Mobile Retail Stores Take Off

These custom-made mobile retail stores are really taking off.

These custom-made mobile retail stores are really taking off.

MOBILE, Ala. (Wireless Flash - FlashNews) – In today’s fast-moving market, retail stores on wheels are all the rage.

At least that’s what Annette Antoine Nolan, founder of VendaCarts, believes.

VendaCarts are custom designed, mobile retail stores equipped with up to nine built-in vending machines that are available for sale to enterprising Average Joes and companies.

Nolan says VendaCarts make it possible to sell in “untapped marketplaces,” like areas in malls that are far from concession stands and at stadium parking lots, making it “the most opportunistic mobile retail store ever conceived.”

Since any VendaCart can be custom built, there are unlimited types of businesses that people could venture into.

For example, if someone wants a food stand they can have a microwave and soda fountain added to their cart.

Nolan explains that in this economy starting up a business the traditional way is a major gamble, but VendaCarts are a cheaper, safer alternative.
