A-1 Vending Inc.
Micro-Markets
Self-Serve Kiosk
At A-1 Vending, we practice vending for the 21st century. That means we explore the latest technologies to give your employees the most effective and efficient vending solutions in the industry. The micro-market exemplifies that goal. Our market system brings an automated convenience store to your facility.
Our shelves are stocked with a wide variety of name brand candy items, chips, cookies, fresh sandwiches, entrees and many drink choices including hot coffee.
The fully automated store has modern efficient coolers, attractive fixtures, kiosk and a full security system. Each market has its own web-based inventory management system, which makes adding products and evaluating inventory quick and easy. The self-checkout kiosk system allows customers to simply pick out the items that they would like to purchase, scan the UPC symbol at the kiosk and pay using a credit/debit card or a reloadable store value card.
​
Unlike vending machines that have limited choices, an open-air micro-market allows unlimited selection of healthy, nutritious products as well as the traditional vending machine fare. Customers can see nutritional facts, etc. on the packaging before they buy them, so they know exactly what they are getting before they make their purchase.
The micro-market system eliminates lost money and refund hassles, ensures freshness and inventory control, makes subsidies easy to customize and regulate and reduces the amount of time and money that employees spend leaving the office to get food every day. And, if you are concerned about theft, our security system works "in sync" with the kiosk to monitor the market. Clearly marked signs indicate the users are on camera, which discourages theft.
