Vending deployments by scenario
Footfall, dwell time, product mix and payment behavior differ by location. These reference deployments show how machine type, capacity and cooling are matched to each scenario.

Six common deployment scenarios
Each scenario has a different product mix, service frequency and payment habit. Open a scenario for the reference configuration and recommended models.

Transit hubs & airports
Rail stations, metro interchanges, bus terminals and airports combine high footfall with short dwell time. The machine must be visible from the walking path, accept local cashless payment and hold enough stock to survive a full service interval.

Offices & factories
Offices and factories have a captive audience with predictable break patterns. Coffee, hot drinks and packaged food often outperform impulse snacks, and the machine is expected to fit a staff area rather than a public corridor.

Hospitals & clinics
Hospitals and clinics run around the clock and need supplies outside pharmacy hours. Vending here is less about impulse purchase and more about controlled access, clear labeling, temperature integrity and audit trails.

Schools & campuses
Schools, colleges and training campuses have concentrated break periods and a young, mobile-first audience. Hot food, noodles and cold drinks move quickly; payment is usually QR-based, and the machine must fit a canteen or dormitory corridor.

Malls & retail venues
Shopping malls, cinemas and high streets sell attention as much as products. The machine becomes a small retail media surface: large screens, branded light boxes and a product mix built around impulse and gifting.

Residential & hotels
Apartment buildings, hotels and residential compounds need everyday essentials outside shop hours. The machine should be quiet, compact and simple to use, with a product mix built around water, snacks, toiletries and emergency items.
