What sort of food and drink items can be stocked in a micro market?

Micro markets are a super flexible option, offering a huge variety of fresh and packaged food and drinks. Micro markets can house fresh food like salads and sandwiches in refrigerators as well as offering hot drinks, cold drinks, confectionery and other ambient snacks. Micro markets can also provide a healthier selection including fresh fruit and special vegan and gluten free options.

How do you maintain hygiene levels when there are many customer touchpoints?

Micro markets are self-checkout, meaning that only the end-consumer comes into contact with the products and payment terminal. Connect Vending offers a fully managed operating service to ensure your micro market is always fully stocked and machines are clean and fully operational. Connect Vending also offers a range of contactless payment, minimising the amount of touchpoints, and contactless checkout using state of the art app-based technology.

Are micro markets more susceptible to theft?

Micro markets are unstaffed, which can often give business owners the wrong impression that products are at an increased risk of theft. However, we find that the levels of theft from micro markets are extremely low and find that end-users find the self-checkout process familiar. It is possible to install security camera systems, should you be particularly concerned about the risk of theft. Our micro markets are managed using market-leading back office tools, meaning we can alert you of any discrepancies in inventory that may be as a result of theft, for you to look into further.

Are micro markets only suitable for larger workspaces?

Micro markets are typically installed in medium or large spaces so you're able to offer your employees a much wider variety of food and drink. However, if you have a smaller or oddly shaped space, Connect Vending can still provide you with a micro market solution as we can design something bespoke to suit you. Our consultative sales process means that if we feel at any point that a micro market is not appropriate for your workspace, we will suggest an alternative solution that fits you best.
