A bistro as a solution for staff catering?
When you hear the word ‘bistro’, the first thing that comes to mind is a small restaurant in France that evokes a feeling of well-being and cosiness. How can a vending machine create this feeling?
Foodji gives employees access to delicious food around the clock, right at their workplace. In addition to the classic snacks and drinks that a standard vending machine offers, it also provides high-quality, fresh food. From pasta and salads to curries, wraps, bagels and classic chocolate bars.
It tastes as if it's fresh from the kitchen. Employers can set up the machine in a break room or lounge, creating a cosy atmosphere for employees during their breaks.
The added value is clear: long distances to good, healthy food are reduced because the Foodji is always close to the workplace – whether in the office, production facility or hospital corridor/lounge.
- Eat when you are hungry
- Affordable in-house catering
- Can be set up anywhere (indoor)
Your employees can purchase their desired product directly on the Foodji touchscreen or via a dedicated app. You can see the prices there, but payment is cashless – everything is done digitally on the screen or in the app. Your desired meal can even be reserved from home up to 6 hours in advance.
Feed your employees without any hassle: the Foodji team takes care of everything: filling, maintenance, cleaning, support. We also plan the range individually according to your needs. All you need in your company is 1 m² of space and a standard power socket.
