Coinadrink is proud to announce that we have been named a finalist in all six categories we entered at the 2026 Vending International Awards, widely known across the industry as “The Vendies”.
This recognition places us among the leading names in the sector once again, and reflects the continued dedication of our entire team, as well as the strength and innovation of our wider industry peers.
We would also like to extend our congratulations to all other finalists this year. Being recognised at this level is a significant achievement in itself, and it is great to see so many businesses continuing to drive standards forward across our industry.
This year, Coinadrink has been shortlisted for:
As a proud family-run company since 1962, our heritage continues to shape our values, culture, and long-standing customer relationships. Our Best Vending Project nomination recognises our investment in smarter, more responsive technology, including live data across our vending machine estate and the continued rollout of smart fridge solutions, helping us deliver a more personalised, efficient, and modern refreshment experience.
Meanwhile, Best Overall Operator brings together everything we stand for as a business, from cutting-edge equipment and bespoke workplace solutions to consistently high levels of customer service and a strong internal culture where our team can thrive.
The winners will be announced on Wednesday 3 June 2026 at the Grand Connaught Rooms in London.
We would love to add to our trophies from over the years, but regardless of the outcome, we are proud to be recognised alongside so many respected businesses within the industry.
The Vendies remain a celebration of excellence across vending and workplace refreshment, and we are delighted to be part of a sector that continues to innovate, evolve, and raise standards year after year.
