Should You Buy A Used Frozen Yogurt Machine?

If you’re starting your own business chances are you’re looking for ways to cut costs without sacrificing your customer’s wants and needs. One great way to do this is to buy a used frozen yogurt machine as opposed to a new one.

Here are some tips on how to shop for a used froyo machine to ensure you get high quality at a fraction of the price.

Shop Local

If at all possible, look for machines in your local area — this way you can go check them out for yourself and see how they run. Having said this, depending on where you live, you may find a lot or a few units for sale. If you live in or near a large metro area, chances are you’ll have a nice selection right out your back door. If you live in a smaller, more rural area, you may have to look for a machine that’s farther from you, even in another state. Which is fine, as long as you ask for the full history of the machine to get an idea if the unit is what you’re looking for. Like buying a used car, you’ll want to know how many owners the machine has had,  has it needed any major repairs, and has it been properly maintained?

You should also ask to see photos — a lot of photos — to get a good idea of any wear and tear to the unit. Any honest seller should have no problem providing photos for you and even video if you ask. With video, you can see the machine in action.

Other Places to Find Used Frozen Yogurt Machines

Some other places you can find used froyo machines are on auction sites like eBay or community listing sites like Craigslist and Kiijii.
