Automatic Refreshments – your go-to local and independent vending machine supplier and operator. Since our inception in 2007, we've been rewriting the rules of vending services. Founded by industry veterans who knew there had to be more than just the standard fare. Tired of the declining service standards in big multinational companies, they embarked on a mission to offer something truly different: a vending experience that doesn't just promise but delivers excellence.

Based right here in the Midlands – Our two main distribution warehouse locations are in Hinckley, Leicestershire and Riddings, Derbyshire to be precise.

These locations offer us great access to all the major roads and motorways allowing us to mobilise our dedicated team of engineers and operators quickly to get to our fully managed sites across the East & West Midlands as well as South Yorkshire.

Last year alone, our operated vending machines proudly served over 6 million hot drinks in various workplaces. Our range catered to every taste and preference, from creamy lattes and rich hot chocolates to soothing soups and classic teas. And for the purists, our standard black coffees hit just the right note of simplicity and flavour. Each cup represents our commitment to bringing a little more warmth and enjoyment into your workday.

In the past year, we've been on a mission to keep hunger at bay, successfully dispensing over 400 thousand packets of crisps through our vending machines. Our selection is a crisp-lover's dream, featuring everything from the classic favourites of Walkers to exciting, adventurous flavours like bang bang spicy Thai.

Our team has been energetically ensuring that vending machines across the Midlands are continuously stocked with a wide range of cans and bottles, serving up over 800 thousand last year. As an independent operator, we pride ourselves on offering an extensive selection that includes both Coca-Cola and Pepsi products, as well as everything in between. Our range also features popular energy boosters like Monster, Red Bull, and Lucozade Sport, which have been flying off the shelves. These fast sellers are more than just drinks; they're fuel that keeps workplaces buzzing and energised throughout the day

Rounding off our impressive tally, our machines dispensed over 585 thousand chocolate bars last year, satisfying sweet cravings across the board. Among our top sellers were the irresistible Kinder Bueno, the classic Mars, the crunchy Twix, and the ever-popular Kit Kat. And for those seeking healthier alternatives, we haven’t forgotten you! We're fully equipped to offer a range of healthy options for sites that prefer a more nutritious selection. Our commitment is to cater to all tastes and dietary requirements, ensuring everyone finds their perfect snack
