Looking to buy concession stand equipment? Youll most definitely want to get a popcorn popper because what type of concession stand doesnt sell popcorn? Its cheap to purchase and you can mark the price way up, and its easy to make provided you have a commercial popcorn popper. If youve looked at commercial models, you have probably found that there are many available, but deciding which one you need can be somewhat of a challenge, especially if youve never bought one before.

Before buying a commercial popcorn popper, there are several things youll need to consider before settling on a specific model. Youll need to take into consideration the size and space requirements of your establishment as well as how much popcorn you think youll need.
