The launch of vending machines in India witnessed that there was always a helper, who took the money from the consumer and operated the machine since the concept was absolutely new to most of the people and especially in remote areas where such machines are installed even lately; the helper is present since literacy rate in our country is still low as a result of which many consumers are still not able to operate the machine in an proper manner.

In the recent years, it has been observed that vending has continued to have an insignificant presence in India for retail purchases and majority of the vending machines operating in the country are being used for institutional sales purpose only. Therefore, the vending industry has a long way to cover in order to register optimal profits and revenues and it has been anticipated that only when the number of vending machines across India are multiplied exponentially year after year; the vending industry will be able to show some level of consistency in growth initially followed by further developments at increasing rates in future years.

One of the most famous vending machines manufacturers of India named “Beta Automation” that operates from Coimbatore came up back in 2014 and since then it has been bringing up innovations after proper investigation of the market requirements, market structure and demand and supply shifts. The company has majorly catered to industries involving apparel, pharmaceuticals, jewelry, tools, stationery, mobile, agriculture, food manufacturing and has also set up seed vending machines. Lately, in line with the frauds people are indulged more into nowadays; the vending machines have been designed by Beta in a way that fits in the enhanced vibration sensors, alarms and triggers the capability of these futuristic shopping machines to identify fake and torn currency notes such that revenue from this already slow paced industry is not hampered.

Also, the Airports Authority of India have supported the arrival of vending in the country to a large extent and whenever one visits the airports in India, such vending machines are available in abundance to offer convenience to the consumers. Furthermore, it is foreseen that all the Indian airports will install ‘sanitary napkin’ vending machines to promote a holistic development of the Indian economy. The first machine has already been set up at Indore Airport and recently, the airports in places like Kolkata, Jaipur, Bhubaneswar, Port Blair, Trivandrum, Vishakhapatnam, Vadodara, Pune, Guwahati, Varanasi and Surat have also got these machines which will spread all across the country with the passage of time.

Moreover, the Indian government has continued to contribute in the best manner possible by aiding in maintenance of vending machines in all metropolitan cities in India including Delhi, Mumbai and Bangalore. For instance, in an effort to raise awareness amongst people about safe sex; the government sponsored installation of vending machines selling packets of condoms. With more such awareness campaigns and ongoing advancements towards economic progress; this industry is expected to blossom in another ten years.

It has been noticed that the major convenience stores’ players have commenced with expansion into vending industry and thereby new vending machines with various functions are currently being developed and launched, including food vending machines, dairy drinks vending machines and soft drinks vending machines. Overall, the vending industry is projected to record an affirmative growth majorly owing to the amplifying number of product types that will be sold through vending machines in the coming years. Hence, that day is no far when vending machines will be as popular as ATMs are today in India.
