A smooth vending or smart-store installation depends on placement, electrical access, clearances, building access, and a vendor that owns the launch details.
Most properties need a visible location, appropriate electrical access, safe clearances, building access for delivery, and agreement on service expectations. AI Vending confirms those requirements during the site survey.

Use this as the first-pass filter before a site survey confirms the right setup.
| Requirement | What to confirm | Owner |
|---|---|---|
| Space | Footprint, clearance, and circulation | Property and vendor |
| Electrical | Outlet or dedicated circuit needs | Vendor confirms, property approves access |
| Connectivity | Cellular or network approach | Vendor |
| Delivery | Loading path and timing | Vendor coordinates with property |
| Launch stocking | Initial product mix and support contact | Vendor |
The property needs enough space for the equipment, safe circulation around it, appropriate electrical access, and a placement that people will actually use. The vendor should verify these items before promising a specific format.
A site survey should not be a quick glance. It should confirm where demand exists, whether the equipment can be installed cleanly, how service visits will happen, and whether a compact setup, larger smart store, or micro market is the right fit.
Property teams should not have to source equipment, configure payment terminals, write a restocking plan, or troubleshoot launch issues. Those responsibilities should sit with the vending partner.
Answers are specific to AI Vending's managed smart-store, vending, and micro-market model.
Some equipment may need dedicated electrical access depending on the setup. AI Vending confirms the requirement during the site survey before installation.
AI Vending can use equipment connectivity that does not require property Wi-Fi, which keeps many installations simpler for building teams.
Timing depends on the selected setup, building access, and electrical readiness. Compact installations are usually faster than larger smart-store or micro-market layouts.
AI Vending manages stocking and service after launch. Property staff are not expected to restock products.
