A PastryThank you very much for your interest in our vending service. We are a locally owned, family business that takes great pride in offering a high quality vending service. From our humble beginning in 1972, we have steadily grown to eleven vending routes servicing over one thousand vending machines. We believe that good service is a combination of high quality equipment, fresh product, fair prices and personal attention at each location. We are committed to regularly exploring new product and equipment trends, but resist the temptation of offering them before they are viable. Once tested and proven, we implement changes on a large scale. Examples of this include: disbursing $1 coins, accepting $5 bills in vending machines, glassfront cold drink machines, frozen machines, New England Coffee machines, vending wellness program, free-vend coupons.
DoughnutsMany large vending companies do not use new vending machines at even their best locations. Instead, they refurbish machines and use area treatments to improve the appearance of their old machines. Many vending companies have used Pepsi and Coke glassfront machines that look nice but were well known to be unreliable. We are different. We invest heavily in machinery and avoid attractive machines that do not work well. Our intention is to retain each account for many years. We use the very best new machines that accept large bills, have guaranteed sales and have reliable electronics. Once these basics are covered, we look at what other types of accessories we can justify at each location.
Nuts!We are increasing our variety while most of the vending industry is decreasing variety. Our competition tends to offer mostly large portions of everything. We continue to provide small and large sizes of chips, cookies, soda, and coffee. We have more food variety, more snack variety, high quality coffee and name brand pastries. We target each account’s product desires instead of using plan-o-gram systems that assume every account is the same. We price items individually instead of categorizing products that results in less variety since the overpriced items are not bought and thus eliminated. Our cold food items are ordered by our service person that is familiar with your account. Many vending companies have purchasing managers trying to maximize rebates without regard to individual concerns. We have developed a comprehensive wellness program that identifies and promotes the healthy products. Most vending companies have made a token effort if any at all.
Comparing Apples to OrangesGood machines, commissions and prices are only important if you have good service. Our references will provide unsolicited testimony of our high quality and superior service. New accounts will verify that we deliver what we promise and older accounts will confirm that we maintain a high quality vending service over time. Our company does many things very well, but in the end, we are only as good as our service people that take care of your account. Since they are paid by commission, it is to their benefit to offer the best service. When all tangible comparisons are done, any decision will be a leap of faith. Taking a chance on us will be very worthwhile.
