J&J Companies runs specialty vending for venues and ships turnkey machines to operators nationwide.
Two machines live at a casino outlet, stocked, serviced and monitored by us.
purchases from our collectibles machine in one 30-day stretch (August 2026)
premium Hot Wheels at $39.99 each, sold through in under two weeks
remote monitoring of sales and stock on every machine
Every line runs through one operator with enterprise experience behind him — people leadership at Target, Sodexo and Legends Hospitality, then COO of a national retail automation company — who now runs his own machines.
We own the machine, buy the inventory, stock it and service it. Your venue gets a lit, branded machine and a share of every sale, with no staff and no cash handling.
Machines set up the way we run our own, delivered ready to sell: function-tested, custom-wrapped, card reader installed and connected, remote setup and an onboarding guide, with a parts warranty.
How to run a small vending business like an enterprise: sourcing, pricing, remote monitoring, reconciliation and the automation that keeps a one-person operation on schedule.
Sealed trading cards and premium Hot Wheels behind lit glass: the machines we run today. Host one at your venue, or buy one set up the way we run ours, tested and ready to sell.
Tape, laces, wax, mouthguards and pucks in one lit, self-serve machine wrapped in your rink's identity. Open every hour the ice is, with no counter to staff.
Food, smart retail, collectibles, sports, amusement, workplace and more. Every unit ships wrapped, connected and configured to the location.
