Established in 1993, Excel Vending is Scotland’s leading independent vending and reverse vending solutions provider. Working with the world’s leading vending equipment manufacturers, we supply many of the country’s public health, higher education and private sector organisations.
We are committed to delivering the highest standards, so no surprise that Excel is the first independent vending company in Scotland to hold ISO45001, ISO14001, ISO9001 Safe Contractor and CHAS- Health & Safety Assessment Scheme.
Our growth and longevity are mainly due to our agility and willingness to embrace new trends and be early adopters of new technology. For example, we have championed Reverse Vending for several years by investing in and demonstrating the technology that enables the collection of used plastic bottles and cans for recycling.
We adapted quickly to changes in the workplace with our unattended retail solutions and the introduction of MicroMarkets while also advocating the use of locally-sourced fresh and healthy eating options.
We attain high customer satisfaction standards, which are critical to Excel’s growth. As a result, we are a multi-award winning business; Glasgow Chamber of Commerce, Excellence in Communication, Lanarkshire Business Award for Customer Service, and Best Regional Operator and Best Over All Vending Operator at the UK Vending Industry Awards for 2018/19 and April 2021 are just some of the accolades we have won. And we were delighted to win “Best Over All Vending Operator” again in June 2022.
We are very proud to be a Real Living Wage Employer and actively promote our Fairtrade products whenever possible.
