At 24, Micah Stanley is a long way from the nights he spent working as a high school janitor. He now says his vending-machine business generates as much as $75,000 a month in profit.
Three years after working nights at a Nebraska high school, he now drives a 2019 Lamborghini Urus around Cleveland and says he operates roughly 150 machines across three states. According to Stanley, the business began by placing machines stocked with vape products, including flavoured products, and nicotine pouches, in bars and nightclubs. He has since expanded the operation to sell products such as Pokémon cards and phone chargers.
