National Vending Day is a celebration for the millions of Americans who buy their snacks, beverages and non-consumable items from a vending machine every day.

Vending is the cornerstone of the conveniences services industry. With a total economic impact of more than $35 billion, the convenience services industry employs over 160,000 hard-working Americans, pays $10.4 billion in wages, and contributes $3.5 billion taxes at every level of government.

From traditional vending and micro markets, office coffee and pantry services, manufacturing, and small-drop distribution – unattended retail meets the needs of over 40 million American consumers daily at work, home, school, and play.

Stay tuned for more information about how to get involved in National Vending Day 2024.
