Hesitation Towards Investment Among Vendors

The surprising thing about the dynamic vending industry is that automatic merchandising remains at the bottom of a ladder, ready to climb but barely moving. In recent years, the automatic merchandising industry’s revenue increased by 3 percentage points.

Obviously, the vending industry will continue to remain challenging unless the participants become more aggressive about investing in technological tools in the coming time.

Planet Antares Inc offers a variety of tools for improvement of sales and profitability. These tools can help in enhancing the efficiency of performance and include:

• Remote machine monitoring
• Electronic cash audit
• Electronic locks
• Cashless capability

However, very few operators are able or willing to make the essential investment in equipment, salaries and training that will allow them to utilize these advantages. For the remaining Planet Antares vending operators, their fortunes rest on external economic forces, which can be described as non-threatening in the short term.

In the previous years, improvement in sales have comforted vending operators as vending locations had stopped firing employees during that time. Still, the level of utilizing technology in vending operations and business management remain far from satisfactory.

Once used properly, these can enable you to schedule service at the most opportune time, improve customer satisfaction, offer higher priced products and improve level accountability of your Planet Antares vending machine.

In the changing vending environment, you need to integrate new hardware and software with the existing management systems. All the effort will be worth your time and effort as you will experience positive impact on your vending business.
