When members walk into your gym, they’re there to move with purpose. Whether they need a hydration top-up, an energy boost mid-session, or a protein hit post-workout, access to the right products at the right time builds a better member experience.
At The Vend Shop, we specialise in vending solutions built for the unique needs of gyms, studios, and wellness centres. From compact combos to cutting-edge smart fridges, our machines are designed to fit your space, brand, and business model.
Let’s take a look at three standout options in our gym-ready range.

Just unlock the fridge, take what you want, and walk away. The PicoCooler recognises what’s taken and charges accordingly.
Haha AI Vending Pro
A large smart fridge with built-in screen, computer vision checkout, and high-capacity shelving. The Haha AI Vending Pro is ideal for:
