Visitors remember it
Getting soaked on the way out is the part of the day people talk about. Handing them a way to stay dry is worth more than the umbrella costs.
The UK's largest umbrella vending operator
Rescue on rainy days.
A VendaBrolly machine hands your visitors an umbrella the moment the weather turns — and pays you a commission on every sale. We install it, stock it and maintain it. You keep the wall space earning.
Installed & earning
Why host one
A machine that earns its wall space
If people pass through your doors, a downpour is already costing them something. A brolly machine turns that moment into a service — and a second income line.
Income without outlay
On our loan option there is nothing to buy and nothing to insure. You take a fixed commission on every sale the machine makes.
Nothing for your team to do
We deliver, install, restock and service the machine, and we handle the cash. Your staff carry on as normal.
From first call to first payout
How it works
STEP 01
We visit your site
A short, no-obligation visit. We look at footfall, power and where a machine would sit best, then tell you honestly whether it will earn.
STEP 02
We install and stock it
Delivery, fitting and a full load of umbrellas are included. Most installs take under an hour and need no work from you.
STEP 03
We keep it running
Restocking, cash collection and any repairs are ours. If something goes wrong, you call us and we come out.
STEP 04
You get paid
You receive a fixed commission on every umbrella sold, with a clear statement showing what the machine took.
Two ways in
Host a machine, or own one
Most businesses start on the free loan. If you would rather run it yourself and keep every sale, we sell machines too.

Brolly Folly
The umbrella machine that made the papers. In the press
VendaBrolly has grown from a single machine to more than fifty owned sites and dozens more sold to independent operators — and picked up a bit of coverage along the way.
