5 Benefits of Having a Coffee Vending Machine in the Workplace - Top 5 Advantages of a Workplace with its Own Coffee Ven

While installing a vending machine does incur an initial investment, the returns are well worth the effort if your employees are satisfied. Here are 5 ways in which a coffee vending machine can benefit your office.

1

Reduced Overhead Costs

Vending machines work without the aid of labour or a staff member so this means that offices can save money on employing staff to make coffee and other warm beverages for the remainder of the employees by installing a vending machine. A fully-staffed canteen or even a small cafe is likely to incur higher overhead costs to a workplace than the installation of a vending machine while paying the salaries of those who work in the canteen or cafe as well as the cost of providing raw materials needed to prepare beverages will also be added to the company bill. A vending machine achieves the end result of having a cafe in your office without all these unnecessary and costly concerns.

2

Requires Little Maintenance

Once a coffee vending machine is set up in a workplace, it will require little to no maintenance for at least a few years. This is, of course, dependent on how well employees use the machine and whether the coffee vending machine is refilled with high-quality ingredients. The methods of payment used in modern vending machines have also made things easier to manage as employees can now use contactless payment modes to pay for their daily cups of coffee.

3

Alternative Revenue Scheme

Commercial coffee machines in Sri Lanka are widely available through retailers like Fits Retail and others and are easy to install thanks to the modern technology employed in most new models. The amount that should be charged for each cup of coffee from the vending machine can be determined by the office management and it can be easily converted into an alternative source of income for the office as long as the service provided by the machine is not overpriced nor the staff members exploited for making fast gains.

4

Satisfied Employees are Productive Employees

Never underestimate the power of a single cup of coffee to revive and re-energise your staff to perform better on the daily tasks assigned to them. It is normal for energy to lag during certain times of the day and for overall productivity to plummet in the afternoon or after the lunch hour. These productivity slumps can be effectively defeated with a warm cup of coffee.

5

Convenience = Efficiency

Canteens, cafes, and other food outlets often operate during designated times of the day. This means that staff who work late or arrive at the office early cannot expect to have access to a cup of coffee before the official "opening hours" of the canteen or nearby cafe. Vending machines solve this issue and provide staff with an outlet for refreshments throughout the day and night. This is both convenient and necessary for those who may work overtime or put in more hours at the office to complete urgent projects.
