Vending-Most Happening Industry
It was some time in the 215 BC that people first used the coin operated vending machines for the purpose of vending holy water in Egyptian temples. Since then this industry has made progress by leaps and bounds without any looking back. Now we have the modern vending machines that vend almost every product you could imagine.
If you observe closely, you will realize that vending is mostly a service industry. Modern lifestyles and change in eating habits are one of the several reasons for increasing popularity of vending machines. Most of us do not have the time to cook and eat so; vending machines are a great alternative to our daily meals. Thus our dependency on these machines is increasing day by day.
This change in trends has lead to increased snacking while travelling. Thus more and more machines are being placed in non traditional locations like bus stations, sports, recreation centers and garage forecourts. Usually majority of vending machines that are in use are floor standing machines thus making it easily accessible by customers.
Vending machines offer convenience and quick service. This is another reason why most people use them. Apart from this, cashless vending is also gaining popularity among customers. Customers generally prefer cashless vending because it is more convenient for them. However, since operators take up business for making instant returns, it is advisable to stick to cash vending.
Most popular locations for placing vending machines are offices, schools, bus and railway stations and busy malls and complexes. With the introduction of vending machines in offices, employees no longer need to wait in long queues for a cup of coffee. By placing these machines in office cafeteria, customers can access them easily and enjoy instant services.
An operator needs to offer those products that have demand through out the year. For instance snacks and beverages are those products which are in constant demand. By offering such products, operators can be assured of guaranteed returns. You can also try offering latest products like iPods, cameras in your machines. In case, the demand of these products fades off, you can shift back to your traditional products.
