One reason for this maybe is how much profit slush and ice cream contributes to our customers bottom line. We've had more than a few customers who purchased, for example, a slush machine and with the amount of free slush syrup and stock they have received with their slush machine, have returned their entire investment in less than a month.
Another important factor to consider when determining a slush machine and syrup supplier, is the cost of equipment and syrups you decide to sell. The most successful stories we hear of are the sites that purchased premium quality. Slush machines come in all price brackets, from under £1000 for a cheap imported Chinese slush maker, to double that price for robust branded equipment, built to last and with dedicated support and engineer warranty. For the record, slush supplier margins are much higher selling a twin tank Chinese machine, we know that the costs of these machines are around $400 (or £300) so charging between £900-£1000 is a rewarding business for those suppliers. But do they offer back up, repair, service and telephone support and advise when the machines go wrong (and believe us, they do)? You probably know the answer to that already.
Our advice is avoid, avoid.
Buying a good slush machine from slushco will be the start of a very profitable addition yo your business if you choose wisely. In our view, the best slush machines brand is Sencotel.
