Most vending locators sell you a list of phone numbers or “potential” spots. You pay upfront, call them, and get rejected. VMFS is different. We operate a Location Marketplace. We have already negotiated with the business owner, verified the foot traffic, and secured the agreement. You aren’t buying a lead; you are entering a partnership.
The VMFS Location Leasing Model
We replace the risk of high-cost marketing with a transparent, scalable leasing structure.
Instead of paying $500–$1,000 upfront for a locator service, you pay a low monthly fee to hold the contract. What it covers: This secures your exclusive right to the floor space and covers the location’s electricity costs. Variable Pricing: Fees are determined by the quality of the location. e.g. A quiet office breakroom costs less; a 24/7 manufacturing plant costs more.
Performance Revenue Share
A percentage of gross sales (typically 5-10%) is paid to the location. Why we do this: It ensures the business owner wants your machine to succeed. When they earn a commission, they protect your machine and encourage employees to use it.
You Own The Profit
After the base fee and revenue share, 100% of the remaining profit is yours. You control the pricing, the product sourcing (Cost of Goods Sold), and the margins.
