Another supplier manages to drop prices in the middle of a recession when they couldn't do it during the boom. Who feels fleeced ???

As an operator I feel fleeced which is why I teamed up with Glenn to set up Sweetfix. What feels great is that even if we didn't gain 1 customer we have managed to bring massive benefits to every operator in the country - Long live the £1 vend!

Cheers

i love it the fact that on the snackacan spinning machine on their website they have the clear plastic pots in, not their own, after the fuss they make about them.

Yep agree Noel, after the flyer they sent out to all their customers telling them they had to increase prices then suddenly a 20% drop.

What makes me feel more fleeced and pi55ed off is the fact they can afford to reduce their 'subsidised' site finding. :liar:

They paid their independent home-based site finders £3.50 per site and charged £20 (as confirmed by an ex-Vending Revolution site finder).

They keep talking about a £1/2m investment. In what? Not the machinery, as tubz vending, Swetfix and Hurleys have also got packing machinery and there's no way any of them spent a fraction of that.

Give me their numbers, I'll pay them more than that for goodness sake...

And not charge NV operators a penny. :hmmm:

I don't know them personally, just what I've been told by others.
