18 January 2026A Vending machine for companies is a permanent catering solution designed specifically for the needs of employees in break rooms, offices or production halls. It provides snacks, drinks or fresh food autonomously.
Function and area of use
In modern companies, vending machines replace or complement the classic canteen. They guarantee 24/7 supply, especially in companies with shift work or flexible working hours (flexitime). The vending machines can be configured to dispense healthy meals, salads or yoghurt (fresh food) in addition to snacks.
The range of applications extends from small start-ups to large industrial companies. Specialised software solutions make it easy to manage credit.
Company vending machines can also be used for non-food items such as IT accessories (keyboards, mice, cables) to automate the internal procurement process and avoid waiting times at the IT help desk.
Advantages
- Round-the-clock catering for all shift patterns
- Small space requirement compared with a cafeteria or canteen
- Easy billing via existing works ID cards (NFC/RFID)
- Hygienic supply of food thanks to closed cooling systems
- Less unproductive walking time for employees
- Option to subsidise healthy food
Technical details
These units are usually equipped with energy-saving LED lighting and a quiet compressor so as not to disturb the working environment. Connection is via the internal network (LAN) or secure mobile internet (LTE). Support for the MDB standard for cashless payment is mandatory.
