Are you just starting out? How much money do you have to spend? Do you need bottle or can machines? What type of locations are they going on? Give us more info so we know what you need.

My answer is that since you are a beginner, dont go starting off by buying routes. One, you will get ripped off 9 times out of 10. Two, you wont get a feel for the business. A large part of understanding how the vending world works is landing a location yourself. Even if its a small pizza shop try to put in a single head vending machine or something. Dont try to go big too fast (like you want) or else there is a good chance of going broke. Start small and work hard. Finding good locations is 90% of the hard work. If you know anyone who runs a business of at least 10 people, that is a start. Now you can take what I said as advice or you can completely ignore it. I promise you, if you listen to what I said, you have the best chance of making it on these "streets". Good luck.

For Soda Machines I like Dixie Narco and Vendo because they have good warranty policies if you take up on them. Plus they are sleak machines that last a very long time.
