This start-up venture offers immediate revenue. It is a vending machine operation that started 2 years ago but was never fully implemented. The machines are the Gourmet Caf System - Saeco D.P. 7P Plus - a high tech, attractive, portable, coin operated machine, with a fresh product customers like. These vending machines have an outstanding design for ease of maintenance and are customer friendly, taking fresh beans and making a fresh hot cup of coffee at time of purchase. The machine model will also make cappuccino and hot chocolate. Sale includes four machines, loosely place in the Boise area. The current owner bought these machines brand new at $4,900/each and has kept them in excellent condition. The machines require no water from the site, needing only a 120v outlet. Machines are easily maintained with the current owner spending about 20 minutes per week, per machine. This is a turnkey operation with stable inventory and a hand held computer for quick diagnostics on the machines. There has been no marketing or strategic site location, as the owner has lost interest in their sales due to a new business venture. A good location should average about $400 in sales per month per machine.

Facilities: None necessary. This is a home-based business.

Competition: There are plenty of people in the vendor business but not with these particular machines.

Growth/Expansion: These machines are moneymakers so it is about location. They need to be placed in high traffic areas and the residents of these areas need to know the machines are available 24/7.

Support/Training: One month or negotiated relationship.

Reason Selling: Other business venture.
