Are you looking to upgrade the break room solutions at your office in Scottsdale? Vending machines might be the perfect option for your company. With new advances and state of the art technology, modern vending machines have become more convenient than ever. A few of our favorite advances in the vending machine industry include cashless payment options, new eco-friendly practices, and pre-kitting technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To learn more about how these three improvements are enhancing the in-office vending machine experience<\/a>, keep reading below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cashless Payments<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Most people aren\u2019t carrying around cash these days. Credit and debit cards, as well as mobile apps like Apple Pay, have become the primary payment option. Therefore, vending machines with cashless payment options make transactions easy and convenient for employees during their lunch break. Scottsdale cashless technology<\/a> allows for people to pay with a debit and credit card reader or through mobile payment acceptors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cashless payments are not only convenient and easy. With mobile payment enabled, you\u2019ll also have more online reporting capabilities. So you\u2019ll be able to get a better idea of what kinds of food your employees are enjoying. Additionally, offering card or mobile payment options on vending machine items will increase snack sales at your office due to better accessibility and faster service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGreen\u201d Equipment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While the convenience of cashless payments is great, one of the best advances in modern vending machines is the implementation of eco-friendly practices. For instance, you can now save energy by choosing better lighting in your company vending machine. A typical vending machine uses 50 to 180 watts to continuously power the lights and ballasts. This not only wastes energy, but it can also rack up the office electric bill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead, look for T8 or LED light replacements to limit energy use. Some vending machines even allow for timers that turn off the machine\u2019s lights at night and on weekends. With these advanced eco-conscious options, your office will have the greenest Scottsdale break room solutions<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pre-Kitting Technology to Stock the Vending Machine<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The term \u201cpre-kitting\u201d simply refers to prepping vending deliveries in a warehouse based on machine inventory needs. There are newly developed technologies that can now automate and streamline this process while providing greater accuracy of deliveries. Pre-kitting allows for the vending machine driver to save time on deliveries and more efficiently stock your Scottsdale micro-market<\/a> or vending machine. It also eliminates the need to physically go to the machine, count what is needed, and then go back and forth to retrieve the proper snacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overall, modern vending machines are a convenient and efficient addition to your company break room. For more information on the best break room solutions in Scottsdale, head to Southwest Refreshments<\/a> or call us at 623.780.3036 now!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
