When it comes to designing packages for consumer products, manufacturers oftentimes don't consider the difficulties in dispensing the product from a vending machine, according to Mike Weisser, president and CEO of SandenVendo America.

Weisser shared his insights about vending machines in a recent interview with MarketScale, a digital content news source.

Regarding package design, Weisser said packages such as square glass bottles and tetra pak boxes are particularly hard to design for glassfront vending machines.

Key consumer trends in vending include a demand for healthier products and wider product variety, Weisser said.
