About Vending
There are over 460,000 vending machines dotted around the UK.
Whilst almost anything can be automatically vended, the principal food and drink products you will find in vending machines today are:
- Hot and cold beverages
- Cold drinks in bottles, cans or cartons
- Confectionery and savoury snacks
- Sandwiches and snack foods
- Cooked or chilled dishes (for heating in an external microwave)
- Plated meals
- Ice cream
Wherever people gather in numbers; at work, in hospitals, railway stations, sporting events – space and time tend to be at a premium. When it comes to meals, breaks and refreshments, variety, choice and fast access are of paramount importance. Vending can meet these requirements and this is where the opportunity for vending begins:
Requirements of consumers:
- High quality food and drink (mostly household brands)
- 24/7 availability
- Affordable prices
- Versatility and variety (virtually any product can be supplied)
