Why Industrial Sites Choose Connect Vending
Production workers, engineers and logistics staff keep the business running around the clock and they deserve access to quality fresh food and drinks to keep them fueled. Whether that’s a bean to cup coffee machine, a fresh food vending machine or access to a snack vending machine, Connect Vending will design a business vending solution around your sites individual needs.
At Connect Vending, we’ve spent over 30 years working with industrial businesses including Amazon Filters, EV Cargo and JCDecaux. We understand the difference between a solution that looks good on paper and one that actually works on the shop floor and when something goes wrong our engineers show up. 90% of break down calls are attended within four working hours and in 95% of cases our engineers fix the issue on the first visit resulting in a 97% client retention rate.
Business Vending Machines Designed for Industrial Environments
Connect Vending’s range of industrial vending machines include robust floor standing snack and cold drink machines that are built to handle high traffic use and withstand tougher conditions whether that’s a production floor or warehouse. We also offer a range of tabletop coffee machines and floor standing coffee machines to fit any space, with a capacity ranging from 60 to 250+ drinks per day.
Payment options on the vending machines are flexible and tailored to your workforce. Some businesses choose to offer subsidised or free refreshments using pre-loaded fobs, while others prefer standard contactless payment via card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. We’ll work with you to find the right approach for your site and your budget.
Vending Rental for Industrial Sites
Our vending machine rental selection is available for sites both large and small, with a mix of snack and drink vending machines and combination options for your business vending.
Worried your vending rental will get damaged on site? Our range of industrial coffee machine and vending rental machines include sturdy floor-standing options to withstand any trauma!
Innovations in recent years include refrigeration, with eco modes to ensure your refrigerated vending machine consumes as little power as possible. Need to see the nutrients and allergens? No problem – products can now be programmed in to the touch screen for users to view before purchase.
Covering Every Part of Your Site
Industrial sites are rarely a one-size-fits-all and a single vending machine in the break room rarely suits all of your employees needs. Before any installation, we carry out a comprehensive site survey to make sure everything is planned, positioned and ready to go. On the day, our team sets up and tests every machine on-site so it’s plug and play from the moment we leave.
For larger sites, a Deli Café micro market can replace or supplement a staffed canteen entirely — giving your team a full range of fresh food, hot drinks, snacks and cold drinks through a self-service till, available around the clock with no staffing required.
Recruitment and Retention in a Competitive Market
Industrial and manufacturing roles are among the hardest to fuill and retain in the UK. Providing quality fresh food and coffee in the workplace sends a clear signal that you value your workforce. It also keeps employees onsite during breaks which reduces the risk of staff returning late and gives your team one less reason to look elsewhere.
Behind the scenes we use anonymised machine performance data to make sure your solution is always working as hard as it should. Your dedicated account manager reviews this with you regularly, so together you can make informed decisions about products, placement and usage. 97% of our clients renew their contracts with us. Not just because the machines work, but because we take the whole thing off your plate. No ordering consumables, no chasing engineers, no managing multiple suppliers. One invoice, one account manager, one point of contact.
