How We Work

It's easier than you think — three steps, start to finish, no proposals to compare and no sales calls to sit through.

Tell Us About Your Location

Property type, size, and which area needs service — a break room, a waiting room, a guest area, whatever fits your business. Takes about two minutes.

We Schedule a Site Visit

Your local team comes to your site, walks you through your options, and schedules delivery of the equipment you choose — no back-and-forth over email.

Machine Is Installed

The same team you met with becomes your ongoing local point of contact — managing everything from restocking to repairs, start to finish.

What Makes Traditional Vending Simple

The same basic format that's worked in breakrooms for decades — no learning curve, no minimum headcount.

Lowest Commitment

No open shelving, no self-checkout kiosk, no minimum headcount — just a machine that fits in a corner.

Cashless Standard

Most current equipment already accepts cash, card, and mobile payment out of the box.

Room to Grow

Pair it with healthy vending or an office coffee program later, or upgrade to smart vending anytime.

Which One Is Right for You?

Both are installed and managed at zero cost — the real question is which one fits your situation right now.

Choose Traditional Vending if…

You don't have vending at this location yet and want the simplest, lowest-commitment way to add it.

VS
Choose Smart Vending if…

You're upgrading an older machine, or you want cashless and remote monitoring as the standard from day one.

Where Traditional Vending Fits Best

Real signs this is the right call for your location:

Any breakroom, regardless of headcount, that doesn't already have vending

Locations that want a simple, low-maintenance option rather than a full micro-market

What Is Off-Site Convenience Costing Your Workplace?

Every trip an employee makes off-site for a snack or a drink is time away from their desk. It's a small, easy-to-overlook cost per trip, but it compounds fast across a full team over a full year — plug in your own numbers below to see roughly what it adds up to for a location like yours.

$76,267 estimated annual cost of not having vending available 3,467 employee-hours a year at $22/hr

Illustrative estimate based on the numbers you enter — not a measurement of your actual workplace or an audit of lost productivity. Actual results will vary.

Frequently Asked Questions

Many prospective customers have a number of different questions for us when considering vending for the first time. A few of those questions are listed below:

How much space does a traditional vending machine need?
A standard snack or beverage machine typically needs about 3 feet of wall space and access to a standard electrical outlet — your local team confirms exact placement during the site visit.
Can I get separate snack and beverage machines instead of one combo unit?
Yes — equipment mix depends on your space and traffic, and it's one of the things your local team will ask about.
Who decides what products go in the machine?
Your local team sets the initial product mix and will typically adjust it based on what sells at your location.
What payment methods do traditional vending machines support?
Cash, and on most current equipment, card and mobile wallet too.
Is there any cost to add a traditional vending machine to my location?
No — equipment, installation, and ongoing management are provided at no cost to qualifying locations.
Who restocks and maintains the machine once it's installed?
Your matched local team handles restocking, repairs, and maintenance directly — you contact them, not Vendepot, if something comes up.
Is there a minimum headcount or amount of foot traffic to qualify?
No — traditional vending works for breakrooms of any size, which is part of why it's usually the starting point.
What happens if the machine runs out of stock or breaks down?
Contact your local team directly — they're your day-to-day point of contact for service issues, not Vendepot.
Can I add other services alongside a traditional vending machine?
Yes — healthy vending or an office coffee program can be added alongside it, either at setup or later.
Can this be upgraded to a smart vending machine later?
Your local team can advise on this during a future site visit — it depends on your space and existing equipment.
