We require 3 separate accounts to service the University being Catering@Aston, Sport Aston & Student Union details of the current / required machines have been attached to this project. The aim of this tender is to create a much improved vending service that extends the vending offer to a larger proportion of the population through innovative machine placement and marketing, a refreshed range of vended items for sale, improved servicing of machines and a robust maintenance regime. We require a fully managed service with commission on sales paid to the relevant account on a monthly basis.
