Like any other industry, there are certain procedures involved with getting office vending services. It's not always a quick and simple process. It takes time to qualify a location, order the vending machine, then install it. So, if you're wanting to get a Coke or Pepsi vending machine for your business, here's how the process works.
Vending services are a great way to enhance your business. Providing beverages and snacks can go a long way with customers and employees, especially where there is no access to nearby stores or food courts. If you're thinking about getting vending machines for your office, you're probably wondering how much they cost to either rent or purchase.
In a previous blog post about credit card readers for vending machines, we discussed some of the issues of getting a device for vending equipment, mainly the cost associated with them. But a recent article by Vending Market Watch indicated that the fees cellular companies charge might be coming down in 2017.

Christmas is less than two weeks away. While most of us are winding down our Christmas shopping to get ready for the holiday, there's one person who's just gearing up for the big day--Santa Claus.
The sheer mention of his name gives everyone a good feeling that radiates throughout towns and cities around the world. It also conjures up images of the jolly old man in a red coat and pants with a long, white beard.
But it wasn't always that way.
Some early depctions of Santa show a tall and skinny man, or even a scary looking elf. It wasn't until the early 1930's that the the Santa we all have come to know and love was created.
It all began with Coca-Cola's 1931 holiday advertising campaign called "Thirst Knows No Season." The advertising executive working with the company wanted to depict a realistic and symbolic Santa, one that was wholesome and charming.
Enter Michigan-born artist Haddon Sundblom.
Sundblom was commissioned by Coca-Cola to create the ideal Santa. And did he ever.
The Santa Claus he created with oil paints were a huge hit and featured in magazines like The Saturday Evening Post, The New Yorker, Ladies Home Journal, and others. It had such an enormous impact that Coca-Cola commissioned Sundblom to paint Santa Claus for their ads up through 1964.
Coca-Cola is one of the world's most recognizable brands and the leading beverage company for non-alcoholic drinks. It's not surprising that 70% of soda vending machines we manage are Coke machines.

The employee break room is an integral part of the modern workplace. Employees spend plenty of their waking hours in the office, and they need a place to go where they can clear their minds for a few moments after a stressful meeting or phone call.
According to a 2014 survey by Staples, 86% of employees feel that taking breaks throughout the workday improves their productivity. The same survey found that 59% suggested that regular breaks increased work satisfaction. Why not provide an environment for your employees that helps foster productivity and happiness?
We've all been there before. Hungry, thirsty, and in a rush to get back to work or class. There's no time for a full meal, so you settle for a soda and snack from the vending machines in your office or break room. You put some money into the machine, make your selection, and nothing happens.
