Why can't the vending machine sell cigarettes? Can I use vending machines to sell cigarettes if I have a tobacco monopoly license? The answer is no; the main reason is to avoid underage buying and using cigarettes, which will seriously affect the physical and mental health of young people. Therefore, it is recommended that vending machines do not sell illegal items such as cigarettes and knives as much as possible, and can sell more profitable beverages and snacks. The current beverage profit is about 3 levels, so the sales of beverages are also very impressive.
