Need For Specialization in Vending Business

Running a dedicated beverage vending route could be highly beneficial for its operator. All that is required for this is appointment of one dedicated resource that could be associated full time with the route. This method offers several benefits and few of them have been stated below:

• Less Loading: A latest beverage truck with roll up doors on its side could be loaded by a pallet with forklift truck. This will drastically reduce the loading time when compared to what it takes for loading a mixed product route vehicle. If an operating is offering mixed products then he has to load one product at a time.

• More liabilities: The main concern in a mixed product truck is lack of sufficient space. This may restrict the operator from selling all possible brands. In case a customer is unable to the product of his choice, he would either opt for an alternative brand or just walk away. This would result in lost sale. However, a well designed beverage truck will allow you to stock all the brands and flavours that can satisfy a customer.

• Simple process: In a new beverage route, people only have to learn how to fill one kind of machine. Hence it requires very less time to train a new route personal and thus enable him to run his route efficiently.

• Efficiency: Specialization would increase the efficiency of your business. When an employee learns about one product, he would master in handling the product thereby he would be able to fill the machines much faster. Mixed product route is also beneficial as the route person here would have one product less to worry about thus; he no longer has to trip over beverage cases in route vehicle.

• More spare time left: When the beverage cases and services are removed from the route truck, route people would be left more spare time. This time can be used for servicing perishable product machines which might result in producing more number of productive routes.

In case you are looking to start a dedicated beverage route all by yourself, using a typical step or cube van would probably mean too much of work load. Hence it is advisable for you to go for a truck which can be loaded with a forklift. For more help you can get in touch with Planet Antares staff who can provide best guidance in this respect.
