Machines in the pics are snakkys and AP LCM's which have unreliable chillers on them and they are old machines now prob worth about 2-400 each (the ap's)

staff rooms aren't really a problem tbh as you can rotate stock and you are selling chocolate and crisps not sweets which is where the bordom factor comes into play.

But on the other two, rental and low margins yes load of crap!! ;)

Thanks for that.
I did stay well clear, it was a complete non starter.
£25K and you dont actually own anything, what a joke!
Would be working for free for 18 MONTHS + then if you want to sell you have to convince some poor gulible soul to buy some machines of you for £25k, except that you never own them, or the sites for that matter!
One of the WORST opportunities I have ever looked at.
You would be better off investing £25k in a Snack A Can franchise, at least you own something even though the business model is flawed!

I worked for the parent company and I know you did actually own the machines once you bought them and were free to move machines from the independant sites as you wished. Should a site be lost then it was up to you to move the machine. I don't know if that situation has changed since I am no longer there.

Some of the sites like Dunelm Mill, Matalan, Homebase etc had very good takings.
