Turn ice and water into profit at your convenience store, gas station, or other retail location
We’ve been hearing from convenience stores for years that the price of their delivered bunker ice is always increasing. Often, they’re selling it at a loss in the hopes of bringing in customers also buying beer, snacks, or groceries.
Making ice offsite, keeping it refrigerated offsite, and driving it to your location in refrigerated trucks takes a lot of power, fuel, and personnel. These prices are always increasing, causing your bunker ice costs to consistently rise. Plus, when you’re out of stock, you have to hope that your business is important enough to be a priority and get refilled quickly. Ultimately, this is a bad system that doesn’t benefit your business or your customers. But, there is a better and more profitable way.
Thousands of our customers have their IHA vending machines outside of a gas station, convenience store, or other retail location.
Instead of buying 10lbs of ice for a couple bucks, you can make 20lbs of ice for tens of cents! With the capability to make your own fresh, filtered ice, you can finally sell ice with a huge profit margin.
You can make ice for less and sell it for more
The ice is always in stock; you don’t have to wait for your ice to be delivered or disappoint customers with empty bunkers
Vending allows you to sell ice and water 24/7; you can make money even when your retail location is closed
Buyers use the ICE2U app to find their local Twice the Ice vending machine or a participating location. When they visit your location for ice, they often stop in for other goodies too, furthering your revenue potential.
Ice House America works with many companies around the world to provide the best ice and water vending machines possible. It’s not uncommon to see one of our Ice Houses near the parking lot to provide an easy, drive-up solution. Or, you may see one of our smaller vending machines directly at the store entrance or even embedded in the side of the building.
The most popular model for national convenience store chains has been our Inline Merchants. These provide easy ice vending access on the outside of your building and can even provide access inside your business for your team to bag and stock ice or use in product displays.
Ice House America has flexibility when it comes to how we sell and work with our retail business locations.
