I am in Arizona and am looking into opening a few Soda/drink vending locations about between 30 and 40 of them.

As a newbie to vending I was looking for some in site as to which machines I should be looking to buy, used of course.

I want to be able to vend a variety of drinks; Coke, Pepsi, Red Bull, Monster.......

Should I be looking at glass front machines or the standard back-lit machines?

What is the ideal number of products to vend out of each machine?

Any advice would be a great help.

Glass fronts are mostly for the experts, however, if you really want a glass front, the Dixie-Narco BevMax 4 would be the only model I would recommend.

Avoid the Vendo Vue at all costs; it has way too many motors that can fail. In fact, I heard that Pepsi Bottling Group of Phoenix, AZ is phasing out the Vendo Vue due to the many problems with them. I never used a Royal Vision (they are somewhat less common around here), however, so I can't say whether or not I can recommend it or not.
