Established Vending Business with Large Customer Base & Semi-Absentee Ownership

Excellent opportunity to acquire a well-established vending and automated retail business serving a diverse customer base throughout the Lewis-Clark Valley and surrounding areas.

Founded in 2001, this business has built a strong reputation for personalized service, reliable equipment, and customized product offerings. The company provides pre-packaged snacks, beverages, frozen foods, and other convenient food options through vending machines located at businesses and facilities throughout the market. Customers include medical facilities, manufacturers, schools, hotels, apartments, and other commercial locations.

The business currently services approximately 152 customer locations with roughly 290 machines in the field, providing an incoming owner with an established route base and significant equipment infrastructure. The operation generated approximately $849,000 in 2025 revenue and is currently operated on a semi-absentee basis.

A trained employee base handles much of the day-to-day route and operational activity, while the current owner focuses primarily on management, ordering oversight, bookkeeping, customer communication, equipment maintenance, and installations. The owner currently reports working approximately 8–20 hours per week, creating an attractive opportunity for either an owner-operator or an investor looking for a business with an established operating structure.

There are multiple opportunities for continued growth, including adding new commercial accounts, expanding services within existing customer locations, increasing coffee and other unattended retail offerings, and implementing a more active digital marketing strategy. The company has historically grown primarily through its reputation, referrals, direct sales efforts, and industry relationships rather than a significant online marketing presence.

The business is offered at $475,000 and includes a substantial base of furniture, fixtures, equipment, and vending-related assets. Inventory is approximately $55,000 and included in the asking price.
