I am in the Dallas area and have ran across ads in the classifieds advertising established routes for sale. I called and talked to them and it all sounds good, but a little fishy to me. The name of the company (atleast what the guy told me) is Discount Vending. I can't seem to find any web info on them. He told me they were some huge company with operations all over the place...blah blah blah... The route I was interested in was 11 soda machines on location, 4400 gross monthly, asking price $15,000. The thing that made me leary of this was he would take 10k and finance me the other 5k, I have always been a payment in full person. But even if they are legit, how do I know that as soon as I buy the route their "big" company doesn't steal the locations back and leave me with homeless machines? I currently have a small route and would like to expand, any info for the dallas area would be greatly appreciated, Thank you.
