Carlos Mendoza runs FitZone Colombia, a gym chain with three locations in Colombia. His members are mostly young professionals and university students. Many of them take protein shakes after their workouts. Before buying our machines, Carlos sold bottled protein drinks from a fridge at the front desk. He told us the bottled drinks cost too much to buy in bulk. Stock ran out fast on busy days. Carlos found our protein shake maker machine through a Google search in late 2025.
He saw the protein shake machine on our website and sent us a message. We arranged a video call and showed him how the machine works. He liked the idea of making fresh shakes on demand instead of stocking bottles. He ordered three machines in January 2026—one for each gym location. The protein shake maker machine arrived in March 2026. Now each machine sells 50 to 70 shakes per day.
Customer Feedback
“I used to lose money on expired protein bottles. Now I make shakes fresh when members order them. The machine pays for itself faster than I expected. My members love that they can choose their own flavor and get a cold shake in under a minute.”
Parameters of Self-Service Protein Shake Vending Machine
Fresh mixing – The machine puts water in the cup first, then adds protein powder and mixes. No cross-contamination between drinks.
Self-cleaning – The stirring head cleans itself after every shake. Staff can also set a timer for a deeper clean.
Language options – We set the machines to Spanish for Carlos. The system also supports English, French, Arabic, and other languages.
No more expired stock – Carlos used to throw away bottles every month. Now he makes shakes on demand.
Low staff time – No one needs to stand behind a counter making shakes. The machine does all the work, staff just refill supplies once a day.
Member retention – Carlos said members stay longer after their workouts because they can grab a shake right away. Some members even come in just to buy a shake.
Yes. Colombia uses 110V, the same as the US. We set the machines to 110V before shipping.
What payment methods work best in Colombia?
Credit and debit cards are common. Cash and coins also work. QR code payments are growing but remain less common than card payments.
Can I use local protein powder?
Yes. Carlos buys his protein powder from a Colombian supplier. Any brand works as long as it’s in powder form. We also offer our own bulk powder at wholesale prices.
What about cleaning and health inspections?
The machine self-cleans after each cup. The inner walls have a Teflon coating. Protein residue doesn’t stick.
How long does shipping to Colombia take?
About 20–30 days by sea. We ship to any port in Colombia—Bogotá, Cartagena, or Barranquilla.
