understand the most desired products in the workplace. This being stated we <br />allow and even promote customers to get involved in product selection. This <br />can be done through various methods. The simplest is customers are given a list <br />of ALL the products we can carry in a market and they chart the most coveted <br />items. Another way is Evergreen Refreshments can provide sampling where we <br />bring in entrees for staff to sample. <br />C.Describe the vending equipment for each location listed. Specifically, address <br />payment options. Include energy efficiency ratings as applicable. Attach photos <br />if available. <br />1.What connectivity or hook-ups would be required? Include any <br />requested city preparation work. If connectivity is not available, <br />describe alternative options. In the smaller locations (i.e animal <br />shelter) we would place vending machines. These machines are coin, <br />cash and credit card swipe. They do not need special hook-up. They <br />run on antenna seeking the nearest cell signal for operation. In the <br />slightly bigger locations we may consider the PICO system. The PICO <br />DUO has two single door coolers side by side that can come locked. <br />The only way to unlock is by credit card, debit card and or phone <br />application. This tells the machine you are a paying customer. PICO <br />can carry sundry items, snacks, beverages and fresh food like <br />sandwiches, salads, breakfast burritos, dairy, product, eggs, cheese, <br />yogurts etc etc. Lastly, in the largest locations with the highest foot <br />traffic (i.e Police North Precinct) we would place a Micro Market. <br />Markets can have fresh food, beverage, snack, and frozen food. <br />Payment options are diverse. You can pay by credit card, debit card, <br />phone application, market card which can be loaded by cash at kiosk <br />or credit card from kiosk OR personal computer. You can pay and load <br />money via phone application to pay via phone android OR I-Phone. <br />Internet connection is best for market locations. <br />D.Describe how the services will be approached per location, including: <br />1.Service and restocking schedule, We start with <br />antennas for our vending machines.
