What workplace teams feel
Pantry gaps cost time and goodwill.
Staff leave the building for a drink or a snack, pantries run out mid-afternoon and facilities teams chase refills by hand. A smart machine closes those gaps.
Traditional office pantry
- Stock runs out and nobody notices until someone complains.
- Cash boxes and honesty trays are hard to reconcile.
- Late shifts and weekends have no service at all.
Wendor workplace layer
- Snacks, drinks and essentials on the floor, around the clock.
- Cashless checkout by card, wallet or QR in a few seconds.
- Live stock and sales data so refills are planned, not guessed.

Vending in United Kingdom
Running vending machines in the United Kingdom
UK buyers expect contactless payment everywhere and a machine that looks after itself between service visits. The regulatory side is light but specific: register as a food business with your council and follow allergen labelling rules for anything prepacked on site.
How people pay in the United Kingdom
Most UK vending sales are now contactless. Cash-only machines lose sales, especially in offices and transport hubs.
- Contactless cards
- Visa, Mastercard and Amex tap-to-pay, including debit cards from every UK bank.
- Apple Pay and Google Pay
- Phone and watch payments, often the majority in office and university sites.
- Staff and student cards
- Closed-loop credit for subsidised workplace and campus vending.
Licences and rules
- Food business registration
- Register with the local council at least 28 days before you start selling food or drink. Registration is free.
- Allergen labelling (Natasha’s Law)
- Food that is prepacked for direct sale needs a full ingredients list with allergens emphasised. Sealed branded products already carry this.
- VAT
- Standard VAT is 20%. Many cold foods are zero-rated, but confectionery, crisps and soft drinks are standard-rated.
- Product safety marking
- Machines sold in Great Britain need UKCA or CE marking and must meet electrical safety rules.
Pricing and tax
New machines are usually budgeted from about £1,200 to £15,000+, and a small launch from about £2,000 to £20,000 once stock, insurance and setup are added.
- Quotes are in pounds, with shipping, duty and VAT shown separately.
- Telemetry cuts wasted service visits, which is where UK operators spend most of their margin.
- Public liability insurance is normally required by the site owner.
On the ground
- Power
- 230 V, 50 Hz with standard UK three-pin plugs.
- Service model
- Remote monitoring lets you restock and service only when a machine needs it, not on a fixed route.
- How we support the rollout
- Our international team scopes the project with you, and every machine reports stock, sales and faults in real time. Most issues are diagnosed remotely, and you see the same dashboard we do.
Where first machines usually go
- Offices and co-working spacesHealthy snacks and drinks, often subsidised by the employer.
- Universities and collegesLate-night study spaces and halls of residence.
- Hospitals and care settingsRound-the-clock access for staff on night shifts.
- Gyms and leisure centresProtein snacks, drinks and supplements.
This is a planning guide, not legal or tax advice. Rules and rates change, so confirm current requirements with the authority named before you launch. Which payment methods a machine accepts depends on the payment terminal and gateway chosen for your sites.
