The concept of vending machines started back in the ancient times when a coin was dropped in exchange for holy water. Vending machines or simply called as vendo machines have then become a necessity for commercial or industrial purposes. Instead of recruiting and hiring a cashier to do the computation and payment of goods or products, the vendo machine will readily do it efficiently and easily with just simple presses and turning of a certain knob, the service that a cashier can do, the vendo machine has done for you. In commercial setting, the vendo machine is used to dispense food, beverages and other products while in the industrial setting, a personal protective equipment or PPE vending machines is used to dispense materials needed by workers and employees without the need for

a separate personnel to do the computation and payment.

The advantages of having PPE vending machines in the industrial setting or in an office outweigh its disadvantages. Mainly because the machine is built for the ease and comfort of the workers or the building occupants. One of the major advantages is the ability of the machine to work and function on its own, without needing the help of a cashier or another person except for replacing the stocks that is. These vendo machines also keep track of the products being dispensed by the people because it can monitor and audit the products that are coming in and out of the machine. In that way, the company that owns the machine or the owner is assured that their products sell in an effective way and that it is earning quite positively. This monitoring ability of the vending machines ensures that there will always be a number of available stocks in the machine and that the people can readily avail of these products without the fear of running out of stock. The owner has then full accountability of the products being purchased by the building occupants and workers.

Another advantage of these vending machines is its security, making it difficult for intentions of theft and reduces wastage.
