Top 5 Reasons to Upgrade Your School Vending Machines to HUMAN

1. The Vending Machines You Have Now Make You Feel Bad

You know it’s true.  Every time you’re hungry enough to consider buying something from one of the old, junk food vending machines that are on your campus now, you take a minute to convince yourself that you are not starving, and can wait until later to eat.  Or if you do give in, you feel bad afterward.  And don’t you cringe every time you see one of the impressionable youngsters at your school going for a sugary coke and bag of cookies instead of buying an apple from the cafeteria?  It doesn’t have to be this way!  HUMAN’s healthy vending machines are filled with nothing but healthy snacks—to foster better eating habits in students, and let you get a healthy snack when you need one!

2. HUMAN’s Healthy Vending Machines Earn Money for Your School

As a prime healthy vending location, your school has the choice of earning a percent commission on all of the snacks sold at no cost to the school, or of leasing the machines and keeping all the profits!  School budgets are tighter than ever.  Programs that help students succeed and keep teachers sane are getting cut left and right, with no end in sight.  Which program would you bring back with the extra cash from HUMAN’s healthy vending machines?

3. HUMAN’s Healthy Vending Machines Accept School Debit and Credit Cards

If your school has a debit program for lunches and other school-day expenses, HUMAN healthy vending machines’ intelligent internal computer can be programmed to accept this as a form of payment!  So it won’t just be all the bullies who stole the other kids’ lunch money that get the advantage of healthy and delicious snacks.  Anyone on your school’s debit system will be able to access the new school vending machines.  And of course, the machines also accept credit cards and cash.

4. It’s About to be The Law

President Obama has vowed to rid schools of the “sugary snacks and drinks” that fill your school vending machines now.  He is aiming to get this measure into the Reauthorization of Childhood Nutrition Act, which will be negotiated sometime this year.  If you upgrade your vending machines now, you’ll be ahead of the curve!  And who knows – Michelle Obama might even visit your school on her eradicate-child-obesity tour to congratulate you on taking the steps to keep America’s youth healthy!

5. HUMAN’s Vending Machines are Sophisticated and Pretty

A sleek and attractive design will draw attention – both to the machines and to your school’s progressive image.  Streaming videos on the machines educate kids about the dangers of obesity and malnutrition while drawing students in, which means more profit for the school.  And if any big wigs stop by your campus to check up on things, they will be sure to notice that those vending machines project a sophisticated image that contributes to the learning environment.  It may help them realize that your school is run effectively and efficiently, and deserves whatever funding is available to keep running at full capacity!
