Empower Vending
A CSAAC Social Enterprise Creating Opportunities Through Small Business Ownership
Empower Vending machines are owned and operated by CSAAC. All proceeds from the machines go to CSAAC Operations for enhancements throughout the organization.
CSAAC has successfully launched a new social enterprise business for individuals in the supported employment program who are interested in operating a vending machine business. Starting with a pilot program at our headquarters office and the Brookeville School Campus a few years back, Empower Vending has grown to over 35+ locations with great success!
Machines are checked and stocked several times a week—so there are never empty machines!
This makes Empower Vending different than any other vending company around.
Sodas and snacks are purchased through wholesale, and the individuals inventory and stock the machines themselves! The program now offers a brokerage opportunity to operate vending machines in local businesses throughout the community, giving individuals their own small business.
