Upon exploring various options, the club owner decided to partner with us to install mini wall-mounted vending machines in his clubs. These machines were strategically placed in two key areas:
1. Near High-Traffic Washroom: One vending machine was hung on the wall near the washroom, an area with heavy foot traffic. This location was chosen to cater to patrons who often step outside for a smoke or vaping break.

2. Adjacent to Gaming Machines: Another machine was placed near the gaming machines, providing easy access to vapes and e-cigarettes for gamers who preferred to enjoy these products during their gaming sessions.

Features of the Mini Wall-Mounted Vending Machines:
- 21.5-inch User Interface (UI): The machines boasted a spacious 21.5-inch UI, ensuring an engaging and user-friendly shopping experience for clubgoers.
- Card Reader: To facilitate seamless transactions, each vending machine was equipped with a card reader that allowed customers to pay using credit or debit cards.
- Custom Stickers: The machines were adorned with custom stickers that displayed the various vape brands available, adding a touch of branding and personalization to the experience.
- Interior Lighting: The interior lighting of the machines served a dual purpose. Not only did it assist customers in inspecting vape products in the dimly lit gaming room, but it also contributed to the ambiance, enhancing the overall aesthetic of the club.
The implementation of these mini wall-mounted vending machines yielded several positive outcomes for the club owner:
- Revenue Growth: The availability of vapes and e-cigarettes within the club premises attracted more customers and boosted sales. Patrons no longer needed to leave the club to purchase these products.
- Customer Convenience: The user-friendly interface and card payment options made it incredibly convenient for patrons to browse, select, and purchase their preferred vaping products.
- Enhanced Atmosphere: The interior lighting of the vending machines not only served as a functional feature but also added to the overall ambiance of the gaming room, making it more visually appealing.
- Brand Visibility: The custom stickers on the machines provided a platform for vape brands to showcase their products and increase brand visibility among clubgoers.
In conclusion, our mini wall-mounted vending machines have not only helped our South African customer meet the vaping needs of his patrons but have also contributed to the expansion and success of his business. The machines have proven to be a win-win solution, offering convenience to customers and increased revenue for the club.
