$2,950,000 + SAV Ref: 1024360

Established for Nearly Two Decades, with ten years by the Current Owner. This Would Be One of the Nation’s Most Diversified and Secure Income, Solid Foundation and Staff Managed Direct Importer, National Wholesaler/Distributor and Direct Supplier of Exclusively Contract Manufactured, ‘Own Brand’ Vending Machines (Large Range). This is One of Australia’s Most Well-Known and Respected Ranges Available Within Our National Market. These Able to be Customised to any Corporate or Business Client Need, Want or Desire! Providing High Volume Sales, Organic Growth and the All-Important, High Net Income Yield! This Semi-Retired Owner Relies Upon the Experienced Manager and Large Team In-House to Ensure that the Day-to-Day Operation is Executed Effectively…

  • Established for nearly two decades, this is one of the Australia’s most trusted and relied upon brands for all things vending. As it includes the importation of a large volume of vending machines, which carry this brands own exclusive design and badge.
  • This badge recognised for the quality that it provides many of the nation’s largest and most well-known corporate name brands, who engineer their businesses and national based sites (includes many multi-site clients) to have vending machines to provide an additional passive income for the parent company or chain store owner etc.
  • There is a large core range of machines on offer, being suitable to nearly any application a client can name. The main differentiator of this company is the fact that its supply chain is highly supportive of its machines being customised to what clients require within the national market – on mass!
  • Clients, being mainly contracted on-going to this strong and market leading operator, actively targets and supports mostly large chains, corporately owned operations and national branded companies and their related business to business clientele.
  • Machines include those that vend ready to eat meals, butcher/meat products, car wash products, snacks, drinks, health supplements, safety products, frozen products, dental products, towel hire etc. and much more. Even butchers are using vending machines, health food providers, gyms, car washes, meal manufacturers to gain that market ‘edge’ and to generate consumer income around the clock. This seems to be a growing trend within Australia, with the advent of ‘tap and go’ and credit card payments taking hold, over cash, vended products and the use and requirement for the machines, of all kinds, have been effectively utilised within many countries around the world.
  • There being many more applications for these types of machines, as they are directly imported by this endeavour, and proudly exceeding the Australian Standards.
  • The suppliers are trusted and have proven to be reliable over the long term, again, this business owns its own machine designs – exclusively (also includes back up suppliers and many vending machine options – being cost effectively contract manufactured on this business’s behalf).
  • This business’s own contract manufactured and branded machines are renowned the nation over, sought out continually and purchased by quality corporate clients mainly (this business is not focused solely on supplying vending machine businesses and their operators).
  • The clients are groups of stores/outlets or businesses and are even contractually required to refresh their vending machines on site, every 5 years. Usually being customised and even wrapped with their corporate brand by this business.
  • These machines simply offer the growing market of national, business to business clients, mainly, with the options that suit them, incorporating all the latest and greatest modern technology. Including advanced products soon to be seen released throughout the country.
  • Within our time poor and convenience driven society, vended products in Australia are following in the footsteps of the UK and even Asian countries, who know and have adopted decades ago, the convenience, simple, around the clock delivery of a broad range of products, via conveniently accessed vending machines.
  • Australian business owners and specific industries are starting to see the ‘passive income advantages’, such as butchers who are creating a wall next to their shops, whereby a vending machine can store, display and provide local clients with fresh meat options, any time of the night or day. These types of ‘vending walls’ are also being introduced into shopping centres, to increase a business’s sales, so that clients can readily tap their credit cards, get their product, and go.
  • Having such proven core products, and a strong alliance with the supply chain offshore, provides the ultimate customisation option for any client. This type of well engrained and internally contracted, preferred supplier product business has been hard for other players to compete against within the national market!
  • It even boasts multiple income streams, one being pre-paid in advance by clients and passive by nature, and this is a large percentage of its annual income generated (very little cost and time/labour required to secure these on-going monthly payments).
  • The clients of this business are no ordinary clients, being many of the most renowned within their space, and the highest order within our society…namely, top brand wholesalers/distributors of food and beverages, including large corporate groups and multi-chain operations/store networks.
  • Well respected and renowned corporate and business clients rely heavily upon this mainly contracted provider of imported and unique and own branded vending machines (all manner of).
  • This staff managed investment is this large clientele’s ‘go to’ sole or preferred supplier.
  • Another untaped income stream is available from digital advertising, yet another way to see this business’s organically growing bottom line swell even further. Why not simply add more income and let it land on the bottom line, requiring very little cost and effort to do so?
  • But, alas, time moves forward for everyone, and this owner is now ready for full, instead of semi-retirement (status quo for years, as there is a highly experienced and long-term manager and large staff on team).
  • Given that so few hours and optional based owner activities can easily be passed onto the new owner or existing industry business (i.e. viewing reporting, supervising the large shipments of product and accessing the bank account/financial management duties etc.),
  • A new company within this industry, could add many more millions to their top line and bask in the high financial return and gross profit margins being offered by this direct and commercially and contractually secured importer.
  • This business has simply become one of the Australia’s most effective and profitable importers of custom made and exclusively branded (own and trusted brand) vending machines.
  • Remember that this business does not and has never targeted nor supplied many vending business operators or owners.  Recently this side of the business has grown organically as these vending businesses have recognised the quality and service offered from this business.
  • This business has chosen to become the contracted and internally registered, preferred supplier for many of the most well-known and recognised corporate brands operating in Australia. Have many income streams, as it generates a high percentage of passive income, banked regularly per month.
  • This business’s sales have continued to climb organically, whilst its advertising budget of this retiring owner was reduced by 17.08% (approx.) in 23/24, yet sales still grew naturally by 7.68% approx. ’24.
  • The largest contributing corporate client only represents 5.78% (approx.) of annual revenue, with the income spread across thousands of clients and sites the nation over – also being a financial security that makes you sleep well at night!
  • There will always be a growing need for businesses to find creative and technologically supportive way to promote their businesses and brands. These mainly large corporate and business clients seek out this player, so that they can make the greatest use of the latest technology, which can then generate them an additional passive income within their own businesses. It can also attract them more clientele and make it easier for their end users / consumers to make product purchases.
  • These machines help well-known brands and large chains to become differentiated and to simply make more money within their multi-site enterprises.
  • All in all, the demand for vending machines continues to be on the rise, as vended products allow the client to achieve immediate gratification, no matter what product the machine offers them.
  • With many client contracts signed and being perpetually renewed (the clients need this business), the sheer quality of this business’s clientele alone makes for a wonderfully strong and robust business. There is a massive barrier to entry, and great difficulty for anyone wanting to compete with this ‘juggernaut’ of an importer.
  • When combined with its sheer size, immediate potential for further sales and profit growth, existing market share held for decades and such a diversity of machines and clientele, client reliance is a great thing for this operation, able to deliver and support nationally, with ease. Thus, setting it apart and providing the ultimate in commercial protections, unseen in most other businesses operating today.
  • There is certainly more than meets the eye here, ready for a new owner/investor or existing industry business to increase this bottom line and watch the client’s smile when they are delivered what they want, making all the difference in their own businesses!

All being due to retirement from the business and industry, being for just $2.95 million + SAV ($600-700K – fast moving stock approx.) Open to all genuine offers
