What is a gumball? A ball made of bubble gum that is frequently dispensed from a gumball machine.

Bubble gum is a type of gum that is manufactured for the purpose of blowing bubbles. Available in a wide range of flavors, colors and sizes, bubble gum is fun for all especially children. The most popular place to place to buy a gumball is from your neighborhood restaurant or store, where the owners conveniently place them next to the front door for visibility and easy access. One piece of gum typically costs one quarter.

The average gumball machine can hold up to 400 gumballs at one time which is equal to $100 in revenue, quarters of course! The cost of a typical single head gumball machine can be recouped after selling just one case of bulk gum! A single machine placed in a high traffic location can easily sell a half a case gumballs each week allowing the owner to $2,500+ per year in extra income... and a hand full of good locations, like a mall, can generate significant extra annual income.

The cost of a gumball is typically 5 cents, leaving you a profit of 20 cents. That's an 80% profit margin! Each case of gumballs can generate $212 in revenue, and once the machine is paid for, you get to keep $169.60 of each case sold!

Just like real estate, location in the vending business is the single most important factor you need to consider. Ideally, you'll want to find a high foot traffic location that has a high percentage of children. If you find this, you may opt for a machine that has a large capacity globe, like a spiral gumball machine, so you make less frequent visits to service the machine.

Business owners are often open to having a machine in their store. If you are lucky, ou can keep all the profits yourself. But you should expect you to split the profits, with 25%-30% going to the owner of the store. You keep what is left over.
