Why buy a concession stand?
Buying a commercial-grade concession stand is the perfect low-cost alternative to building a brick-and-mortar shop at your park, zoo, aquarium, or other large venue or sports complex. They are meant to be small, portable food, snack and refreshment vendors located near high traffic attractions to enhance the guest experience.
Here is why you want to choose this type of mobile vendor to meet your sales objectives in more detail.
Mobility and portability
Conditions change frequently in public venues such as zoos, aquariums, circuses and even stadiums, especially when you are hosting special events. Traffic patterns can change as can your vending offerings, depending on demand. While a brick and mortar souvenir shop may be strategically placed at an entrance, your customers and guests are going to want on-demand food, snacks and refreshments.
A well-designed commercial concession stand is light-weight, yet sturdy, and easy to move into the most convenient, high-traffic locations to generate the most sales.
Flexibility
A well-built concession stand offers a lot of flexibility to be able to adjust quickly to changing customer trends. The ideal stand offers a wide assortment of shelving configurations, ample counter space, locking storage and the ability to add additional units and functionality effortlessly and seemlessly.
As is the case with any commercial vending, you need to be able to ensure a positive customer experience. To do this you need to be equipped for high volume sales. This means having ample equipment and supplies at your disposal to be able to vend concessions efficiently and effectively. Robust concession stands are designed to accommodate these requirements and offer the flexibility you need to boost your sales.
Cost-effective vending
Portable concession stands offer a cost-effective vending solution. Why spend a fortune on a fixed, brick-and-mortar location for building or upgrades? The same goals can be met if you buy commercial-grade mobile units at a much lower price.
You can configure a well-designed stand in the way that best serves your requirements, including customizing and branding. In addition, the stand can be easily moved as demand and objectives shift.
What it takes to be commercial-grade
For a concession stand to be considered commercial-grade, it must be designed from the ground up for high volume, continuous sales. It must also be compliant with local health, fire and electrical regulations.
