Because healthy options can boost productivity, they will be great for Seattle office pantry service customers too. Employers can offer them free in the break room as a thank you to staff. Plus, it will keep workers full of energy for the day.

Seattle Break Time | Kent Micro-Markets | Tacoma Vending Service

Boost Employees’ Break Time with a Seattle, Kent, & Tacoma Micro-Market

December 15, 2023December 15, 2023 by Katie Waxman

Break time during the workday is important. It benefits both employees and businesses. That is because taking breaks helps employees focus better. Thus, it improves productivity. It also gives employees a chance to step away from their desks, so they can relax and refocus. Therefore, they’ll feel recharged. Breaks also support workplace wellbeing. They reduce stress and burnout. Taking breaks reduces body aches. You can stretch your legs and take a quick walk.

However, many employees skip taking breaks. They may feel too busy. Or, they might feel guilty. That’s why businesses must encourage employees to take breaks. How? With a Seattle micro-market!

Keep reading to learn how micro-markets boost break time.

Delicious and Nutritious Break Time Food

Employees might not take breaks even though they’re hungry. Why? They might feel they’ll waste time driving to the store. A micro-market can solve this problem. That’s because employees can buy quality foods on-site. They can also get healthy snacks. For instance, they can buy salads, wraps, or sandwiches. Or, employees can stock up on fresh fruits and nuts. Additionally, they can satisfy their sweet tooth and munchies because micro-markets have many of the same candy and snacks as a Kent vending machine.

Micro-markets help employees make smart, healthy choices. They can read ingredient labels and inspect items before buying them.

The best thing about a micro-market is that your team can skip driving to the store. They’ll also avoid long checkout lines. Micro-markets have self-checkout kiosks instead. Pay with cash, cards, or your mobile wallet. It’s easy and convenient!

Quench Thirst Quickly and Easily

Staying hydrated at work is important. It keeps you alert. Plus, you’ll avoid headaches and tiredness. Micro-markets help Tacoma employees stay hydrated. They can buy their favorite beverages, including vending machine drinks. There are plenty to choose from. For example, buy brand-name drinks, such as your favorite sodas. Want healthier choices? Buy vitamin water or juice.

Treat Your Team to Subsidized Options

Rewarding your team improves their satisfaction. It also makes their break time feel extra special. You can do this with a subsidized micro-market. This allows businesses to cover some or all of the cost. Or, you can pay for certain products. Add money to employees’ micro-market accounts. Free food is a great way to celebrate special events. It can also make long meetings more exciting.

Want to try another option? Ask Vista Vending about our Kent office pantry services. We’ll set one up in your break room. This is a space where employees can help themselves to free snacks. It’s sure to please!

Don’t forget about the most important free refreshment of all: coffee! An office coffee service is a big hit. You might want to get a better brewer. Ask us about our Tacoma single-cup brewers where the coffee always takes fresh. Plus, employees can customize their drinks. They’ll feel like they’re in a café!

Seattle Coffee Trends | Kent Holiday Flavors | Tacoma Break Room Ideas

Seasonal Flavors for Your Seattle Office Coffee: Embrace the Festive Spirit

November 15, 2023 by Katie Waxman

The chill in the air, the hint of holidays around the corner – it’s that time of the year to infuse your Seattle, Kent, and Tacoma office break room with the warmth of seasonal flavors. It can be a great way to add some fun to the office. So, let’s dive into how you can spruce up your office coffee service with tasty flavors that everyone will love.

Flavored Coffees

As the seasons change, why not let your Seattle office coffee do the same? Say goodbye to the ordinary and hello to a delicious world of flavored coffees. Whether it’s rich hazelnut or the comfort of pumpkin spice, these flavors can add a touch of fun to your team’s daily coffee routine.

But why stop at just one flavor? Elevate your coffee game with a single-cup brewer. This allows your team to savor an array of choices using just one coffee machine. The coffee comes in classic blends and yummy seasonal twists. It’s the perfect way to cater to different tastes.

Creamer Flavors

The path doesn’t end at the coffee itself. Enhance your office coffee service by having a variety of creamers. Think beyond regular creamer and invite tasty options with things like pumpkin spice, vanilla, and hazelnut creamers. These offer a world of inviting flavors, right in your break room.

For those who want healthy choices, a dairy-free creamer alternative is a great option. Not only does it work for different dietary needs, but it also supports the well-being of your employees. And speaking of healthy choices, don’t forget that our Kent vending machines can be healthy too. They can have a range of dairy-free and plant-based drinks and snacks, too!

A Variety of Teas

While coffee takes the spotlight, don’t forget about the magic of tea. A hot cup of tea can be delightful on cold days, offering both warmth and a gentle boost. Apple spice, cinnamon, and cranberry teas capture the essence of the season, making each sip a journey through fall’s splendid flavors.

In addition, you can support Tacoma employee well-being with immune-boosting tea options. Herbal blends featuring turmeric or vitamin C can provide that extra layer of care, especially during flu seasons.

By infusing your office coffee service with a blend of seasonal flavors, you’re not just offering drinks — you’re creating a sense of togetherness, providing diverse tastes, and supporting your team’s health. So go ahead, let the flavors of the season transform your workplace.

Seattle Online Ordering | Tacoma Office Coffee Supplies | Kent Break Room

Online Ordering Gets Rave Reviews in Seattle, Tacoma and Kent

October 30, 2023October 30, 2023 by Katie Waxman

In March 2023, Vista Vending launched a new online ordering platform. It was designed to make getting refreshments and break room supplies quick and easy. It lets clients log on to our website to order the office pantry, office coffee, or hotel pantry items they want.

After only a few months, it’s clear customers love the online ordering platform. The ease of use, great features, and accuracy impress facility and office managers alike.

Easy Online Ordering

Now you can find all the refreshments and break room essentials you need with the click of a button. For example, if you are a Seattle office coffee service customer, you can go to our website and order whatever you need. We offer coffee, cups, creamer, sugar, flavors, and more. It’s all there, with photos to show exactly what you are getting.

It’s just as easy for other types of customers as well. Perhaps you use our Tacoma hotel pantry service. The platform lets you get individual items. No more ordering in bulk! That saves you from needing to store snacks, beverages, and other products when you don’t have extra space.

Useful Features

Besides being simple to use, the online ordering system has features clients love. For example, our Kent office pantry service clients can view items by certain filters. See “best selling products” to find what’s trendy. Or view items by the label “featured products” which may have special pricing or be seasonal.

Another useful option is shopping by “category.” Let’s say you’re a Seattle vending customer that also has our bean-to-cup coffee service. You can search the whole bean coffee category for the current choices.

Probably the best part of the online ordering platform is the shopping list. Create one the first time and then add or subtract items each time you log in. That means no more starting your order from scratch each time!

Online Ordering Lessens Errors

In the past, clients had to call or email in their orders. This could result in human error. But now, the system keeps all orders organized and makes restocking easier and more accurate.

Save Time and Hassle With Online Ordering Through Vista Vending

Vista Vending strives to offer our clients the best break room solutions. That’s why we added online ordering. It provides Seattle office pantry, Tacoma office coffee, or even Kent hotel pantry service clients a better experience.

The morning rush and the pressure of finding a meal before work can lead to stress. By providing breakfast in the workplace, you alleviate this stressor. Employees can then start their day in a more relaxed and focused manner. Discover why it’s so important to offer a healthy breakfast and how to bring excellent options to your Seattle break room.

The Importance of a Healthy Breakfast

There’s a reason people say breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Breakfast is the meal that gives Seattle employees the energy boost they need to start the day. A nutritious breakfast provides the essential nutrients and calories needed to kickstart the day with energy and vitality.

A healthy breakfast is part of an overall healthy diet. It can even help you maintain a healthy weight. Starting the day off with a nutritious meal reduces the likelihood of overeating later in the day.

Plus, a nutritious breakfast can help you take care of your heart. Begin your day with heart-healthy foods like whole grains, fruits, and nuts. These foods promote cardiovascular well-being.

Bringing healthy breakfast options to the break room means better well-being for your employees. There are many ways to include tasty, nutritious breakfast foods ranging from a Tukwila micro-market to an office pantry service or even a fresh food vending machine.

Healthy Breakfast Options for Your Seattle Break Room

What are some excellent nutritious breakfast options to include in your break room?

Egg Sandwiches:

Perfectly crisp toast and scrambled eggs make a delightful breakfast sandwich. The eggs pack in the protein, fueling you for a busy morning. Whole grain bread is a complex carbohydrate, helping you stay full until lunchtime. Complete this healthy breakfast with tea or coffee with our Seattle office coffee service.

Cereal and Milk:

This classic breakfast combination is popular with good reason. It’s quick, convenient, and easy. Plus, it can be healthy, too! Opt for low-fat milk for a great source of protein and calcium. There are also plenty of healthy cereal choices. Look for whole-grain cereals that are low in sugar, and high in fiber. Cereal and milk are easy to include in your Seattle office pantry service so that employees can always find a healthy breakfast.

Yogurt with Toppings:

How about a parfait for breakfast? Creamy yogurt, granola, and fruit make a delightfully tangy and nutritious breakfast. Or, top your yogurt with salty nuts for a flavor that combines nicely with the sweetness of yogurt, honey, and juicy berries. Employees can easily find yogurt in your Des Moines micro-market.

Oatmeal:

Warm and soothing for cold and rainy days, oatmeal is another excellent healthy breakfast choice. Known for being high in fiber, you can add protein to your oatmeal with a splash of milk or some nuts. Wash it all down with orange juice from one of the break room Seattle vending machines.

Fresh Fruit:

Start your day off with plenty of vitamins, minerals, and fiber from tasty fresh fruit. Not only is this breakfast option healthy, but it’s also bursting with sweet, juicy flavors that awaken your senses.

Top Benefits of Including Healthy Breakfast Options in the Workplace
