Considerations for Nacho and Popcorn equipment
Nacho Equipment
Why purchase Nacho Chip and Cheese equipment?
Chip merchandisers display fresh nacho chips while cheese dispensers provide the hot cheese sauce. Together they make for profit increasing impulse purchases at minimal cost and effort.
Important Considerations
The capacity of the merchandiser must be considered as well as the available counter space. Choose a machine that both fits the space and customer demand.
Space considerations
Available counter space must be calculated before selecting a popcorn machine. Popcorn carts provide the option of keeping counter space clear while still adding popcorn to the concession line of products.
What size Popcorn Machine is ideal?
The size of popcorn popper depends on the type of business. High volume businesses such as stadiums and theatres need poppers that produce, at minimum, 240 one ounce servings per hour.
Poppers that produce between 115 and 170 one ounce servings per hour are best suited for medium volume businesses like store concession stands, bars and convenience stores.
Butter Dispensers
Every concession station should consider putting a butter dispenser behind the counter or beside the popcorn popper and condiment station. Butter dispensers will keep the butter warm and allow for convenient self-service.
