Vending in the United Kingdom

Vending in the UK was significantly disrupted by the pandemic as vending machines predominantly target closed sites such as academic institutions, hospitals and businesses, which also experienced a substantial decrease in footfall. The channel fully recovered in 2022 to surpass pre-pandemic value sales levels, largely attributed to the normalisation of consumers’ lives that began in 2021 and price increases caused by high inflation in 2022.
