Fresh Flower Vending Machine: Sell Bouquets 24/7 Without Staff
Customers can't buy flowers outside florist opening hours. A refrigerated vending machine offers fresh bouquets around the clock โ no staff required.
The business operates by placing a refrigerated, transparent vending machine in a high-footfall location. The operator sources fresh bouquets from a wholesale supplier, restocks several times a week, and monitors inventory remotely. Revenue is fully automated โ a card payment terminal processes each transaction without any staff involvement. The key success factors are the right location, a reliable supplier, and disciplined restocking logistics.
Traditional florists close by early evening, yet the need to give flowers arrives unexpectedly โ when a relative is admitted to hospital, before a spontaneous visit, or just before catching a train. Customers currently have no good alternative and leave empty-handed or settle for a wilting bunch from a petrol station.
๐A clear gap outside opening hours
Traditional florists do not cover late evenings, Sundays, or bank holidays. A vending machine fills that gap as the only available sales channel during those hours.
