For over thirty five years, we have provided a high quality snack vending service.  Our product line consists of products from dozens of national brand manufacturers.  We take advantage of the strengths of each product line.  We do not participate in promotions of off-brand products.  The overall product variety is very large and very well rounded.  Our service representatives choose their own products and do not have products forced upon them.  Our loyalty is to our customers to provide the quality and selection of products that is most desirable.  We have developed a great wellness program that identifies, presents and promotes the healthy products very well.

Cold Food

The quality of foodservice varies greatly between different vending companies even though most have very similar products available to them.  The main difference is who selects the items and why.  The key to our foodservice program is that our service people make the decisions.  They have both commissary and national brand products to choose from.  The national brand food takes more time to price and date, but frequently sells better due to the attractive packaging, familiar brand names, freshness and portion sizes.  Since our service people work on commission, they are motivated to sell as much as they can.  Your people benefit because they’re getting the items they want.  Large vending companies often have a purchasing manager order food.  This person has limited account familiarity and could have motives different than just supplying what the customers want.

Cold Drinks

Many different kinds of equipment are available to provide most any combination of cold drink flavors, containers and brands.  In general, the two styles of cold drink machines we use are traditional stack vendors and elevator glassfront vendors.  The traditional vendors offer pop cans, pop bottles and water bottles.  The glassfront vendors offer pop, water, juices, flavored waters, sports drinks, iced teas, iced coffees, energy drinks and other assorted drinks.  Each style of machine is available in Pepsi, Coke, 7Up and generic versions.  High volume flavors are best dispensed through the traditional vendors.  Glassfront machines are designed for providing a very large variety.  We are very selective to only use combinations of machines that will balance variety, dependability and capacity.  While glassfront machines are attractive and modern, they have drawbacks in both column capacities and warm drinks being available immediately after refilling.

Hot Beverages

Our coffee program is the best anywhere.  We have very unique resources since we are a New England Coffee distributor and a Selections Unlimited cappuccino distributor.  We use the high quality New England coffee, Selection cappuccinos and Dixie Perfect Touch cups in the machines.  These high quality cups are not commonly used in vending due to the high cost of the generic version.  We use this cup because it is well insulated and delivers reliably.  The deluxe machines have multiple cup sizes, multiple strengths and more choices than ever before.  The selections include coffee, 100% Columbian coffee, Full City Roast coffee, decaffeinated coffee, hot chocolate, French Vanilla, English Toffee, White Chocolate Caramel as well many others.  Since machines have a limited number of selections, we have a great program to switch flavors every few months.  The new flavor might be a seasonal product or just something different.  While the products are important, the routine cleaning and maintenance are the most important part of good hot beverage vending.  We train our people in proper cleaning procedures and rigidly enforce high standards.  The main product of these machines is service and nobody wants a half cup.
