New Product Doing Very Well. Worth a try!

Post by Nick@VendingGlasgow »

Hey guys, just thought I'd let you know about a product I've started selling which is doing pretty well.

I know a woman who makes cakes etc and she asked if I would try out her tablet in my sweet machines.

Now, I have a wide range of sites varying from factory workers (young guys prodominantly) and offices (mostly female)

She gave me 20 bits of tablet to see how they done and I sold all 20 in 2 days. I put on the middle tray for attention.

I then ordered 150 from her and sold all within a week. Bear in mind we only have 5 sweet machines.

I bought them off her at a £1 and sold for £1.50 and was amazed people paid that for it, especially in the factories.

Just thought I'd let you guys know. If anyone is interested you can give me a call on 07821056950 and ill give you her details.

Each time I visit people are asking when the tablet is back! Always worth a try.

Type Scottish Tablet into google and you'll know what I mean.

I didn't realise you guys didn't sell down in England.

Yes I am interested in something different, presume they are packaged and labelled as we English obviously haven't got a clue what they are. Again if sell by dates are reasonable (along the lines of flapjack I would try but can she do anything on the price? £1 is dear in comparison to similar products, chocolate covered flapjack which I buy in around 30/40p

I had also wondered about a premium tablet or fudge

I made contact with a small glasgow company who can even supply their ranges in your branding the only problem being the cost price making the selling price rather high .

By the way the premium product was sensationally good

Vending operators prices should be as good as buying wholesale direct from manufacturers with the quantity we buy I believe. For example when we found a decent flapjack supplier we bought a pallet at a time and so would consider vending companies completely different to retailers

Buying at a £1 selling for £1.50. Where's the profit? A products no good unless you make money from it?
