I was looking for a Franchise opportunity. When I saw Redbull, I was excited because I knew Redbull was a leading product in the energy drink sector. CCA was in charge of disrtibuting franchises for Redbull in my area. I invested $27,000.00 to buy 5 vending machines & Redbull product to start my business.
I recieved my machines & product. Thats when I began to have problems. I had trouble locating my machines, contacting CCA, or getting any help that was promised by them, to promote my business. It has been 2 years, I have placed 3 of 5 machines and have made about $1000.00 in profit. That is $500.00 a year. So I should recoup my investment in about 54 years! I was lead to believe this was a lucrative business and that I would be supported and lead to success by CCA & Redbull. Instead, I have lost money. CCA is no longer supporting Redbull, or me, as was promised. I was mislead, dropped by CCA and Redbull. I have lost a substantial amount of money & time because of this, what I believe to be a scam, by CCA and Redbull.
