“When I attended Healthy YOUniversity, there were so many important things that were taught, and the hands-on part was probably the best. Getting to open the machines, see the machines, work them. Going to Healthy YOUniversity class should not be missed.”

–Donna W, Vestavia Hills, AL

“I know there are tutorials, guides and even coaches over the phone. Which is all wonderful to have, but to actually be on site using the machine has been priceless.”

–Jamie, Goleta, CA

“The ability to be hands on with the machines…is invaluable. I think anybody who buys a machine without attending this is probably making a mistake with their business. If they want a successful business they should make it out to Healthy YOUniversity.”
–Healthy YOUniversity attendee

“I would recommend Healthy YOUniversity to anybody who gets into the vending business. Everybody has gone out of their way to let you know that they support you.”

–Mark G, Highlands Ranch, CO

“They’ve got something really, really special. It’s one thing to be successful. It’s another thing to teach others how to be successful just like you. That says a lot about who they are. “

–Sabrina B, Chicago, IL

Rest assured—you’re not alone! HealthyYOU Vending’s support team has been asked A LOT of questions over the year. Get the FAQs to five of the most commonly asked questions:

Q. Why is HealthyYOU Vending the #1 choice for entrepreneurs?
A. Experience. Reputation. Innovation. Not only do you want a healthy vending machine you can depend on, you want a company you can rely on. Welcome to HealthyYOU Vending! Our equipment, support and professionalism are unparalleled in the industry. You’re not just buying some healthy vending machines for sale − you’re starting a business “partnership” with an equipment provider. The HealthyYOU Vending system is designed to help owner-operators maximize business potential with our exclusively built machine, our unbeatable long-term support and the strongest guarantees in the industry. At HealthyYOU Vending, we’re in it for the long haul — and we’re with you every step of the way!

Q. What makes HealthyYOU Vending’s machine the best?
A. Over the past decade, we’ve purchased, scrutinized and tested virtually every vending machine on the market. Our extensive research led us to develop the most ideal healthy vending machine ever. If you’re serious about making money, then you want a superior machine that:

• has the capability of accepting credit & debit cards
• provides Remote Machine Monitoring (RMM)
• stocks the optimal number of product selections for most consumers
• includes a 7-year Limited Warranty
• has the option of vending healthy entrees and side dishes

To sum it up: HealthyYOU vending machines have “all of the virtues and none of the vices” of other vending machines. As a healthy vending machine business owner-operator, you want versatility, security and stability. Above all, you want the best return on your money. That’s what you’ll find with a HealthyYOU Vending machine.

Q: How much product can each HealthyYOU Vending machine hold?
A. Each HealthyYOU Vending machine can hold up to 337 healthy snacks and drinks. With the optional Entrée/Side Dish Vendor, your capacity grows to over 415 healthy snacks, drinks and entrées. We have found 21 healthy snack selections and 8 healthy drink options to be the ideal amount of product to store in a single machine/location in order to maintain ideal freshness and variety for your customers — and to maximize your cash flow and your investment.

Q: Are there good healthy vending locations available in my area?
A. You bet! There are prime healthy vending locations available all across the U.S. and Canada—and there are most likely hundreds of locations available right in your own market area. Your HealthyYOU Vending Training Program provides you with a list of the top locations for your machines. And as a new HealthyYOU Vending operator, you are eligible for assistance from our Prime Healthy Locations team.

Q. Do  I have to pay HealthyYOU Vending licensing, trademark or other ongoing fees and royalties?
A: Why should you?! Our philosophy is different than any other healthy vending company: this is YOUR business, so YOU keep the profits. You never have to pay HealthyYOU Vending licensing, trademark or other ongoing fees/royalties.

If you are new to the healthy vending industry, you are likely starting with zero experience. You’ll rely heavily on the vending company you invest with to not only help you get up and running, but also to help you succeed in every aspect of your new business.  In other words, to avoid failure, you need to shorten the learning curve as much as possible.

The Key Word is Vending
Some healthy vending companies claim that they’ve been “in business” for a number of years — yet, when you dig deeper, you’ll discover they don’t have much vending industry experience at all. HealthyYOU Vending is comprised of a team that has been established in the vending industry for over 15 years — and in that time, you could say we’ve learned a thing or two about what it takes to be successful.

15 years in business
Over 5,000 distributors nationwide
100,000 machines sold

Success by the Numbers
The team at HealthyYOU Vending has sold nearly 100,000 healthy vending machines in the U.S. and Canada. Can the other guys say that? Even more important, however, is the number of distributors/operators a vending company has. How many people — like YOU — have they supplied with equipment or helped start a vending business? For us, that number is over 5,000. We’ve helped people of all backgrounds succeed in the vending industry, and we’ll use our knowledge to help you, too. No one knows what we know in helping people get off to a successful start in addition to maintaining a successful vending business.

Long-term Experience
Many healthy vending companies just haven’t been in business long enough to know, long term, what works and what doesn’t work in operating a successful vending business. They may have a great website, a cool looking machine, and great videos, but they don’t have the one thing you need more than anything else: long-term experience. No matter how hard they try and how much they want to help, they just don’t know how best to support you. They can’t teach you what they don’t know.

With over 15 years of vending experience, having sold nearly 100,000 machines, and utilizing a combined experience of over 5,000 customers, our team knows what equipment you need in addition to what you need to do in order to be successful. We will teach you these things right up front. You don’t have to reinvent the wheel or learn by making your own mistakes. Experience matters, and we can help.

Here’s to your healthy vending success!

We don’t push some crazy agenda, or burden you with unnecessary fees. We don’t make you buy product directly from us or plaster our name all over your healthy vending machines. That’s simply NOT the HealthyYOU Vending way. When you invest in a HealthyYOU Vending business, it’s YOURS. You’re an independent business owner and we recognize that it’s not about us — it’s about YOU. That’s the HealthyYOU Vending difference.

Our Only Agenda Is Helping Your Healthy Vending Business Succeed

Some healthy vending companies are trying to convince you to push their name and their agenda—and even pay them royalties for it! But think about it: whose name should be on YOUR healthy vending machine — yours or theirs? When someone sees your HealthyYOU Vending machine at a location and thinks, ‘Hey, I want one of these at my place of business!’ do you want them to call the machine supplier or you? Of course it should be you!

So that’s why you won’t find our name and website all over your HealthyYOU Vending machines. We’ll even create a personal QR code for the front of your machine, so if someone wants to learn more about becoming a HealthyYOU Vending location they can scan the code and be directly connected to your website, so YOU benefit from the potential new location!

No Franchise Fees or Unnecessary Restrictions

We don’t burden you with franchise, royalty or recurring fees. Why should we? Some healthy vending companies charge astronomical up-front and ongoing fees for their franchise model.

As an independent HealthyYOU Vending distributor, you’ll never:

• Pay an initial franchise fee
• Pay ongoing royalty fees
• Pay for Healthy YOUniversity training or Lifetime Coaching
• Pay extra for a credit card reader/remote monitoring (RMM)
• Pay us a percentage for income generated via media screen advertising
• Pay a replacement fee for a lost manual
• Pay astronomical machine shipping charges

We also won’t:

• Make you buy product from us or restrict your supplier list
• Assign you locations (unless you ask us for Location Acquisition Assistance)
• Force you to run your business within strict guidelines
• Audit your financial records

That just isn’t the HealthYOU Vending way of doing business. We’ll help you in any way we can, but we recognize that it’s your business. You’re in control, and you get to keep your profits. That’s just the way it should be.

• 7-Year Limited Warranty on each and every part of every HealthyYOU Vending machine
• Shipping Assurance Guarantee
• Lifetime Vandalism/Fire/Theft Protection Guarantee
• Lifetime Pricing Guarantee
• Lifetime Coaching and Support Guarantee

7-year Limited Warranty
It’s not just important to have a 7-Year Limited Warranty — it’s critical. After all, your HealthyYOU vending machines are your income-producing assets. You need the ideal vending machines to get into the best locations, but even more importantly, you need the best healthy vending machines to STAY in the best locations. Malfunctioning machines take customers’ money and cause headaches for the location. Continuing problems will cause the location to ask to have the machine removed and a new location must be found. Our 7-Year Limited Warranty covers EACH and EVERY part of our American-made HealthyYOU Vending machines! The bottom line is: no 7-Year Limited Warranty on the entire vending machine = bad investment decision.

Shipping Assurance Guarantee
Unlike most vending companies, HealthyYOU Vending won’t make you go through the hassles of filing a claim with the shipping company should there be any damage to your machines. In the unlikely event of shipping damage, HealthyYOU Vending will resolve the matter quickly and without delay.

Lifetime Vandalism/Fire/Theft Protection Guarantee
In the unlikely event of vandalism, fire or theft, HealthyYOU Vending will replace, with a 50% deductible, any healthy vending machine part purchased directly from us. A police report of the vandalism, fire or theft incident is required.

Lifetime Pricing Guarantee
HealthyYOU Vending will permanently honor the prices listed in your Authorized Distributor Price List at the time of your initial investment. Although we will experience price increases from time to time, you will be locked in for life at the lower investment price.

Lifetime Coaching and Support Guarantee
HealthyYOU Vending provides the most complete, on-going training in the healthy vending industry. Period. Best of all, it’s included with your investment. Beginning with our two-day intensive Healthy YOUniversity training, our seasoned in-house coaching staff is ready to assist you in every aspect of launching, growing and maintaining your new healthy vending business. For questions, concerns, instructions or ideas — just ask!

The Healthy Bottom Line
You want a healthy vending machine you can depend on, backed by a company you can trust. At HealthyYOU Vending, we’re with you every step of the way. Your success — and ours — depends on it! That’s why we’re the only company in the healthy vending industry to offer our exclusive Five-Star Guarantee. Contact your HealthyYOU Vending representative today at 1.800.775.4605 to learn more!
