    SNACK VENDER SERVICES

     Canteen’s “Balanced Choices” program dedicates specific slots in our Snack machines, offering products that are lower in fat and sodium and have fewer calories per serving. This program is designed to help our customers make sensible choices about what they eat. “Balanced Choices” snack foods in vending are pre-packaged foods which meet customer expectations for today’s concerned consumer.

    A decal (enlarged here and can be seen on your vender) clearly explains the “Balanced Choices” program. Each product serving has:

    •  250 calories or less
    • 350 milligrams or less of sodium
    • no trans fat
    • 35% or less total fat
    • 10% or less saturated fat.

    Nuts and seeds are exempted from the total fat due to their fiber, vitamin E and better fats content. However, they still must meet the criteria for sodium and calories.

    Finding good tasting, sensible snacks will be easier than ever by looking for the “Balanced Choices” icon in your snack machine. Canteen doesn’t just say we will carry these items for our customers. By dedicating space in our machines for these snacks, a sensible snack purchase is always an option.

    Some examples: Baked Lays, Baked Ruffles, Baked Sour Cream & Onion, Chewy Trail Mix Bar, Strawberry Yogurt Bar, Fruit Snacks, Granola Bars, Granola Berry Mix, Rice Krispie Bars, Nutrigrain Bars & Twists, Pretzels, Raisins, almonds, peanuts, Rice Cakes, Snackwell cookies, Fat Free Fig Newtons, Zoo Animal Crackers and more…

    COLD BEVERAGE VENDER SERVICES 

     Canteen continues to expand the wide selection of Pepsi and Coke bottle beverage selections, especially in the non-carbonated category. Flavored waters, isotonic drinks, energy drinks, and vitamin waters are gaining market share. Canteen is responding by offering more shelf space for these selections offering popular products that customers prefer. In appropriate locations, we install glass-front bottle beverage venders that are equipped with elevators to serve unshaken beverages to customers.
