Vending Machines?
In the modern, fast-paced world, more and more people are turning to vending machines to meet their everyday needs. Originally confined to dispensing nothing more than sodas and candy bars, modern vending machines now dispense hundreds of different kinds of food, from ice cream to sandwiches, and from dried nuts to fruit juice. The profits generated from vending machines, especially considering their substantial mark-up on the items they sell, make them particularly attractive to schools, offices and organizations whose members might want the occasional quick snack. The most traditional type of vending machine remains the soda machine, which dispenses chilled drinks in exchange for exact change. Increasingly, these machines offer 20oz bottles as opposed to traditional 12oz cans, meaning that they are larger than before. However, they still mostly operate in the same fashion. Candy and other non-liquid snacks are often dispensed using a screw-based delivery system, and modern door design and lasers prevent people from stealing from the machine while ensuring that the screw continues to turn until the purchased item is dispensed. More advanced machines are capable of dispensing sandwiches using a rotating method, or dropping a cup and then filling it with hot chocolate. Frozen treats can also be dispensed from some vending machines. But increasingly, there is an emphasis on offering healthier food.

Machines placed outside should be caged or otherwise protected to ensure they are not vandalized or broken by thieves. Keeping the vending machines stocked and regularly emptied is an excellent way to build up “patronage,” getting certain persons to make the vending machine a part of their daily routine. It is also a good idea to increase the stock of an item that is selling well, and decrease a stock that is selling poorly.
