Shanghai Water Expo Concludes Successfully | GS Vending Booth Draws Crowds, “Water + Beverage” New Trend Sparks On-Site Enthusiasm

Time : 2026-06-11 Hits : 0

June 9–11, 2026 – The 18th Shanghai International Water Exhibition (Watertech China 2026) came to a successful close at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Hongqiao). Wuhan Gao Sheng Wei Ye Technology Co., Ltd. (GS Vending) made its cross‑industry debut at the show, and our booth remained highly popular throughout the three days. We received a steady stream of inquiries and secured orders from multiple countries.

The Booth Was “Always Full” for Three Days

Throughout the exhibition, booth 2.1H726 was constantly busy. Our team kept brewing coffee, fruit tea, and sparkling drinks, while explaining machine functions, case studies, and cooperation models to visitors.

One visitor joked: “Your booth is even livelier than the water purifier booth next door.”

In fact, many water equipment operators have long been interested in coffee and beverage vending machines but lacked hands‑on experience. Our colleagues answered every question on the spot – covering machine stability, profit margins, and daily maintenance – helping customers overcome their concerns. It became clear to us that more and more operators who already have ready‑to‑use locations are realizing that adding a smart beverage machine alongside their water business could be a promising new direction.

Which Models Drew the Most Attention? JK89 Led the Pack, with Three Models Each Winning Their Own Fans

  • JK89 All‑in‑One Smart Beverage Machine – The undisputed “star of the booth.” This single machine can make freshly ground coffee, freshly brewed tea, fruit tea, and sparkling specials. It comes with an ice maker, automatic cup drop, lid drop, and lid press. Many customers said directly after the demo: “This is exactly what I need – one machine that does the work of an entire store.”

  • JK88 Dual‑Temperature Coffee Vending Machine – The top choice for schools, communities, and retail spaces. With automatic lid pressing and extremely simple operation, one customer commented: “You could put this in a dormitory building – students can use it without any training.”

  • JK86 Coffee Vending Machine with Ice Maker – A crowd favorite for outdoor and southern markets. Built‑in ice maker and strong weather resistance attracted operators from parks, clubs, self‑service laundromats, and other locations.

In addition, the JK91 protein shake vending machine caught the attention of many overseas buyers, who came specifically to discuss gym‑focused opportunities.

What Did We Learn from This Water Expo?

A clear signal has emerged: the second growth engine for water points has arrived. Whether it is campus hot water BOT projects, park water stations, community water vending machines, or office water purifier leasing, operators are no longer satisfied with the low‑margin “selling water” business. They already have locations and foot traffic – they are only missing a smart beverage machine that can be added at low cost and generate higher average transaction value.

GS Vending’s smart beverage machines fill that gap perfectly. Factory‑direct supply, one‑stop consumables sourcing, and full‑process service from site selection to after‑sales – we help our customers turn “quenching thirst” into “enjoying a drink,” and convert existing resources into incremental revenue.

The Expo Has Ended, but Our Collaboration Is Just Beginning

Thank you to every old and new friend who visited our booth. Your interest, your tastings, and your in‑depth conversations are the greatest recognition GS Vending could ask for.

In the coming days, we will invite interested customers to visit our Wuhan factory for further discussions and refine implementation plans.
