Hometown Fresh Micro-Market!  the Best Houston Texas Decision You Ever Made… and it didn’t cost you a dime!!

For years vending machines have been loved by break rooms everywhere. They offer convenience, provide delicious/healthy snacks for your staff employees. However, in these same years, vending machines have been loved to be hated. Products getting stuck, coin jams, dollar bills (no matter how many times you flatten them) won’t read and in some scenarios products (when they do vend) deliver only to be expired. In short, vending machines are just that: machines. And machines are not perfect sometimes causing frustration. But what if there was a system that was closer to perfect? One that prevents lost money and stuck products? One that offered even fresher food and guaranteed that customers never had to purchase an outdated product again? A micro-market from Hometown Fresh Markets is the answer.

A Hometown Fresh Micro-Market operates as a mini convenience store in break rooms or lounges in place of typical vending machines. With open shelving for shelf stable products, reach in coolers and freezers customers (your staff members) can touch their products before making a purchase. Imagine the possibility of touching and feeling your product choices prior to purchasing! Checking expiration dates and examining nutrition content is easy.

And for freshness?
Those reach in coolers, in addition to beverages; hold FRESH food like delicious sandwiches, salads, burritos, yogurts, parfaits, wraps, fruit, etc. are now readily accessible to your staff without ever having to leave their Houston, Conroe, Woodlands offices.
So what does all of this mean for your business? How does happier and healthier employees, less off-site staff lunches, and improved employee efficiency sound? Which in turn increases your company’s bottom line as happy employees produce better results.
