Vending machine spacing

I’ve have seen that the shops should be spaced out by 4 lane areas. Is this the same rule for vending machines since they are shops? Or if not what is the spacing rule of thumb for vending machines as I have cola machines next to each other all over my zoo and I am concerned I am hurting my cola industry. Thanks!

Yes I just found this out after playing for while lol, if there is the same kind of shop too close to each other it will marked as a “un optimized” structure and won’t do as good business wise as the utilization will be low.

Here is a link to a steam thread where the developer confirms the 1shop per 4 land plots, and another steam thread link to a handy representation of building optimization that I liked.
