Coffee Vending Machine History 

 

 

Wittern Group - 75th Anniversary 

Bank of Vending Machines 

 

In our long history in vending machines, coffee vending machines have always been an important product in our line of vending equipment. Our coffee vending merchandiser has been known through the years as the premier hot beverage merchandiser.  

 

 

1960's Coffee Vending Machine 

 

Back in the 1960's - 

 

Coffee machines were compact and provided all instant coffee products. The coffee vending machines delivered a rich aroma of coffee with your choice of sugar and cream. These freeze dry coffee vending machines also delivered a great cup of hot chocolate, tea, and soup.  The early coffee units used a dial option when selecting the product of choice. 

  

 

Late 1960's - 

 

Coffee vending machines were primarily a secondary vending machine in a location. We realized that coffee sales benefited pastry sales, so we designed a combination coffee & pastry vending machine. This also provided a compact solution to the location.

1970's Coffee Vendor 

 

 

1970's - 

 

Commercial coffee vending machines became a standard vending machine in the industrial plants. Most of our coffee machines were still instant coffee.  We introduced a quality coffee whipper that blended the instant product with the hot water to provide a  quality cup of java, as well as the other selections of hot beverages.

 

 

1979 - 

 

The Wittern Group made a major acquisition when we purchased Vendo's full-line of vending machines, other than the soda drink division. This was our entry into the fresh brewing of coffee in a vending machine. The fresh brew selection provided a location with a gourmet quality cup of coffee.

1990's - 

 

We refined the coffee machine to compliment of new styling across our vending line. We also made improvements on our cup drop system, so that it was easy to change coffee cup size. These units were available in an instant or fresh brew system. This unit also provided 600 cups of hot beverage selections before the cup carousel would need to be filled. 

 

 

 

Today - 

 

We are excited to introduce our newest line of hot beverage machines. This unit has been designed with a European flair. As always our focus has been in providing a compact full size coffee vending machine with the venue of multiple coffee drink options like cappuccino, mocha latte, French vanilla, etc…
