Purified Water Vending Machine -a.k.a.-ATM(Automatic Tubig Machine)

As I was browsing Youtube looking for KSNS (Kabuhayang Swak na Swak) episodes, I came across with a very nice concept of a water vending machine for the masses. Looks like a very old concept because there already vending machines for canned soft drinks, coffee, bottled mineral water and other stuffs I forgot to mention. But never have I seen a vending machine that you can buy water and bringing your own water container. Some advantages of this concept is a fast service where you don’t have to wait for a long time just for a gallon of purified water and it is cheaper because there is no delivery and cleaning service.

But the drawback is you have to clean your own container first before bringing it to the water station vending machine. Usually, conventional water station will do this service for the customer. And if you just want to drink a glass of cold water, for only one peso you can (insert a coin) to buy purified drinking water with free small plastic bag and a straw.

For more info and to see the episode, watch this video after this jump………

Hi! Can you help me what type of business should I have? My sister owns a small building and there is a small space available where I am interested to occupy. My budget is P100-P150T only. I’m thinking of a bigasan business but I’m not sure if it’s worth it. Can you please help me? Thanks so much. More power and God bless.

5 Manuel 04.30.10 at 2:38 pm

@Pauline
I think 100K to 150K budget is good for a rice retailing business and good for you that you already have a space and you sister owns it. But what is more important is the location and what kind of people are living in the area. For example, if the building is located in a commercial area where there are many foot traffic, then there is a good chance of success in your venture or whatever types of business you want to set up. Also, the type of people living in the area. Different types of people have different wants and needs.

Hi,
Good Day!
