The equipment need
The operator had launched in the spring with fifteen machines spread across two service routes.
The results justified opening a third route covering about ten new towns.
The operating company, created a few months earlier, had no usable accounting history.
Buying ten machines with its own funds would have consumed all of its start-up cash.
- Refrigerated pizza vending machines
- Built-in ovens and cooking modules
- Payment and remote monitoring systems
- Machine wraps and site connections
The support described in the project
Leaseworld presented the application with the support of the holding company that owns the operating company.
Results from the first two routes served as a numerical benchmark to show per-machine profitability.
A finance lease was put in place, with payments sized to the expected margin per machine.
The supplier, a machine manufacturer, was paid directly upon delivery and commissioning of the machines.
The reported operational outcome
The ten machines were deployed without a significant down payment from the operator.
Cash was preserved to finance inventory and restocking routes.
Lease payments are covered by the revenue of the installed machines.
The operated fleet grew from fifteen to twenty-five machines across three routes.
Applying the experience to a new project
