I have recently just bought a fruit machine and applied for my operating licence but I'm not sure how to go about advertising it to other establishments .

You got an operating licence BEFORE looking at this situation?

if your gonna site fruits you need more than fruits, you need pool tables, quizzers, and most of all Digital Jukeboxes as you need to replace the lot.

Gamestec wont be happy with their pool table and your fruit machine in the same pub.


Some pubs don't have them for a reason

Fruit takes £50 a week for em but a table would take an easy £10-£100 a night if busy.

May have had problems in the past with fruits.

fruits attract a different client to the establishment.

dont even think about it unless you have very deep pockets.if you site an up to date 70 pound machine and it has a good run for the players can you afford to keep on refloating and can you repair it if it breaks down?

forget siting in pubs,
if you are lucky enough to find a free trade pub willing to talk to you, they would want the full monty and probably you to pay the machine license for a year upfront.
