Business on coffee machines - how profitable is it? How to start a coffee machine business

Coffee has long been one of the most beloved drinks for many. With a morning cup of a fragrant drink, it is easier to wake up and get involved in the normal rhythm of life, during a break at work, meeting with friends, discussing important issues, we drink coffee. And when you can’t enjoy your favorite taste in a cafe or at home, the already familiar coffee vending machines come to the rescue - on the street, in the office, in the shopping center. And there are a lot of people who want to stop, pause in a busy day and drink their favorite drink, and therefore these products are always in demand. Thus, the coffee machine business can be very profitable, if, of course, everything is correctly calculated and organized.

Vending: advantages and disadvantages

Vending is a business that is based on the sale of a variety of goods using vending machines. And it has its undeniable advantages.

A very small retail space: 1 sq. meters. Some of them, quite large, may require an area of ​​​​1.5-2 square meters. meters, but this is quite a bit. Of course, the machine needs free space nearby: people should be able to freely approach it, 2–3 people should be accommodated near the machine without any problems.

Low rent: This follows naturally from the first point. You can even rent a square meter of space for little money (500–1000 rubles is a very real price). However, the price depends on the location, it can be much more.

No need to hire staff, register employees for work, pay them a salary. Of course, it is necessary to service the machines, but the presence of a person is required no more than once every 2-3 days.

It is coffee machines that are considered the most cost-effective among all others. They require less maintenance (one machine can “charge” up to 300 servings of coffee with the necessary ingredients), and coffee margins are very high. At a cost of 7-15 rubles, a portion of coffee at the exit can cost 25-35. That is why coffee machines, according to experts, make up about 70% of the entire vending business.

If we talk about the disadvantages of this business, the main one is high competition. Finding a good, profitable place for a slot machine is now quite difficult, but possible.

In addition, there are also certain risks, for example, vandals can damage the coffee machine. To avoid this, you should install machines only in protected areas. If you decide to put it on the street, you should choose a place near the security cameras.

Where is the best place to install a coffee machine

It is better to start a new business with a choice of location. There is hardly anything more important. If you manage to find a good place where coffee will be in great demand, in the future it will be only possible to load ingredients on time and get money.

Successful places for placing coffee machines are traditionally considered:

  • railway stations, bus stations and bus stations;
  • airports;
  • polyclinics
  • government agencies and any other organizations where people spend a long time waiting: social services, tax office, city administration departments;
  • banks;
  • educational institutions;
  • cinemas, parks and other places of entertainment;
  • shopping centers, markets and shops;
  • office and business centers.

Of course, most of these places may already have coffee machines. But this is no reason to despair. You can try to find another place, not worse, or not be afraid of competition with existing devices. Here you can experiment: if after installing the machine you do not receive the profit that you expected, it is never too late to change its location: it is hardly worth counting on the situation to change on its own.

When compiling a business plan, one should not lose sight of the fact that the cost of renting a place for a coffee machine can be different. The most expensive places are airports, railway stations, large shopping and business centers, banks. In markets, shops, educational institutions and clinics, prices can be much lower.

In some cases, it may be more profitable to pay not a fixed rental price, but a certain percentage of sales. This is true for those who have just installed the machine and cannot yet know exactly what income they can count on. If the owner of the premises is ready to meet halfway - you can agree on this with him.

Choice of coffee machine

Today, the market for coffee machines is vast and diverse: there are plenty to choose from. You can purchase a modest, reliable and inexpensive model of imported or domestic production. “Advanced” expensive devices are no less popular: more massive, with a bright design and an extended menu, which includes a variety of types of coffee and tea.

If we add to this the abundance of brands and manufacturers, it becomes clear: choosing a coffee machine is not an easy task. But doable.

You can study the reviews on the Internet, but you need to be careful about them: if somewhere they only praise or only scold a certain model or manufacturer, it should be assumed that this is part of an advertising or anti-advertising campaign. You can conduct your own monitoring: walk around the places with coffee machines, personally see how the machines work, ask the regulars (if the machine is in the building of a university or institution, this is possible), whether it breaks often.

What you need to pay attention to when choosing:

  • Do you have a service center of a manufacturer you like in your city?
  • What is the configuration of the machine: do you need an anti-vandal model for the street, or the machine will be installed in an office building where there is security.
  • Warranty: conditions, terms, as well as the cost of post-warranty service.
  • The cost of the machine itself is also an important factor. However, it is not the cost itself that is more important here, but the payback: very often the more expensive option turns out to be more profitable.
  • How long has the model been on the market? New models are attractive in terms of price and features, but it is also important how they are tested.
  • The maximum load of the machine: how many servings of the drink it can dispense without "refilling".

Machine maintenance

You can do the maintenance yourself, or you can hire an employee for this - it depends on the availability of free time and the number of machines themselves: one person can handle the maintenance of 10 coffee machines during the day. Adding ingredients is required every 3 days, so it is not difficult to calculate that one worker can cope with maintaining 30 machines in working order.

The unit must not only be “refueled” on time, but also kept clean so that it looks attractive to buyers and lasts as long as possible.

Troubleshooting and breakdowns, alas, also happen. And this is fraught not only with lost profits, but also with expenses - for repairs. As a rule, repairs are carried out by specialists of the supplier company. That is why it is better to give preference to a new machine: they have a guarantee (usually 3 years), and they break much less often.

What do coffee machines run

To make coffee tasty, and therefore in demand, you need to purchase high quality ingredients, this is obvious. Before entering into contracts with suppliers, it makes sense to personally test. Those who have been working in this area for a long time recommend giving preference not to experimental samples and new products, but to those that are already in work.

For filling coffee machines use:

  • coffee (in beans or ground) in different mixtures;
  • tea (black, green, fruit - there can be many options);
  • hot chocolate, cocoa;
  • filtered water;
  • powdered or granulated milk (can be used as an additive to coffee and cocoa, and hot milk is included in the menu of some models as a separate drink);
  • dry or granulated cream;
  • disposable cups and stirrers.

Fillers for machines differ significantly from those ingredients from which ordinary coffee is prepared. They are specially designed for automatic cooking: they can be stored for a long time without sticking or caking; do not accumulate odors; do not absorb moisture; dissolve quickly. To achieve this, coffee is roasted in a certain way.

It is better to purchase ingredients from trusted manufacturers, follow the recommended dosages when preparing - then the coffee in your machines will be really tasty.

Company registration

To start a business on coffee machines, enough. When choosing a taxation system for this activity, it is worth giving preference to or.

You do not need a license, permissions from any authorities are also not needed. You just have to take care of quality certificates for fillers: they will need to be taken from the supplier.

Another document that you will need to prepare is a lease agreement with the owner of the premises in which you will install the machine.

Expenses and income

The first question that a future entrepreneur asks is how much a coffee machine costs. The variety of offers on the market suggests that the price range is quite large: from 80 to 350 thousand rubles, however, a used machine can be bought for 50-60 thousand, but, as already mentioned, in this case, unforeseen repair costs are possible in the future.

On average, a high-quality device with a large selection of drinks that will work properly without creating problems for its owner costs about 140-160 thousand.

Such a machine pays off in about six months. This means that in 6 months it can bring a profit of about 150 thousand. However, this figure can be much higher or lower.

Calculate costs and profits

  • the cost of a serving of coffee is 7–15 rubles;
  • the cost of a portion for the buyer is 25–35 rubles;
  • income from the sale of one portion on average 15–20 rubles;
  • the number of servings per day is 50-100.

Thus, income can range from 750 to 2,000 rubles. Per month - from 22 to 60 thousand rubles.

Now let's move on to expenses:

  • rent can cost from one to 15 thousand rubles;
  • payment for electricity - 2.5-6 thousand;
  • service - from 1000 rubles per month.

As you can see, the profit from the enterprise can be 20-50 thousand rubles a month. Moreover, the upper bar is achieved under the condition of a successful location of the machine and a not too high rental cost. Getting 20 thousand monthly is not at all necessary: ​​under adverse circumstances, the profit can be zero.

Another important question is how many coffee machines you need to buy. Here the main factors are your financial capabilities and the availability of good places to install the devices. Experts recommend starting with one or two, so that at first you can figure out how it works, evaluate the ratio of income and expenses, and then, if necessary, expand the business.

Even 10-15 years ago, the vending business in Russia was just emerging, and not every entrepreneur wanted to start it. The market was still poorly understood and little understood by many operators. In this regard, we are far behind the United States, Japan and developed European countries. Today, the picture is drastically changing. The activity of operators is visible against the background of an increase in the number of vending machines, and the consumer is becoming more and more picky - the amount of products consumed through vending machines is gradually increasing.

Vending is one of the types of business

According to Valeo Firma General Director Valery Rakitsky, in Japan, where vending is most developed, there is one vending machine per 23 inhabitants, in the USA - per 35, in Western Europe - per 110 people. In Russia, there are about 2,200-2,400 people per vending machine, which indicates a huge potential for the development of the industry.

Why coffee machines? The answer is simple - coffee machines are considered the most cost-effective in the vending industry. This is achieved due to the low price of the ingredients and the high selling price of the finished coffee. Moreover, coffee machines are quite easy to install - you can “attach” such a device anywhere, from the subway entrance to the bus stop, office or government agency.

Consider the main issues that arise when organizing a business on coffee machines.

Choosing the location of the machine

Before you buy a machine, it is important to determine its location. The place of installation of the machine is the most important thing, because the income of the entire business depends on it. The more sales the coffee machine makes, the more profit we will get.

Of course, the conclusion suggests itself that the greater the throughput of the outlet, the higher the income of the coffee pot. This is partly true, but not always. In addition to patency, indicators such as:

Rent amount

A retail outlet can be highly passable, but at the same time have a “non-lifting” rental rate. Often, the landlord guesses about the estimated income of your coffee pot and will try to set the maximum price per 1 m2. For example, in megacities - Moscow, St. Petersburg, it is almost impossible to find a point with low rent (up to 2000 rubles / m2.). In the regions, the rental rate is lower, but the price of the final product is somewhat lower.

The most unpleasant thing is that during a period of decline in demand, you still have to pay high rent.

There is an option to reduce the risks of high rent - by installing a vending machine in a new place, you can offer the owner a fee not for 1m2, but a percentage of the vending machine's revenue. Often, this option can be beneficial to both parties.

Buyer Audience

When choosing a place to install the machine, you should determine: Who will be the main buyer of coffee? How often does he drink coffee? What is his ability to pay? The answer to these questions will help you understand the expected demand and turnover of the coffee machine.

Presence of competitors

If there are other coffee machines or catering outlets in the immediate vicinity, then you should consider looking for another location. Or you may have to offer a better product, and possibly at a lower price.

Safety

We live in Russia, not in Europe - when installing a coffee pot for 200-300 thousand rubles somewhere at a street stop, you must assess all the risks from the invasions of "vandals". And they certainly will. Important is the presence of protection, the type of body of the coffee pot (vandal resistance), the ratio of profit to risks (the coffee pot must earn a lot to cover the costs of possible equipment repairs).

The most common installation points for coffee machines are: bus and railway stations, universities, office and shopping centers, bus stops, entertainment centers, banks, airports, government agencies. A gas station, according to some operators, is not the best option for installing a coffee pot.

Activity registration

Once you have decided on the intended location of the coffee machine, you can start registering a business. In this case, the organizational form can be either an ordinary individual entrepreneur or entity(OOO).

What OKVED code to indicate when registering vending machines OKVED code - 52.63 "Other retail trade outside stores." No activity licenses are required. As tax systems a single tax on imputed income (UTII) is applied. The size of the tax directly depends on the size of the trading area. In our case, this is only 1-2 m2 per vending machine.

What equipment to choose

There are no exact recommendations for choosing equipment. There are a large number of different manufacturers on the market, from well-known “oldest” European brands to newly arrived Russian companies. The main thing that a novice businessman should pay attention to is the price, technical characteristics of the device and real reviews of operators (on forums and Internet portals). It will not be superfluous to personally drive through the vending machines installed in your city, check them in operation, and conduct a coffee tasting. Thus, it is possible to understand which devices are given the greatest preference.

The choice of a specific manufacturer of a coffee machine must meet the following criteria:

1. Which machine do you need (depending on the installation location): anti-vandal, outdoor or office mode.

2. The capacity of the machine (number of cups, assortment of coffee) - depends on the throughput of the outlet. As a rule, the more capacious the machine, the more expensive it is. However, it makes no sense to overpay money for the capacity of cups if your machine will be in a low-passable place (office, state institution), where the bulk of customers are regular consumers. Another thing is universities, shopping centers, bus stations, etc., where just the capacity and assortment of a coffee pot are very important.

3. Region and city of the equipment supplier - the closer, the better.

4. Technical characteristics of the device. Sometimes it is better to pay 20-30 thousand rubles, but get a more reliable and functional device.

5. Supplier's guarantees and after-sales service. Also an equally important question. Coffee pots tend to break. It is doubly offensive if this happens with a new device. Therefore, the longer the warranty period offered by the supplier, the better for you.

6. Feedback from existing operators (as noted above). Do not strongly believe all kinds of magazines and reviewers. Articles in such publications may be purely promotional in nature. The best opinion is the opinion of the real owner of the slot machine network. And those can be found either on the forums / social networks. networks, or in person.

7. Price (everything is clear here).

8. How many years the company has been operating on the market - the longer the better. The age of the company should tell us about its experience, well-established technology and the trust of customers.

The coffee machine Coffeemar-G546 has good reviews from operators (on thematic forums). The device is the older brother of the equally successful G250 model. It has a large supply of water and cups (500 pieces), an increased assortment of coffee (by 5 buttons), automatic grinding adjustment and electronic control of coffee extraction. It also has increased vandal resistance due to the durable case made of 1.5 mm steel.

Such a device is perfect for installation in any place: in offices, state. institutions, shopping centers, universities, etc. The average cost of a new machine is 150 thousand rubles.

Ingredients and Suppliers

You will select the ingredients by trial and error. All novice vendors go through this. Much depends on the specific point. This is especially noticeable in office buildings - where the coffee pot has regular customers. The quality of the drink in this case becomes crucial. It is necessary to select such ingredients that the end consumer likes. Otherwise, you may face a lack of sales and a general loss of the outlet.

Choosing an ingredient supplier doesn't seem like a cakewalk either. The first step is to request sample samples of the ingredients, to try out their taste and quality. At the beginning of the operation of the machine, at least 3 suppliers should be compared. Alternately, you should fill in the ingredients of the first manufacturer, then the second and third - and take an interest in the opinion of the consumer. Which option is bought more often, with such a supplier, perhaps, one should work.

Maintenance of the machine depends on the traffic of a particular point and the volume of sales - on average, once every 2-3 days. If the point is super passable, a daily visit to the coffee pot is also possible. In any case, frequent visits to the apparatus cannot be superfluous. Proper maintenance involves: collection of the device, replenishment of the bunker with ingredients, checking the performance of payment systems, sanitary cleaning of the TA (inside and outside).

Business on coffee machines belongs to vending and is the most profitable in this area. It provides for earnings on the sale of coffee and tea. To open a business, it is enough to purchase a special machine, the ingredients for it and find a place to install the machine. According to experts, the profitability of a business with the right organization reaches 140-150%.

Registration and documents

To open a business, it is enough to open an IP. No additional permissions are required to install vending machines.

You may also need:

  • Space lease agreement.
  • Quality certificates from manufacturers of coffee and consumables.
  • Permission from the SES if you install the machine in a hospital or educational institution.

Equipment selection

Income will be brought to you exclusively by the coffee machine. In many ways, your profit depends on how correctly it is chosen. If it breaks often or is designed for a small number of servings, then you will lose your money, as well as customers.

To begin with, it is advisable to purchase one new good coffee machine, a little later, when you teach how to maintain it yourself and fix minor breakdowns, you can purchase several more supported ones.

Before buying the device, it is advisable to read the instructions for its maintenance, clarify all the points you are interested in with the seller.

When buying a car, pay attention to the following points:

  1. Is there a service center nearby that serves machines of this manufacturer.
  2. Whether the equipment is suitable for installation on the street or only for a protected area.
  3. Terms and conditions of the guarantee. It is desirable that the warranty period be at least 3 years. Also specify the cost of servicing the device after the expiration of the warranty period.
  4. The maximum load of the machine - how many servings it is designed for. It is desirable that from refueling to refueling, the machine can dispense from 300 servings. In this case, it will be enough for you to check it every two to three days.

Location selection

It is worth starting a business with choosing a suitable place to install the device. It should be not just a building in which there are more people, but a place where people have to spend a lot of time. In addition, it is desirable that there are no canteens and buffets, other coffee machines nearby.

As practice shows, the most successful options are:

  • shopping and entertainment centers;
  • universities, colleges, schools, where there are always a lot of students and pupils;
  • beauty salons, gyms;
  • clinics and hospitals;
  • car dealerships;
  • airports and railway stations;
  • libraries and information centers;
  • markets and stops, metro;
  • houses of culture, where they conduct circles and classes for children.

Please note that the profit depends on the choice of location. If the machine does not make a profit for several months, it must be moved to another point.

To install the device, an area of ​​​​1 square meter is sufficient. In some cases, a little more space may be required - up to 2 square meters, depending on the size of the machine. Also, there should be some free space near the machine so that several people can stand near it.

Please note that it is advisable to install a waste basket near the machine. Otherwise, a person may refuse to buy just because he will have nowhere to throw away the used glass.

Ingredients for a coffee machine

The selection of ingredients must be approached carefully, since the number of buyers will depend on the quality of the product. This is due to the fact that most of the buyers are regular visitors to the building where the coffee machine is located.

Please note that the products must match your brand of device, otherwise the taste of the resulting drink may differ significantly.

To begin with, it is advisable to use the indicated recommendations for preparing coffee, indicated in the instructions for the machine. In the future, you can improve the recipes a little.

For the operation of the machine, you must purchase:

  • coffee - both instant and natural;
  • tea - one or two varieties are enough;
  • sugar;
  • cream - dry or granulated;
  • drinking water;
  • powdered milk;
  • cocoa or chocolate;
  • drinkware - cups and stirrers.

Please note that water is poured into the tank in the machine.

When choosing a supplier, it is necessary to purchase a batch of the product and try the drinks made from it. It is not recommended to take samplers, as the taste of coffee made from a sampler may differ significantly from that made from purchased ingredients.

Estimated expenses and income

Consider a sample business plan for installing one coffee machine.

Expenses:

  1. Buying a machine. The cost of the car depends on the manufacturer and ranges from 130,000 to 330,000 rubles.
  2. Room rental - 500-1,000 rubles per month.
  3. Payment for electricity per month - 3,000-5,000 rubles.
  4. Ingredients for a month - 16,000 rubles.
  5. Glasses - 700 rubles.
  6. Maintenance - 2,000 rubles.

Total cost per car: 354,700 rubles.

Income:

  1. On average, the cost of one drink is 3 rubles.
  2. The markup on drinks in this business segment starts at 250%.
  3. The average price of a check is 11 rubles.
  4. On average, with high traffic per day, from 70 cups of a drink can be bought.
  5. Thus, the income per day will be 770 rubles. Per month - 23,100 rubles.

The average payback of the machine is from 1 year to 1.5 years.

secrets

How to achieve more income when doing business?

  1. Within a month or two, you should evaluate the profitability of the business and purchase a few more machines for installation at other points. It is desirable to install from 5 machines.
  2. Install coffee machines in different places. For example, if one is installed at a university, then it is better to install the second one in a clinic or entertainment center. Please note that in the summer, the demand for coffee is much lower, and in educational institutions it tends to zero at all, since the main buyers - students, are at home.
  3. Watch the appearance of the machine. Clean it periodically. Few people approach a dirty, stained car.
  4. If you have the funds, install a snack machine nearby. This way you will not only increase the demand for coffee, but you will also be able to earn additional funds from the new machine.

Advantages and disadvantages

Pros:

  • Small sales area for the installation of the device.
  • Low rental cost.
  • Machines of this type are less likely to break.

Minuses:

  • Looters and vandalism.
  • High risk of incorrectly chosen location.
  • High competition.

Video: Business review of coffee machines

How much can you earn with a coffee machine? How to build a business in this segment? What to pay attention to? You can get answers to these and many other questions from a short video:

Business on coffee machines is considered one of the most profitable. With the right approach to starting a business, its profitability can be up to 140-150%, and the machine will start generating income within 4-6 months after installation.

The business of deploying outlets equipped with vending machines is called vending. Using this type of equipment, you can sell food and various beverages. The most popular and profitable product in this area is coffee.

Coffee machines are offered by different manufacturers, so it will not be difficult to purchase such equipment. One car costs 80-300 thousand rubles. No need to buy an overly expensive and complex apparatus. Buy an average workhorse for 120-150 thousand rubles and organize a point of sale for coffee and coffee drinks.

Where to install a coffee machine?

The most important thing is to choose the right location for the coffee machine. It is advisable to place coffee machines in crowded places.

It can be:

  • Large shopping malls;
  • Business centers;
  • Universities.

Also suitable are those places where queues usually gather:

  • Laboratories;
  • Polyclinics;
  • railway stations;
  • Bus stations.

Of course, in such places there is a lot of competition and rent of space is much higher, but with a good combination of circumstances, the machine installed here will bring good income.

Choosing equipment

Purchasing the necessary equipment is easy. The most important thing is to have money for it. You should find trusted reliable suppliers who offer certified equipment. If you want to make a business on coffee machines, it is better to purchase high-quality equipment right away than to constantly spend money on repairs. Used models that are in excellent condition are great to start with.

If you do not have initial capital on hand, you can buy a coffee machine for business on lease or rent it. You will have to pay 1.5-2 thousand rubles for renting one coffee machine. This is a small amount, but you should not deceive yourself too much, since renting has its drawbacks. Under the terms of the contract, the tenant can only purchase ingredients from a specific supplier, which, as a rule, offers too high prices.

Scheme of the coffee machine

Business registration

In order for your coffee business to be legal, you need to register an individual entrepreneur with the tax office. In order not to pay a lot, choose a simplified taxation system or a single tax. No license is required for this type of business. It is enough to have quality certificates for the ingredients on hand, which can be taken from the supplier.

In addition, you need to complete the following documents:

  • Coordination with the fire inspection and SES;
  • Agreement on the lease of a place for the apparatus;
  • Permission of local authorities;
  • Book of income and expenses.

Staff

Maintenance of coffee machines can be done on your own, but it is advisable to hire a specialist who understands this technique and its programming. He must check the machines, clean them, repair and refuel, and also withdraw the proceeds. The technician needs to be provided with a car in which he can transport ingredients and proceeds, represented mainly by small coins.

Bookkeeping can be entrusted to a third party company. If you plan to install a chain of vending machines, you need to hire a storekeeper for the warehouse.

Consumables

In order to set up the operation of the coffee machine, you must have:

  1. Coffee and tea of ​​different varieties;
  2. Dry granulated cream;
  3. Sugar;
  4. Water;
  5. Disposable paper cups and stirrers.

There is no need to bring water to the device, since it is poured inside, so you will not need any pipes or hoses.

Remember that your income largely depends on the good choice of ingredients. Customers will drink coffee from the machine that prepares their favorite delicious drinks. When choosing a reliable supplier, take a small batch for testing. It is desirable that he prepares you coffee from the raw materials that he offers for sale.

The coffee machine can only be filled with ingredients that are specifically designed for vending. Normal for these purposes is not suitable. The dosage is usually recommended by the manufacturer. A recipe that does not suit you can be slightly modified. If you develop a competent business plan for coffee machines, then the activity will bring excellent profits.

Maintenance

As mentioned above, a novice entrepreneur can serve a small network of vending machines on their own. It won't take too long. Talk to the supplier of coffee machines and ask him to let you know all the intricacies of working with this device. This may be useful to you in the future. Any coffee machine whose price matches the quality has its own nuances in operation, which you need to familiarize yourself with in advance.

The frequency of visits to the equipment mainly depends on sales volumes.

At first, the device can be serviced daily:

  • Check its correctness;
  • Add ingredients;
  • Wipe off dirt and dust.

When trade is established, each point should be visited once every three days. In one day, you can service 10 machines and withdraw revenue from them.
