMMERCIAL VENDING VERSUS BULK VENDING

Bulk machine sellers will try to convince you that their machines are the best, have the highest profit and fastest empty rate. Commercial vending machines like the Antares vending machines are a better choice for you if you are thinking of starting a vending business.

Bulk vending machines are manufactured in other countries like China for very low prices and their sales mark up is huge. The machines do not empty as fast as they would like you to believe. Bulk machines can probably do well if they are placed in bowling alleys or a shopping mall. You will find that people place these machines in out of the way places where unless they are operating “capsules” the food or gum in the machine can go stale.

Many commercial or industrial locations do not like these types of machines because they can crate a mess when they are used.

Some time ago bulk vending machines used to sell very well but now you find that after a customer has purchased one, they usually after a few months want to trade the machine for commercial vending machine like those that are offered by Antares Corporation. They got to find out that they were not making a good living from these machines.

Customers, who have about 50 — 100 commercial machines like the Antares vending machines, can make a good living from these machines and we have part time machine operators with a few machines who make enough to supplement their regular salary. A full size can soda and snack machine such as the Antares Refreshment Center has the potential to empty out at $800-$1000 for the pair. Once you have the right location doing good business will not be a problem for you.

More people drink sodas and eat snacks than chew gum or buy a capsule toy. A recent survey showed that product sales for soft drinks were over $20 billion, $9 million for snacks and confections as compared to ½ billion dollars for all bulk vending.

There are various reasons why commercial vending machines are preferred to bulk machines. For example bulk machines do not make change for dollar bills like commercial machines. Anatres combo vending machines have this facility. Bulk machines can be easily stolen because of their light weight as compared to full size commercial vending machines which have a massive weight of 500 to 800 pounds.

Looking at the benefits of having a commercial vending machine, it would be wise for you to go for Anatres vending machine to start off your vending business. You are bound to reap a large profit with your business.
