Vending machines aren’t just for snacks—they’re one of the most accessible ways to generate passive income in Canada. Whether you’re a side-hustler, investor, or someone looking to supplement their 9-to-5, vending machines offer a real opportunity for hands-off earnings with high flexibility and low overhead.

But here’s the catch: success in vending depends heavily on execution. That’s why at Feel Good Snacks, we’ve designed a one-stop solution that takes the guesswork, stress, and heavy lifting out of the process.

If you want vending income without managing day-to-day logistics, this guide is for you.

Why Vending Machines Work as Passive Income Let’s define what passive income really means: it’s money earned with minimal ongoing effort.

While many side gigs require constant input (e.g., rideshare, Airbnb hosting), vending machines let you:

Generate 24/7 income
Avoid staffing costs
Start with a single location
Scale at your own pace

For example, a well-placed machine can earn $300–$800/month after costs, depending on traffic and product mix. Multiply that by a few locations, and you’ve got serious recurring income.

Barriers to Passive Vending—And How We Eliminate Them Many people hesitate to enter the vending business because of:

Uncertainty about where to place machines
Time needed for refills, maintenance, and troubleshooting
Difficulty choosing the right products
Lack of technical knowledge or setup experience

That’s where Feel Good Snacks comes in. We’re a done-for-you vending partner that makes passive vending not just possible—but profitable.
