Description

The County of El Dorado is seeking a qualified vendor to install, stock, maintain, and operate fresh‑food and snack vending machines on County facilities in both the East Slope (South Lake Tahoe) and West Slope (Placerville‑to‑El Dorado Hills) regions for a three‑year term. The contractor will own the equipment, bear all operational costs, and provide service calls within 48 hours at no charge to the County. Machines must be new, Energy‑Star Tier II, cash‑ and cashless‑payment capable, and comply with all applicable health, safety, and accessibility regulations. No minimum machine count or sales volume is guaranteed. • Supply, install, and maintain approximately 5 vending machines (≈ 2 East Slope, ≈ 3 West Slope), with the possibility of adding more at the County’s request. • Keep machines clean, fully functional, and regularly stocked with non‑expired fresh‑grab‑and‑go food items (mandatory for West Slope) and additional snack/beverage items for East Slope. • Collect cash, issue refunds, post clear service‑call and refund notices on each machine, and respond to service requests within 48 hours, all at the vendor’s expense.

Budget estimate

$500,000 – $1,500,000

No explicit contract value is disclosed; the vendor will generate revenue from product sales while covering all operating costs. Assuming five machines each generate an average net profit of $4,000–$6,000 per month, annual profit would range $240,000–$360,000, resulting in a three‑year profit of roughly $720,000–$1,080,000. Accounting for possible seasonal variation, inventory costs, and additional machine additions, a reasonable estimate is $500,000 to $1,500,000 over the contract term.
