to function in multiple ways now. "
Cotton added that ColdSnap and
Bevi are offering exactly what her
company wants to see in breakrooms,
both in offices and manufacturing
facilities, where the challenge is
employee retention and recruitment.
Looking for the wow factor
" The customer and the employees are
looking for high-quality products,
functional equipment that needs to
be working consistently and they
are looking for something that is
'wow,' something that is cool and
something they want to be around, "
Cotton explained.
" The workspace needs to
accomplish different things at different
times of the day, " she added. " Vendors
need to match the outcomes, which
can differ as the day goes on - as a
breakfast space, as a social connection
space and a networking space, as a
happy hour space. "
Matt Fonte of ColdSnap noted
that his company recently put the
ColdSnap machine on a mobile
cart, pointing out the versatility of
the equipment. This allowed the
machine to serve different areas at
different times of the day, such as
a breakroom in the morning and
a cafe or a breakout session area in
the afternoon. " We can make frozen
coffees in the morning, protein shakes
and smoothies for lunch, ice creams in
the afternoon and even cocktails in the
evening; the machine is multi-purpose
and can be used all day, " Fonte said.
Data is critical
Cotton said that data has become
increasingly important in
determining the performance of
breakroom areas. " We need to
capture data relating to usage,
because we are making decisions
based on how many people are
visiting these spaces, plus we
need to evaluate the value of the

equipment that we are bringing
to the office. Is it helping with
recruitment of top talent? Is it
helping them retain employees? "
she asked. Cotton added that when
it is time to cut budgets, data that
validates equipment usage can help
keep a piece of equipment from
being removed from the location.
