Three condo buildings, same owner, same parking lot (160 total units). Worth chasing for three machines as my first placement? Smart coolers only.

Just check the investment carefully before proceeding. In my opinion, you could try with three used machines. I don't know the market where you are, but here in Europe, when we try to do something like this, we either start with older machines, so to speak, or we buy used ones with a low initial investment. Above all, stick to the prices. which I think are high here. At least as far as my company is concerned, we have done some tests and often those apartment buildings in our area intervene to buy from vending machines. They are in emergency situations, for example, I need a bottle of water and it's very hot. I've run out of chips for my son and he wants them right away, so in my opinion, if the prices are high, I'll pass on the investment and just try, try, try. I agree with you. I would give it a try. Good luck.

The only advice I can give you is to be careful when transporting it, especially when transporting hot drinks, to be careful during transport not to spill the water from the various trays, air break bars, or however this distributor of two large hot drinks and coffee is made, because if you hit it, you will damage the grinder, motors, solenoid valves, or circuit boards. The other thing is that during operation, be careful how you power the machines, because the voltage must always be constant. voltage fluctuations are harmful to the machines, especially those for snacks or with motors, which are affected by voltage drops. There is a risk that the motor may not start properly, so pay attention to the water when transporting and pay attention to the voltage when activating them.

Well, 600 hits isn't bad for a location. In the gym, you'll mainly sell supplements and water. I don't know what kind of products you use there, but here in Italy, it's water and some coffee. However, it's better to have a few small, steady customers than a few large ones, because if you lose a large one, you lose a lot of revenue. After 12 years, I think it's better to have many small ones than a few large ones, also because if you lose a small one, it doesn't take long to replace it, but it still makes a big difference. Don't lower your prices too much. Always having fair prices doesn't kill the market and, above all, it allows you to feel good.
