The Battle For Top Vending Machine Sales

What sells better? Canned drinks or bottled drinks?

Canned drinks are cheaper to invest in, and can be found virtually anywhere. A lot of times you can find really good sales within your local grocery stores or super chain markets. Tin cans are durable and are shaped perfectly for easy loading into a vending machine. The variety is also tremendous. Virtually every type of drink is offered in a can drink format. As a vendor, it’s very economical to stock and offer canned drinks to their customers through drink vending machines.

Bottles drinks are popular because they hold more product. This is especially more attractive to the consumer in the summer months when beverages are consumed in bigger quantities. The variety capabilities are there but it is a bigger investment for the vendor to keep bottled drinks in stock.

You are better off as a vendor to offer both canned drinks and bottled drinks in your vending machine. That way, you are pleasing every single person that stops in front of you vending storefront. When investing in vending machines, make sure your drink machines can handle a combination of both canned and bottled drinks!

What To Do Once I order a Vending Machine from Piranha?

Congratulations! You ordered a quality vending machine from Piranha. Now that you have received tracking information, you can go to the website of the freight forward company and estimate the arrival of your vending machine. There is not much to do to a vending machine to start using it, but you should prepare your space by doing the following recommendations:

You should always be present when the vending machine is being delivered by the trucking company. A document has to be signed once you receive your equipment in good condition. In the event that a damage has occurred during transit, you can choose to note the damage on the shipping document and accept it, or you can refuse the shipment. You should also give us a call immediately and we can help guide you in the steps to ensure another machine will be shipped out to you as quickly as possible.

Once you remove all the packaging material around the vending machine, and place it in the designated spot of your choice, you are ready to plug in the vending machine. It is necessary that you never put your vending machine up against the wall. Your machine will need to be slightly away from the wall to give the refrigeration unit room to circulate it’s air. You do not have to worry about this if you purchase a snack machine or a vending machine that does not have a refrigeration unit inside. Once the compressor starts to cool your machine, it might take up to 48 hours to fully cool your drinks initially. It will continue to monitor the temperature and work just like a refrigerator and keep drinks cool at the factory set temperature (recommended).

Your vending machine should automatically be up and running after it is plugged into a power source. You are ready to take the key and open up your machine. The only thing left to do is fill your machine with products of your choice and set your prices for those items. You may need to look in your manual to find steps on how to set prices but it is always a very simple process. You can also give us a call and we will go through those steps with you.

That’s it! Congratulations again on your new purchase! You own a piece of equipment that works for you and services the people in and around your business.

Vending Machine Uses Facial Recognition

A Japanese Company has manufactured a vending machine that uses facial recignition to recommend a drink for the person standing in front of it. There is already a working model placed at a Tokyo train station and more are projected to be placed in Japan.

There are sensors in the machine that detects a persons gender and age. Going through a computer system, it will make a recommendation for what type of beverage that person is most likely to enjoy. A data that includes suggested products for certain type of person in addition to the temperature of the environment and time of day will ensure a sale and a happy customer!

Product Delivery Success

Have you ever had a bag of chips not fall during your vending machine purchase? With the recent advent of new technology, vending machines can ensure that your product fall or the machine will refund your money back. This is called ultra-vend technology.

Ultra vend technology works by infra red beams of light that criss crosses over the drop product bin. If the product does not drop and pass through the infra red sensor, then the machine will know it has not successfully dropped the product. Within the 10-12 second time frame, the computer will give a credit to the customer and ask to make another selection. There is no fail-proof system that ensures every product drop in a vending machine but this new technology helps ensure that the customer will walk away with their purchase.

This design is crucial for today’s vendors. It helps with keeping the customers and locations happy and complaint-free.
