Prime sites. Already locked in.
Getting a machine into a great location is the whole game. We don't do that ourselves, we've partnered with an exclusive third-party micro-retail leasing agency whose nationwide agreements sit across every major Australian shopping-centre and retail property group. When you come in with us, you plug straight into that pipeline.

Nationwide exclusivity, held by our leasing partner.
To be clear: the nationwide exclusivity with the major property groups sits with our third-party micro-retail leasing agency, not with Vend Brands. We're the equipment, brand and operations partner. They're the placement engine. Together it's a shortcut most operators simply can't get.

A placement stack that would take years to build.
Access to Tier-1 landlords
Westfield, Vicinity, Stockland, Mirvac, GPT, Lendlease, Charter Hall, Dexus, QIC, ISPT, engaged through our partner's existing head agreements.
Site selection done for you
Foot-traffic data, demographics, adjacency to anchor tenants and dwell zones, sites are shortlisted by our partner, not guessed at.
Lease admin off your plate
Licence terms, insurance certificates, centre inductions and renewals are handled by the leasing agency team.
What we ask of you.
Great sites come with real standards. To protect the venue, the brand and every other operator in the network, partners agree to a clear set of commercial and operational terms.
Two months' bond, paid in advance
Every site placement carries a two-month site bond, paid up-front. It secures the pitch, covers the landlord's expectations and is held against ongoing compliance.
Rules & compliance, non-negotiable
Centre codes of conduct, trading hours, insurance, safety and reporting standards must be followed to the letter. Non-compliance risks the site, and the network.
Always operational
Machines must remain fully operational. Faults are triaged fast, downtime is tracked, and repeat outages are treated as a service breach.
Fully stocked & spotlessly clean
Stock levels, product presentation and machine cleanliness are inspected. A machine that looks tired is a machine that loses the site.
Professional on site, always.
Uniformed service visits, respectful conduct with centre management, clean vehicles, tidy restocks. You're representing the brand and the landlord every time you (or your team) show up. We won't compromise on that, and neither will our leasing partner.
We prefer partners who think big.
One-off single-machine operators are welcome, but our energy goes into partners ready to run an area, a territory, or a whole state. If that's you, let's talk properly.
Area Partner
Take a defined metro area, cluster of centres, suburbs or a precinct. Multiple machines, one operator, one relationship with the landlords.
Territory Leader
Own a whole region, a capital city zone or major regional catchment. Scaled fleet, priority on new-site releases inside the territory.
State Master
Statewide rights. First right of refusal on every new placement released by our leasing partner inside your state. Serious capital, serious upside.
These are commercial conversations, not application forms. If you have the capital, the operational bandwidth and the ambition, we're open to structuring something that gives you real ownership of a region.
A whole region.
One operator. You.
Australia's major shopping-centre networks aren't just a list of sites, they're a compounding pipeline. Every centre refurb, every new anchor, every seasonal activation is another placement opportunity. An area partner riding that pipeline builds a fleet that grows itself.
- First look at new sites released in your territory.
- Fleet-level economics, service, restocking and logistics scale down per-machine.
- A defensible position: no competing Vend Brands operator inside your patch.
- A real business, resaleable, financeable, hire-a-team-able.
The rough shape of an area partnership
Illustrative only, every partnership is structured to the region, the operator and the pipeline available.
