Condom Vending Machines at Commonwealth Games

Condom vending machines are likely to be installed in various places around the Commonwealth Games Village in New Delhi, India. The National AIDS Control Organisation (NACO) is responsible for the plans, and intends to offer free condoms in an effort to reduce the risk of a potential influx in the spread of HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases and infections during the fortnight of the competitions.

The plans result from the vast numbers of tourists expected to be brought to the area by the Commonwealth Games. Free condoms are expected to be handed out to athletes competing in the games, as well as to support and administrative staff who will be located at the site.

For others, condoms will be available free of charge from chosen venues around the Games village, and also for a low cost from condom vending machines which are to be installed at selected locations around the village and stadia. About 200 condom machines are expected to be installed in the area – the campaign is part of a larger government initiative to distribute condoms over the country, in continued attempts to reduce the impact and spread of HIV/AIDS.

Looking to a Safe Future with Condom Vending Machines

Fifty years ago, people knew little about the benefits of condoms and birth control was something that not many people invested in. Today, the condom industry is booming and birth control comes in various forms.

What does that tell you? It means that sex is an important issue and no-one wants unwanted pregnancies or nasty diseases. Sex is no longer the taboo subject it once was and good practice with regards to sexual health is now more commonplace than ever. This is a trend that may intensify in the future as the world’s population continues to rapidly increase and sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and infections (STIs) affect more and more people. This shift to a more relaxed attitude has resulted in an increase in the frequency and likelihood of promiscuous behaviour.

Early identification of these trends may help you take advantage and maximise your profit with the use of condom vending machines. For the public sector, however, condom vending machines can be seen as an essential service, without the need to generate profit (i.e. ensuring good sexual health practice at very low cost).

Condom Vending

Condom vending can be a profitable business; washroom machines account for a significant amount of sales from vending machines. In addition to this, some of the best profit margins can be found with condom machine products. Consumables such as herbal sexual enhancers have seen a sharp increase in popularity recently, but of course, this type of product will sell better in some places than others (clubs vs. offices, for instance).

Possibly the most important factor for maximising sales from condom vending machines is to target your key demographic effectively with the right products.

Sanitary items and condoms will often sell in most places and can be a good choice. However, washroom machines can be fairly versatile. If products are properly packaged and fit within the maximum vend dimensions, many different items can be sold from condom vending machines to better target your audience. Examples in the past have included: swimming equipment, disposable shoes, and adult novelty toys.
