Vending Pro Forma - Pure, Simple & Profitable
The vending pro forma is based on adding the water vending machines and water purification
system into your existing business. Hence items such as rent, staff, office equipment, etc.,
are assumed to be nil or very low. All the numbers are based on a 2,000 gallons per day reverse
osmosis system and 2 basic vending machines. The assumption is for 15 vends per hour for only
6 hours a day in off-peak months, 20 vends per hour for mid-season and 30 vends per hour in
peak-season. The reality is there will be periods early in the morning and late at night, where vend
volume is reduced to less than 15, 20 or 30 vends per hour and these hours are excluded from the
pro forma. The elimination of these lower traffic periods is an attempt to present a scenario that is
not "Blue Sky" (unrealistic numbers). The average vend amount is $2.00 (based on the average
price of a 5 gallon fill). (e.g. 15 vends x 6 hours = 90 vends per 6 hour day. 90 vends a day at $2.00 x 30 days in a month = $5,400)
