Hey PH, I'm Zach, founder of VendPlacer.
I built this after talking to vending machine operators who were spending months cold-calling businesses just to find one location. The whole process was broken and no marketplace existed for it.
VendPlacer fixes that. We have 35,000+ verified locations across 300+ cities including gyms, hotels, offices, warehouses, laundromats, and schools. Operators browse and contact property owners directly in minutes.
We launched 3 months ago and already have 90+ paying operators finding locations through the platform. No brokers, no middlemen, no cold calling.
Happy to answer any questions about the vending industry, the marketplace model, or how we built it. AMA.
A foot traffic heatmap for each location would be huge. Knowing the location's exact address is helpful, but seeing when the area actually gets busy (by hour and day) would help operators decide if it's worth the placement fee.
Such an exciting launch for The Airbnb for Vending Machine Placement — huge congrats to the makers! 🚀
Love how clean the marketplace layout is, makes scrolling through locations in different cities feel almost like browsing Airbnb listings. Solid execution on the filters too.
Love how clean the location browsing experience is. The map-first design makes it instantly obvious which spots have real foot traffic versus the dead zones every vending operator learns to avoid the hard way.
Honestly, the listings feel pretty solid, like actually real spots and not just random warehouses. Kinda wild how many cities are already covered, makes it feel legit right away.
Honestly kind of surprised this isn't already a thing, the listings on here are pretty solid and I found three spots near me that get decent foot traffic. Wish the map view had more filters but overall a useful tool for anyone building a route.
Finally a way to skip the awkward door-to-door pitch when scouting new spots. The listings in my area actually look legit with real foot traffic notes.
Finally something like this exists, honestly thought about this problem myself before. The 309 cities thing is kind of wild, would love to know how many listings are actually live versus just placeholder spots.
