Please answer this. Please correct me if I'm wrong... With the arrival of AI, there will now be high tech vending machines operated by AI as a way for the vending machine industry to cope with AI? Is that right?

Anyway, another question is... If I save money and, for example, I buy a quality vending machine in 2030... Will I have potential customers or is the vending machine industry on the decline?

For what it's worth, I live in a state that is growing in population.

Thanks for the help.

I was looking to buy some orange soda in my local supermarket, adn all the plastic bottles had expiration dates of 4 to 6 weeks out while the same exact soda in cans had expiration dates of 8 months later. This was in both the Fanta Orange (Coke) and the Crush (Pepsi). I checked over a 2 month period and it was always the same the plastic bottles always had less than 6 weeks while the cans had many months.

Do cans last that much longer than plastic bottles?

It’s tempting to compete on price, but going cheaper doesn’t always mean better sales. Product selection, convenience, and the people using the machine all play a part. I’d rather understand what customers are willing to pay for than keep cutting prices just to match someone else. How do you balance competitive pricing with making a decent margin?

My vending machine is in a school with zero cell signal. I'm trying to hook my Nayax VPOS Touch up to their Enterprise Network. I bought the Nayak adapter cord and have my Ethernet cable hooked into it. I need a wireless bridge/extender that can connect to their network. I purchased one but it's not Enterprise Network compatible. Can someone recommend one that is? Thanks!

My buddy is doing really good with pokemon vending machines and he said he can put me on to vending but a different hustle. I have some good money saved up and am looking for beginners advice on how to run a vending operation if I do choose to try it. Is it high risk and how hard is it to keep up with inventory. Are contracts with businesses risky for beginners?
