Luckily, the snack and soda vending business is fairly recession-proof- if you play your cards right. Predictably, the economy has encouraged vending machine route operators to reduce their costs and do a little more research when it comes to expanding. Likewise, newcomers to the vending community are seeking less expensive options to the more pricey vending business opportunity packages. Further, locations who have no interest in the vending business but just need a snack / soda vending machine for their staff are more price aware than in previous years. Ever considered quality refurbished vending machines?

Whether you’re a vending newbie, a seasoned route operator, or just a business looking to provide refreshment for it’s employees, you can cut costs but not quality with refurbished snack, soda, or combo vending machines.

What does it mean to say that a vending machine is refurbished? It means a lot more than slapping on a new coat of paint. Let’s start with the fact that the refurb vending machines that are available are top brands known by the whole vending industry: Vendo, Dixie Narco, National, USI, Royal, Rowe, etc. So you know it’s a quality machine from the get-go. These machines may be used, but they have practically been given a new life.

Professionally refurbished and / or factory remanufactured vending machines are thoroughly cleaned, tested, and inspected. Cosmetically, anything that needs a face lift, such as vinyl sides, fronts, stickers, and even paint is restored. If needed, parts such as coin mechanisms and bill validators, are replaced with rebuilt ones. So, you get a machine that looks like new and functions properly.

Also, unlike other pre-owned machines on the market, these refurbished machines come with a 90 day parts repair warranty and can be delivered to your location. Bonus: On many models, the factory will pre-set the pricing for you.

The machines start at around $995 (depending on the model and brand), making this a great deal.
