Thank you for your inquiry about becoming a Good 4 U Vending Services Operator. As you know, Good 4 U Vending Services is dedicated to replacing junk food in vending machines with healthy snacks and drinks. With the recent attention to the growing problem of obesity in America, our business is growing by leaps and bounds.

We have unfulfilled requests for our machines and products, and this means a fantastic opportunity for you. All Good 4 U operators are independent business people who use our special vending machines and stock our healthy products. They benefit from our stellar reputation in the vending industry and from our corporate advertising. Our operators can choose from various levels of involvement.

You may choose to service and restock all your machines yourself, service only part of a route, or hire our expert employees to service and restock for you. Routes may be expanded or contracted to fit your goals. Please visit our website and then review all the information we’ve included in this packet to determine if owning a Good 4 U vending route is right for you.

As you can imagine, profits and workload are largely dependent on the vending route and the buying habits of the route’s customers, so we cannot quote exact prices and expected earnings in this letter.
