What is a Kooler Ice Vending Machine? |
| |
The Ice Machine is a revolutionary approach that will forever change the way ICE is bagged and sold. The Ice Vending Machine is a free standing, fully automated, ice machine that delivers ice and filtered water to the customer through a self service vending process. The concept is simple, "ice is bought strictly out of convenience." Size of the machine, shape or consistency of the ice or the retail cost of a bag of ice is irrelevant to most of the ice buying public. As an investor in owning and operating an ice vending machine, "it's all about ROI." Ice is Ice. The KI510 and KI810 can also vend 1-gal. or 5-gals. of Highly Filtered water at the same time the machine is vending ice. |
