How to Make Money in Guyana with a Beverage Backpack Dispenser
In today’s fast-paced world, convenience is king — and nothing says convenience like a portable beverage backpack dispenser. This wearable vending system can carry and serve hot or cold drinks, making it a brilliant opportunity for entrepreneurs in Guyana to generate income with low overhead. Whether you’re selling hot coffee in the morning or cold drinks in the afternoon heat, this tool turns you into a mobile beverage business. Here are practical and creative ways you can make serious money with it.
💼 1. Rush Hour Coffee Sales
Where: Busy intersections, bus parks, ferry terminals, or roadside stalls.
When: Early morning between 5:30 AM and 8:00 AM.
What to Sell: Hot coffee, tea, Milo, cocoa, or even porridge.
Many people in Guyana leave home early and don’t have time for breakfast. With a backpack dispenser, you can walk through traffic or set up just outside workplaces and offer a hot beverage on the go. Offer a combo with a biscuit or small bun for more profits.
🥵 2. Cold Drinks in Traffic Jams
Where: Busy roads in Georgetown, especially during midday traffic or on the East Bank/East Coast roads.
When: Late mornings to mid-afternoon.
What to Sell: Cold coconut water, soft drinks, fresh fruit juice, lemonade, or iced tea.
The Guyanese heat can be brutal. With a cold beverage dispenser, you can move between cars offering refreshments without needing a storefront. You’ll have a captive audience of drivers who are tired, hot, and thirsty.
🎉 3. Party and Event Beverage Sales
Where: Private parties, weddings, school fairs, concerts, and Mashramani celebrations.
When: Evenings, weekends, or special holidays.
What to Sell: Rum punch, cocktails, mocktails, juice, or beer (depending on event rules).
A major complaint at Guyanese parties is the slow service at the bar. With a backpack beverage dispenser, you or your staff can walk around and serve drinks directly to guests — no waiting, no long lines. This boosts customer satisfaction and increases your earning potential through speed and mobility.
Pro Tip: Brand your team with matching shirts and caps, and offer drink tokens for pre-paid convenience.
🏟️ 4. Sporting Events & Public Gatherings
Where: Cricket matches, football fields, horse racing, or regattas.
When: Game days and national holidays.
What to Sell: Cold drinks, energy drinks, or local favorites like mauby and ginger beer.
Sporting events draw large crowds, and spectators don’t want to leave their spots. Your backpack becomes a mobile bar that delivers drinks where the people are.
🏫 5. School Pick-Up Areas (Non-Caffeinated)
Where: Outside primary or secondary schools.
When: After school, between 2:00 PM – 3:30 PM.
What to Sell: Fruit juice, slushies, or flavored water.
Target parents waiting in cars or children who want a refreshing drink after class. Just make sure to use child-safe, non-caffeinated options and get necessary approvals.

- Carnival & Festival Booths: Rent out your dispensers to other vendors.
