US photo booth manufacturer Apple Industries is experiencing great success in Europe and the Middle East with its Magazine Me and Mini models.
According to the company’s sales director Mel LaForce, "we recently had to play catch-up and ship a bunch of Magazine Me photo booths to the Middle East after their introduction at the DEAL Expo (in April) and now our distributor in the UK (Namco Europe) is about to receive yet more container shipments following heightened interest in our product."
Magazine Me is a single purpose photo booth that puts people’s faces on different parody magazine covers. It’s unique in that its large print format allows for higher vend pricing. Revenue reports are strong at family fun centres, amusement parks, malls and tourist areas. The Magazine Me Mini, because of its smaller footprint, is now beginning to surface in street locations where operators are also enjoying the initial results of higher vend pricing.
