On game day, long merch lines are a familiar sight at the stadium, but Vidir Solutions tackles long wait times with Merchandise Vending Machines that offer faster, secure purchases that keep fans in the action. At this vending machine, sports fans can quickly pick up items like hats and jerseys on the concourse, since the system automatically stores items up to 30 feet off the ground and delivers purchased goods to customers in as little as 30 seconds.
Vidir Solutions recently launched a Merchandise Vending Machine at the Winnipeg Blue Bombers' home opener on June 12th—the first of its kind to be found at a North American sporting event—improving operations by automating the sales process, maximizing available space, and providing a peek at the future of fan engagement.
