" A customer said she wanted one,
but she didn't like the company
pitching it and wanted us, " he
recalled. " I told them we'd do it, but
to please be patient, and within 30
days, they had a micro market. "
Vander Vending began with a
Three Square Market kiosk and has
primarily stuck with the micro market
manufacturer as its supplier of choice.
" They helped us install our first one,
and there were quirks; we had to do
some on-site configuration, but we
made it work and it didn't take long, "
he recalled. And the rest, as they say,
is history.
When Vander Vending bought
Fresh Idea Foods, it inherited some
micro markets, and it has continually
been building its own growing base of
them, with some 80 in operation today.
" We love markets as much as our
customers do, " Schreiner commented.
SAY 'CHEESE'
Three years ago, Schreiner added a
bright yellow " Big Cheese " branded
food truck to his arsenal for special
events and to offer locations something
different on occasion to invigorate
their employees' lunch break. The
Vander Vending food truck specializes
in all things cheese, including gourmet
grilled cheese, cheese dogs, cheese
fries and cheeseburgers.
" When their work site isn't close
Jerry Schreiner checks in on one of the
company's 80 micro markets.
" We design markets with the customer
and customize them to be branded
for the customer to build morale in
their company. We work with them to
decide what's merchandised in them.
If they're successful, we are. "
to any eateries, grabbing lunch feels
less like a break and more like a race
against the clock. Instead of wasting
their break traveling across town,
waiting in line and rushing back, they're
invited to reach out to Vander Vending, "
Schreiner commented. " We'll park our
company food truck near their work
site and make sure their employees are
well-served, and they can also use it to
cater special events. "
