Tahoe Vending and Sonoran Coffee and Food Services
is a young, aggressive company committed to a superior
customer experience. Launched in Northern Nevada in July
2018, the company now has over 600 points of sale with more
than $4M in annual revenue. From the onset, the company
made the decision to purchase its own beverage vending equipment, enabling its leadership to greatly
expand the variety of drinks offered to clients. The company
became a Canteen franchise in order to receive the best in
market pricing for products and equipment, allowing for
further growth. They are USConnect affiliates and Randolph
Sheppard Act Operators, and they work with all the major
vending management companies. The company looks at secondary sources of revenue - advertising, water delivery and
distribution - to help the bottom line and expand offerings
to customers. They believe in offering diversity in products,
including fresh food from a local baker and other small and
local suppliers. The leadership says the biggest challenge for
the company will be continuing to add accounts and broaden
product offerings while maintaining the highest level of
customer support.
