soda & candy vending machines...

I'm in the ATL area and want to know the in's and out's. Not much legitimate info on the net. Anyone out there working this hustle?

I used to work for a vending machine company back in college...and one word of advice that I can give you is to keep close attention on the product inventory and the money collection. Employees are likely to steal a few dollars per machine and resell excess inventory to gas stations ans small corner stores.

Thanks, I am considering buy a maching and stocking it myself. I just need to find the right contacts down here. I am considering going to a supply store in the area.

I used to own a vending machine company in the ATL and recently sold it for more than I paid for the machines. Basically, it all boils down to where you put your machines. Of course, you do not want to put the machines in a location where they will be broken into. I had mine at laundromats, daycares, and barber shops. Real profitable, but the only thing that made me sell was the time issue. With five machines, you might make $1,000+ but it is alot of work. People might call you just to fill up one line that's empty on a snack machine that has 40 selections.

That's the real easy good and bad. If you want to talk about it, I will be glad to talk with you. Hit me up at renado_robinson@yahoo.com.
