Package size decides whether a product fits the machine and suits customers.
Single-serve packs dominate vending because they fit spirals and columns. Larger bottles and packs suit workplaces, sports venues, and places where people stay a long time. The limit is the machine's design – shelf height and spiral pitch.
Single-serve packs
They fit standard spirals and quick purchases best.
Larger packs
Big bottles of water and drinks need taller shelves or columns. Check whether the machine has suitable spots.
Matching the location
- Office: single servings.
- Workplace: larger bottles and filling snacks.
- Sports venue: water in larger bottles.
The page on snack vending machines (publisher's site) has examples.
