AVT Customer Featured On Front Page of Yahoo News For New Caviar Vending Machine
Unique system makes worldwide news
CORONA, Calif., Dec. 3, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- AVT, Inc. (Ticker: AVTC) (www.autoretail.com) announced that one of their customers is making headlines throughout the world for a system AVT built to sell caviar through a vending machine. The unique "caviar boutiques" are now in three upscale malls in and around Beverly Hills, California, and have been featured on the front page of Yahoo News, and well as newspapers, television and radio stations, and online sites throughout the world.
The caviar vending machines were custom designed for AVT's customer by AVT's group of in-house artists, software programmers and fabricators, and offer customers a large selection of fine caviar as well as truffles, escargot, bottarga, blinis, oils, Mother of Pearl plates and spoons, gift boxes and gourmet salts. Items range in price from $50.00 to $500.00.
"These systems showcase how an automated, self-service system is the best way for a business owner or retailer to expand distribution and reach more customers with a small investment and a rapid ROI," according to Shannon Illingworth, founder and chairman of AVT. "While the cost of opening a typical store in a mall is cost-prohibitive, our custom designed automated stores can reach the same consumer at a small fraction of the price."
AVT has become recognized as a leader in helping entrepreneurs launch new, successful businesses. From HUMAN Healthy Vending – recently named by Forbes Magazine as one of America's most promising companies, to the new automated Marley coffee stores, to self-service systems that dispense health related items ranging from dental care to prescription medicine – AVT is fueling economic growth and entrepreneurial success.
"For a fraction of the cost of starting a typical business or franchise, you can be in business with an automated store," Illingworth stated. "Our systems help people become their own boss and make a great income," he added. "And if you have an existing business, automated retailing allows you to increase distribution, enhance brand awareness, and sell more products to more people – quickly, easily and cost-effectively."
While some may call it high-tech vending, it is really much more, Illingworth commented. AVT's patented systems provide built-in touchscreens, cashless payment centers, remote wireless management, and high definition screens for advertising and promotional messages.
"Entrepreneurs and retailers can now open an automated store for less than $10,000 – and sell virtually anything they want, anywhere they want, 24-hours a day." he stated.
