Sites for toy machines

Post by Vendition Ltd »

Just trying to plot my next move in developing and growing my business and before I splash out on another 10 toy machines and go out cold calling what sites do well with capsule vending machines like the 3L wonder and discapa machines

Apart from the obvious - play centres etc do fish and Chips shops do well? or any other sites I should look to approach when I go out site finding?

Regards

Hadn't thought of cafes !! What about newsagents in busy locations? Are the sites willing to drag the machine in and out each day

Fish and chip shop sounds good rich maybe mini bouleys are best there but the size might put a lot off

Newsagents in a parade under high rise block of flats with a few schools in the ares should do well, but it does need to be busy, plenty of kids about. Got about 100 of these sites.

Hi Ross,
Historically for 90mm capsules Laiv Luxors, new installs I use 3L Linos (I like their slimline profile). for £1/£1, £1/50p,50p 20p, 3L Wonders, I also have a few superettes. I try and standardise on the equipment that I have saves on key, spares etc.
