One equipment list, one sourcing conversation. We bring model and configuration questions together across your selected equipment.

MODEL & USE

Start with the job the machine must do.

A similar cabinet can hide a different mechanism or service routine. Define what guests will receive, how they will use it and who will refill it.

Exact model: Record the supplier reference, selected version and quantity. Keep dimensions and photographs beside the model name.
Guest experience: Match the prize, food output or printed item to the customer journey. Request a demonstration of the selected workflow.
Daily operation: List staffing, refill access, consumables and cleaning or service needs for that model.

LOCAL SETUP

Price the version your market needs.

Put local requirements in the brief before treating a standard cabinet price as your final equipment price.

Power & payment: Specify input voltage, mains frequency, plug and preferred payment method. Confirm provider and currency compatibility for the order.
Branding & supplies: List artwork, language, included accessories and starter consumables. Identify setup charges and items you will source locally.
Documents: Request documents for the manufacturer, model and destination involved. Agree which checks remain with your local importer or adviser.

COST & DELIVERY

Compare the whole purchase scope.

Keep included costs, exclusions and unresolved items visible. A lower machine price does not establish a lower delivered cost.

Equipment side: Machines, custom options, initial spares and protective packing.
Transport side: Named delivery point, freight scope, insurance and transport responsibilities.
Destination side: Clearance, import charges, local transport, unloading and installation. Confirm who arranges and pays for each item.

ORDER & HANDOVER

Leave the conversation with a written reference.

Use the approved specification and quotation to align the equipment, payment milestones and handover. This website starts the inquiry; commercial terms are agreed for your order.

Before confirmation: Review the contracting party, model schedule, approved artwork and commercial terms.
Before dispatch: Agree the function demonstration, quantity check, package measurements and required documents.
After arrival: Confirm receiving instructions, available manuals, spare parts and the agreed warranty, labor and shipping responsibilities.
