Vending machines are traditionally seen as an easily accessible haven for junk food, snacks and fizzy drinks. However, schools and universities are now becoming more aware of the benefits of supplying their students and faculty with healthy foods and drinks.

At Vendtrade, we do offer a host of vending machines containing popular snacks and leading drinks, but our vending machines for schools and universities in particular are chock full of healthy snacks, fresh food, and hydrating drinks – offering both students and staff members a slew of health-boosting choices, including fresh juices, sandwiches, salads, cereal bars and protein bars, fruits, yoghurts, and many other nutritious treats.

Healthy food choices in an educational or academic institution breed more productive behaviours and Vendtrade is leading the healthy food and drink revolution in the UK – promoting not only healthier eating and drinking habits among students and pupils, but also putting parents’ concerns to rest over what their children are consuming throughout the day.

As a matter of fact, parents will never need to worry about their children walking around with loose change flopping around in their pockets, as our machines can be outfitted with an additional component that accepts pre-paid cards and tokens. Many schools, colleges, and universities have, in fact, now opted for ‘contactless’ or ‘cashless’ vending machines due to the sheer convenience and additional security they offer.
