Earn 6 figures with these 5 vending-machine ideas

Your next “Cha-ching” could very much be from a simple vending machine.

You read that right, vending machines are once again dominating the world of entrepreneurship. A lot of people on TikTok have been sharing how much they earn just by starting their own vending machine business.

Photo from Unsplash

Some vending machine owners even earn up to 6 figures with only a start-up capital of $1,500 to $3,000 roughly about ₱80,000 to ₱160,000.

If you want to kickstart your business journey, investing in vending machines would be the best way to go. Here are 5 vending machine ideas that you can start with and earn.

1. Snacks

Going with a classic Snacks vending machine definitely works. It can generate lots of sales in any location you put it. Another thing about Snack vending machines is that they are easy to stock up on. You can just buy the inventory at stores.

2. Water and Ice

The Philippines is scorching hot which is why water and ice would make a good vending machine business. Vending machines that hold water and ice are usually low-cost. However, refrigeration is required which is why you need to make sure that the machine is always functioning well.

3. Beverage and Combo

There are also vending machines that let you sell beverages. But why stop there? You can even invest in combo vending machines. You’re just basically investing in two vending machines- one that has beverages and one that has snacks.

Photo from LJay Manayon

It’s important to monitor your items because you have to see which ones sell and which ones don’t.

4. Toys

If you’ve seen videos from Japan, you might see that they have the craziest vending machines. They even have one for toys. Claw machines are great too. They are somewhat challenging versions of vending machines which is a good business idea in the Philippines since Filipinos love a good challenge.

Photo from Nakamoto Yuta

The best thing about claw machines is that people will keep on spending money on them to get the prize that they want. And of course, you won’t have to constantly restock your inventory since toys don’t usually expire.

5. Candy

And last but not the least, a touch of nostalgia. Classic Candy machines have been around for a very long time. Nothing beats the joy of seeing a gumball or candy roll down the machine and catching it with your hands. Although they generate less money, they are good for a start.

Photo from Unsplash

You won’t really know what’s the best business for you until you start. However, you don’t always have to start big and invest a lot, sometimes investing less is best. Vending Machines are available and will possibly help you generate income, one coin at a time.

More Bike Lanes and Bicycle Parking Areas in the Philippines

This time, cyclists are being prioritized.

Senator Raffy Tulfo expressed his plans to expand bike lanes here in the Philippines. To do this, he is looking to introduce a new bill. The senator said that there is a need to establish a formal agency to take charge of implementing bike-related policies, rules, and regulations. This is to ensure the safety of all cyclists in the country.

Photo from Bishal Ale Magar

Why There is a Need for More Bike Lanes

Due to the pandemic and the recent price hikes of fuel, people are now choosing to use environmental-friendly transportation, in this case, bicycles.

With the current road situation in the Philippines, bikers have to share lanes with cars, buses, and even motorcycles. This can become extremely dangerous for all parties and can lead to many vehicular or road accidents.

Photo from Unsplash

More Information on the Bicycle Act

The Bicycle Act or Senate Bill 1698 pushes the idea of creating a local bikeway office. The office will oversee all construction and maintenance of infrastructures that are related to bikes. The city or municipal engineering office will be the one to supervise.

The local bikeway office is also expected to create bike lanes on all the main roads and highways due to the rise in bike usage.

The bill is said to follow a Social Weather Stations survey. According to the survey, about 87% of Filipinos prefer bicycles and public transportation to be prioritized on the road.

Photo from Bishal Ale Magar

The bill also includes the responsibilities and restrictions of cyclists. Some responsibilities are the following: Having one hand on the handlebar at all times; wearing a helmet properly; keeping personal items in a basket or rack; and not riding the bicycle on a sidewalk.

However, the Bikeways Office was pioneered by the Marikina City Council before Tulfo proposed the idea recently.

Should there be more bike lanes in the Philippines? Let us know in the comments.

The model is also famous for reclaiming the word “Bayot” and turning it positive again. In the Visayas, the word “bayot” which means gay, has been used as a negative term pertaining to people part of the LGBTQ Community.

Lukresia openly embraced the word and made it her own, showcasing that she is a proud member of the LGBTQ Community and that being “bayot” is far from negative. .

Gaining fans and supporters on both the local and international scene, Lukresia is definitely not done with her runway domination and we are absolutely here for it. Walking and slaying one runway at a time- Lukresia truly raises both Cebuano and Filipino Pride.
