\"Micro-market<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The break rooms of yesterday didn\u2019t offer many services, including a micro-market. Instead, they often included a vending machine or two that served as a backup to eating at home. Today, however, things are different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many Louisville employees look to their break room vending services for snacks, meals, and great coffee. While today\u2019s vending equipment<\/a> are state-of-the-art machines and offer all types of products, from cold beverages to healthy snacks and fresh food, they still have limited space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, what\u2019s the solution when companies need more choices for their employees? The answer is a micro-market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A micro-market is like a convenience store. The main difference is that a micro-market is unattended, meaning that there isn\u2019t a cashier. Louisville employees visit the self-serve kiosk to make purchases.  Payment options vary from mobile payment apps to credit cards, cash, or a company account. Refreshment options can include healthy<\/a> and traditional snacks and beverages as well as freshly prepared food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s look at three reasons why a micro-market might be the best choice for your break room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s Open 24\/7.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Do you have employees that work the second or third shifts? Working late or overnight hours makes it difficult to find an open store or restaurant to grab a snack or meal. With fewer options available, employees will have to drive or walk farther away from work to find something. A break room micro-market removes both of those obstacles and gives employees a place to relax during their breaks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Micro-Markets Has More Space.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Vending machines have limited space. That\u2019s not necessarily negative, but it is a natural constraint of the size of the machine. Micro-markets typically have a bigger footprint and can be customized to offer a wider selection of products, such as wraps, sandwiches, yogurt, cheese, and fresh fruit. A menu with more options will help employees avoid becoming bored with their choices and encourage them to stay on-site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You Can Pick It Up.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Employees can’t pick up or touch products before buying them. Not being able to read a nutrition or ingredient label before making a purchase may be a problem for those keeping an eye on how many calories they eat or those who have a food allergy or intolerance. The open shelves, coolers, and storage racks in a micro-market mean your Louisville employees can easily reach in and grab an item.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
