UNSPSC 48110000: Vending machines

UNSPSC 48110000 Vending machines, a Family code, encompasses the supply, installation, maintenance, stocking, and operation of coin- and card-activated beverage, snack, and combination vending equipment across state and local government facilities—including schools, courthouses, community colleges, county offices, fire stations, and public parks. State and local buyers under this code procure machines that accept multiple payment methods, meet ADA compliance and energy-efficiency standards, and operate under revenue-sharing or fixed-fee service arrangements where the vendor assumes equipment ownership, maintenance, and operational costs while remitting commissions or fees to the public entity.

Issuing bodies soliciting under the code span county governments (Orange County, California; Pinellas County and Hillsborough County, Florida; Sussex County, New Jersey; Solano County, California), municipal entities (City of New London, Connecticut), school districts (Middlesex Community College in Massachusetts; Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City ISD in Texas), and specialized public agencies (Maryland Health Benefit Exchange). The County of Orange's five-year vending contract for 40 locations across administrative offices, health agencies, law enforcement facilities, and libraries—with OCLSB and DVBE preference set-asides of 5 to 8 percent—and Middlesex Community College's three-year snack and beverage vending RFP for 14 machines across two campuses represent recent activity in the code. Recent opportunities cluster in California, Texas, Florida, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Michigan, and New Jersey, with activity spanning both single-location and multi-site procurements. The Orange County IFB (IFB-017-3016702-JC), due July 8, 2026, sought bids for furnishing, installation, stocking, servicing, and maintenance of cold beverage, snack, coffee, hot beverage, food, and personal product machines across approximately 40 county locations under a five-year revenue-sharing arrangement with 20 to 25 percent commissions on monthly sales. Middlesex Community College's RFP (MCC2022-02), due June 22, 2026, solicited snack and beverage vending proposals for 14 machines at two campuses under a three-year initial term with commission-based compensation tied to historical annual revenue between $31,000 and $39,000. Sussex County, New Jersey's April 2026 RFP sought vendor-driven vending solutions across seven county facilities with evaluation emphasis on management experience and technical capabilities, while Montgomery County, Maryland and the Maryland Health Benefit Exchange both posted vending procurement activity focused on employee cafeteria service. Activity is active across multiple states and jurisdiction types, with commission-based compensation models and multi-year terms characterizing recent opportunities.
