Vendo 721 Blue Refresh Soda Vending Machine
The Vendo 721 Blue Refresh soda vending machine is a full-size beverage merchandiser built on SandenVendo’s V21 platform, combining a bold blue graphic front with the Live Display refrigeration system that keeps drinks cold while drawing less energy than older stack-vend coolers. It is engineered for operators who want one machine that can sell 12 oz cans, 16 oz and 20 oz bottles, and larger 24 oz containers from the same stack without swapping parts.
With 10 individually priced selections and a high-capacity cabinet, the 721 is a serious full-size commercial machine rather than a countertop unit. It vends flexibly and shimlessly, so an operator can dial in a drink lineup that matches the location and reconfigure it later without buying conversion kits. That flexibility, paired with a full-function MDB controller and credit-card-reader-ready electronics, is why the 721 remains one of the most placed drink machines in North America.

Key features of the Vendo 721
- Live Display refrigeration — SandenVendo’s cooling system holds product temperature efficiently and meets or exceeds DOE and EPA energy requirements.
- Flexible shimless vending — the same stacks handle cans, cartons, and bottles up to 24 oz, so a route driver can change the drink mix at any stop without hardware.
- 10-selection merchandising — enough breadth to run colas, energy drinks, water, and juice side by side and price each line individually.
- MDB controller with DEX/UCS — open payment architecture accepts a coin mechanism, bill validator, and a plug-in credit/debit card reader, and supports wireless telemetry for cashless and remote monitoring.
- Energy management — LED lighting, a real-time clock, and lighting/refrigeration controls that can dim or cycle the machine during off-hours.
About SandenVendo (Vendo)
Vendo is one of the oldest names in the vending industry, tracing back to the coin-operated coolers of the 1930s and now operating as SandenVendo America under the global Sanden group. The company is a recognized manufacturer of beverage vending equipment worldwide, and the V21 / 721 platform is its flagship flexible can-and-bottle machine. You can review the manufacturer and its product line at SandenVendo America.
Where the Vendo 721 earns
A 10-selection, 680-can machine is built for locations with steady beverage traffic: manufacturing plants and warehouses, office breakrooms, gyms and rec centers, schools and universities, hospitals, hotels, laundromats, and car washes. The deep cabinet means fewer service trips — you typically fill several hundred drinks per visit instead of running back to a small machine. Because vend flexibility and pricing are set per selection, the 721 also suits accounts where the customer wants a specific drink lineup or premium bottled water alongside standard cans.
As a rule of thumb, the more foot traffic and the longer the dwell time at a location, the better a full-size drink machine like this performs, and a single well-placed 721 can anchor an entire beverage account. Operators typically pair it with a snack or combo machine to capture both drink and food sales in the same footprint.

How many selections does the Vendo 721 have?
Ten individually priced selections, so you can run up to ten different beverages and set a price for each.
How many drinks does it hold?
Up to roughly 680 twelve-ounce cans, or about 300 twenty-ounce bottles, depending on how the flexible stacks are configured.
Can it take credit cards or a Nayax reader?

A standard 115 VAC, 60 Hz outlet rated for about 12 amps — no special wiring required.
Will it fit through a standard door?
The cabinet is 39.5″ wide and 72″ tall; measure your doorway, but most standard 36″ commercial and double-leaf doors accommodate it. It ships via curbside freight, so plan for moving it into final position on site.
