The modern breakroom — built for Midwest workplaces with 50+ employees.
Self-checkout markets, smart coolers, and real food in your breakroom. We design, install, stock, and service the whole thing. Vending machines were a 1985 answer to a 2026 problem — we build the answer your team actually uses.
Vending solved a problem your workplace doesn't have anymore.
Old vending was built for buildings with 30 people, predictable hours, and tolerance for disappointment. Modern facilities need real food, real choice, and a breakroom employees don't have to leave the building to use.
Real food, not just chips and soda
Fresh sandwiches, salads, frozen entrées, dairy, fruit, and the snacks people actually want. Curated to your workforce — not a stock vending mix.
Open whenever your shifts run
Your second shift shouldn't have to drive to a gas station at 2 AM. Self-checkout markets stay open whenever the building is. Stocked on a cadence that matches your shift change times.
Cashless. No jammed bill validators.
Tap, app, badge, or payroll deduction. Sub-30-second checkout. No coin returns, no "machine ate my dollar," no ticket to your facilities team.
Smart coolers for tight spaces
If you don't have the square footage for a full open-concept market, a tap-to-shop smart cooler delivers the same fresh-food range in a vending-machine footprint.
We handle the operations
Install, stocking, restocking, equipment service, payment systems, reporting. You provide the space and power; we handle everything else.
Data on what your team actually buys
Real-time inventory and sales reporting. We tune the SKU mix to your workforce so you're not paying us to stock things nobody wants.
Three setups. The right one fits your space.
Not every facility needs a 200 sq ft open-concept market. We size the install to your headcount, breakroom layout, and shift profile.
Open-Concept Markets
The full breakroom store. Open shelves, glass-front coolers, real meals, self-checkout kiosk.
Smart Coolers
Frictionless tap-to-shop coolers. The compact micro-market option for offices that want food + drink without a full footprint.
Hybrid Markets
Open shelves for grab-and-go, smart coolers for fresh food. The setup most multi-shift workplaces actually need.
Built for the workplaces that actually need this.
Every industry has a different breakroom problem. We tune the install, the SKU mix, and the service cadence to the shift profile and demographics of your workforce.
From conversation to working breakroom in about two weeks.
We don't do six-week procurement drama. The setup is simple — we walk your space, design the install, and make it work.
Tell us about your facility
Headcount, shifts, breakroom layout, what's there now. Two minutes on a form or a 10-minute call. We'll tell you upfront whether a micro-market is the right fit — and if it isn't, we'll tell you that too.
We design and install
Site walk, layout plan, equipment selection, SKU mix tuned to your workforce. We handle delivery, install, payment systems, and the first stock. No cost on your end.
We stock and service it
Restocking on a schedule that matches your shifts. Payment systems monitored. Equipment serviced. Sales and inventory reported. You provide the space; we run the operation.
Serving Illinois & Wisconsin workplaces.
Midwest at launch — we focus where we can deliver real service. Outside this footprint? Reach out anyway. We'll tell you honestly whether we can serve your facility today.
The questions we hear most.
How much does a micro-market cost?
For most qualifying facilities, there's no monthly fee and no equipment cost on your end. We finance the equipment, install it, stock it, and earn revenue through product sales. You provide the space and power. Pricing varies by SKU mix and any subsidy program you choose to offer your team.
What's the minimum employee count?
50 employees on site is the floor where the unit economics actually work. Below that, you're better served by a vending machine — and we'll tell you so. Sweet spot is 100–500. Above 500 is fine too — we just split into multiple markets or add smart coolers across the facility.
Open-concept market vs smart cooler — which fits us?
Open-concept needs ~150–250 sq ft of breakroom space and pays back at higher headcounts. Smart coolers fit a vending-machine footprint and work great for offices and tighter spaces. Open-concept, smart coolers, or a hybrid — we'll recommend based on your space.
How long does install take?
Smart-cooler installs run one to two weeks. Open-concept and hybrid markets typically run two to three weeks from contract to first stock — there's a site walk, equipment lead time, and a soft-launch stocking pass. We'll give you a real schedule, not a brochure number.
What about loss / shrinkage?
Modern self-checkout systems handle shrink well — camera-monitored kiosks, mobile-payment audit trails, and tap-to-unlock smart coolers all keep loss at low single digits in normal facilities. We share the data with you. If your facility profile is unusual, we'll flag it before contract.
Where do you operate?
Illinois and Wisconsin at launch — Chicago metro, Milwaukee metro, Madison, and the major secondary cities in both states. We're expanding the footprint as capacity allows. See current service area →
