Can you own another franchise at the same time? Most likely, you will be restricted from purchasing a franchise from franchisor that would be a direct competitor to a Vending Machine franchise. However, you may be allowed to purchase a franchise of another type.
According to the Small Business Administration, less than 5% of all franchise units fail each year. This is compared to 30 to 35 percent of small businesses which fail within the first year of operation. However, owning a Vending Machine franchise is not a guaranteed recipe for success. You will still have to comit yourself, your time, and perhaps even make some personal sacrifices in order to succeed.
