19 Vending Machines These are open 24 hours a day and are situated in public areas like hospitals and universities. They have a variety of snacks and drinks.

20 Catalogue Shops A catalogue shop publishes a detailed catalogue with all the products for sale. If customers are interested in the product they can purchase through a shop or order and have the item delivered.
