The UK vending and coffee industry is steady but evolving. Operators are exploring ways to modernize and meet changing consumer preferences while maintaining growth. With the right approach, there’s potential to move forward. Vendon and Coges understand these needs and are coming to Vendex Midlands to meet operators, share insights, and build new connections.
Chris Pyrah, Sales Manager for Coges and Vendon in the UK, sees this every day. “The UK market is challenging. Operators need solutions that actually work—no unnecessary complexity or high fees. We’re focused on making things simple and reliable, so our clients can concentrate on growing their business,” he explains. This practical approach has earned them the trust of leading operators across the Europe.
Vendon Cloud is a key reason for this trust. It provides real-time data insights that help operators track sales, optimize stock, and maintain machines efficiently. Its user-friendly design makes managing mixed coffee machine fleets simpler, giving operators the control they need to make smarter decisions. Vendon Cloud isn’t just another tech platform—it’s a practical tool solving real problems. That’s why it’s trusted by Nestlé, a global leader in the OCS market.
But success in vending isn’t just about managing machines. It’s about connecting with customers. Coges helps operators do that with secure, adaptable payment solutions. Broderic’s, one of the UK’s leading vending operators, uses Coges’ digital payment app, Pay4Vend, to engage younger, tech-savvy customers and build loyalty. It’s designed to fit seamlessly into existing systems without hidden fees or complicated setups.
“We’re not just here to sell products. We’re here to understand our clients’ challenges and help them succeed. That’s what drives us,” adds Chris Pyrah.
This year at Vendex Midlands, Vendon and Coges invite operators to see how their solutions solve real business challenges. They’re also hinting at big news that could make managing vending and coffee operations even more connected and efficient. This announcement reflects their commitment to simplifying business operations and supporting growth.
For operators looking to modernize and grow, Vendon and Coges offer a trusted partnership built on reliability and practical solutions. This year at Vendex Midlands, they’re not just bringing products—they’re bringing answers.
