Vending for apartment buildings in Gibraltar.

Gibraltar's big residential developments house hundreds of people under one roof. A machine in the lobby, the residents' gym or the games room sells them drinks, snacks and toiletries without a trip to the shop.

An extra for residents

Developments like Ocean Village, Kings Wharf, Midtown, Eurocity, E1 and the newer estates on the east side are small communities in their own right, and many have a concierge, a residents' gym, a pool or a shared lounge. Some are a fair walk from the nearest shop.

A vending machine gives residents something they notice straight away: a cold drink, a snack or a forgotten toothbrush at any hour, without leaving the building. For a managing agent or developer, it's an easy extra to offer, with no stock or repairs to deal with.

It also suits people working from home, who don't always want to stop and walk to the shop.

Student housing

Student accommodation is a particularly good fit. Students keep late hours, and the University's Europa Suites studios at Europa Point are a long way from Main Street. A machine in a common room or lobby sells them snacks, drinks and toiletries whenever they want them.

Campus machines are covered on our page for the university, colleges and schools.

How it works for a building

The agreement is with whoever manages the common areas, usually the managing agent, the residents' association or the developer. Residents just use the machine and pay by card or phone.

We price by how many people use the building each day. Large developments usually suit our Standard plan, while smaller blocks suit Small Team. We'll confirm the plan when we come to look at the building.

Our team restocks and services the machine on visits arranged with your concierge or building manager, and we follow the building's access rules.

If you manage several buildings, we can look at them together and suggest where a machine would get the most use.

  • Drinks, snacks and toiletries
