We are currently searching for suitable lease sites for our automated ice-vending machines. Our patented machines are manufactured by Ice House America and are sold only through a handful of exclusively licensed distributors. With over 2100 operational machines nationally, our automated ice-vending machines have a successful 4-year track record.
The best location for our machine is away from a building, near street access either in the least used parking spaces or somewhere close to the right-of-way. The dimensions of the large machine are 24 feet long, 8 feet wide and 9 feet high. The total required space for the large machine is 200 square feet.
Once a machine is operational, consumers can choose a 16-pound bag of ice or 20 pounds of loose ice dropped directly into their cooler. Open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, the large machine can produce up to 18,000 lbs. of ice in one day. If space is limited, the foot print of a small machine is only 100 square feet and produces up to 6500 lbs. of ice a day.
The machine is connected to water, wastewater, electricity and telephone. It is equipped with monitors that identify problems and call a repair technician if needed. Each machine maintains a $1MM general liability insurance policy. The landlord is named as additional insured and we carry property damage. The machines meet or exceed governmental requirements for health, safety and the environment.
Our model is simple; we generate revenue from selling ice. The lessor generates consistent lease revenue each and every month.
We own the equipment, pay for improvements, including the licenses and fees necessary to construct and operate each machine at each site. The machines are separately metered at our expense. A video clip is worth a thousand words. Click on the picture below to view video:
