What is a Vending Machine?

Vending Machine is a retail store except:

It does not require you or your staff to run it!

It never closes!

It doesn't have to be established at one fixed permanent place!

It doesn’t require large capital outlay associated with establishing many other retail businesses!

Vending business can be as big or as small as the owner wishes it to be!

It doesn’t require you to leave your job in order to get yourself into the business!

WhyVending?

Vending machines are becoming the fastest-growing

method of merchandising. Retailers can benefit from

enhanced security this method of retailing provides.

Furthermore, it also requires lower inventory needs

as well as no employee involvement.

The opportunity

Vending industry is worth over $100billion per year worldwide and growing fast!

With 5.4 million vending machines in Japan, there is one for every 23 people

In the United States that ratio is roughly double.

Comparatively Australia has a lot lesser per capita machines

It means there are opportunities...heaps of them!

Recipe for success in Vending…

Successful Vending Business primarily requires:

Right Vending Machines

Right Locations/Sites

Right merchandise stock

Right attitude towards the business

The knowhow to get all above ‘right’!

And hard work!

Page 9: start vending business | vending business for sale | buy vending machine | vending machines for sale

Right Machine…

Right machine means:

Type of machine that is suitable for a given location/site

Majority of businesses in Australia are either small or medium sized (up to 100employees), which means that your ideal machine should be a ‘compact combinationmachine’ unless you have secured large locations (over 100 employees), in which caselarger machines would be required.

A Compact combination machine is one which is smaller in size and can vend chips,chocolates and drinks all in one instead of having separate machines for drink andsnacks.

Machine should be of high quality, reliable and technologically advanced

Investment in your machine should justify sales generated in an average office,warehouse or a factory. In other words an expensive high end machine may not beright for your business especially in Australia.

Page 10: start vending business | vending business for sale | buy vending machine | vending machines for sale

Right Location/Site…

Right Location/Site means:

A location that is safe and secure. End of the day a vending machine is yourproperty

A location that has a good number of staff preferably above 20 and with goodvisitor traffic

There is no set formula to know in advance how good or bad a location/sitecould be. Generally speaking blue collar males tend to use vending machinesmore than their counterparts. Again that is not necessarily right in all cases.

Best way to find out is try out a location/site and give your best, however movethe machine away to another location/site if ‘sales’ figures fall a lot below youraverage target in spite of your genuine efforts to improve sales for a period of6-8 weeks.

Page 11: start vending business | vending business for sale | buy vending machine | vending machines for sale

Right Merchandise Stock…

Right Merchandise Stock means:

Quite simply stock that sells! Basic retail principle.

Try and put nationally advertised ‘famous’ products (Coke, Solo,Sunkist, Lemonade, Smiths chips, Mars, Snickers, Picnic bars..etc)

Avoid products that are not known

Study your customers and their needs. Give them more of whatthey use (not necessarily what they ask for!)

Be dynamic, creative and enthusiastic about your customers andtheir consumption patterns.

Page 12: start vending business | vending business for sale | buy vending machine | vending machines for sale

Right Attitude…

Right Attitude means:

Vending business is a ‘business’. You have the full authority,accountability and responsibility of your business.

All the rules of running any successful business applies

Yes it can be run as a part-time but not as a part-effort.

Be fully committed to your business.

You need to have goals, plans and perseverance

You are the Boss, and ‘vending machines’ are your employees, whowork hard, earn money for you and yet never ask for holidays!

Hard work…

Basics…

Getting a brand new compact combo vending machineinstalled at an average site should roughly cost you not morethan $5000

Average sales from a location/site should not be less than$60 per week

Average cost of goods should not be more than 50% of sellprice

Operating expenses should not be more than 8% of totalannual sales

© Vending Business Guide. Vendzone Pty Ltd. All rights reserved

Page 16: start vending business | vending business for sale | buy vending machine | vending machines for sale

Worst case scenario…

If these basic rules are followed strictly then the worst case scenario would be:

Cost of machine: $5000

Annual sales: $60 X 52 weeks = $3120

Maximum of 50% Cost of goods sold = $1560

Operating expense (8% of sales) = $250

Return on investment: $1310 or 26% (not bad for worst case scenario, is it?)

How much interest would your bank give, if you left your $5000 with them for a year?

Investment of time…

10 of compact combo vending machines should take

around 4-6 hours per week to service or refill.

(assuming they are all in one or neighbouring areas)

Add another 2-4 hours per week for house keeping,

stock purchase, stock count, bank deposit etc.

Purchase of Merchandise stock…

Merchandise stock can be purchased from:

Wholesalers (Campbell's Cash & Carry, Accredited Distributors etc)

Manufacturer (Coca-cola Amatil, Cadbury Schweppes, etc)

Supermarkets

Key is to stay aware of the ‘specials’ and try to buy

when your required items are on special.

Page 20: start vending business | vending business for sale | buy vending machine | vending machines for sale

Smarter buying is the key…

Normal purchase scenario

Normal cost of a can of drink is say $0.65

Your selling price is say $1.30

Gross Profit margin = $0.65 or 100% mark up on cost

Smarter buying scenario

Specials cost of can of drink say $0.55

Your selling price is still $1.30

New Gross profit margin = 0.75 or 136% mark up on cost

That's a straight increase of 36% into your bottom-line profit! Imagine buying same can now for $0.40!!

Keep your eyes and ears open for ‘specials’ all the time! Very very important !!!
