Many people decide to make New Year’s resolutions around eating better. Whether for weight loss or just making healthier choices, it’s always good to ensure you have good, nourishing food, with a few treats!

As many of us return to working in offices, you might be tempted by vending machines with sugary candy, salty chips, and cold sodas. While these are all fine in moderation, we have a few surprising tips to ensure you can stay on track with your goals and enjoy vending machines!

Keep Snacking

Yes, you read that right! Studies have shown that having smaller meals throughout the day sustains energy and curbs hunger. So, make sure your day includes breakfast, lunch, and plenty of snacks! Many offices have vending machines with healthy options– such as protein bars or even salads!

Stay Hydrated

Let’s be clear: if you’re hungry, you’re hungry! Never try to curb hunger with liquid. However, staying properly hydrated can help you feel better and be more aware while you eat. If you’re not a fan of plain water, you can add flavor drops or go with options like unsweetened iced tea!

Tip: while many think that juice is a healthy choice- it often is filled with high amounts of sugar and calories. Double-check what you’re getting if you’re trying to be aware of those things!

Treat Yourself

Another surprising one! Now, to be fair, we don’t mean every day. Sometimes you may need to resist the urge to grab a candy bar, and instead have some fruit. But let’s be honest- some days, the only thing that will curb that craving is the candy bar.

The best solution is to honor your intense cravings- often, when people ignore their cravings, it later leads to overindulgence. So, if you’re going on a few days of craving the same thing: get it! Allow yourself to enjoy it, and return to your conscientious eating!

To ensure you have the proper snacks to keep on track with your New Year’s Resolutions, consider us here at Orsino Vending. We have everything from coffee machines to fresh food machines for sale! Our machines are equipped for dollar bills and cards and offer quick, precise maintenance. We have proudly served Englewood, NJ, and its’ surrounding areas for over 25 years.

How Snacking Sustains Energy Throughout the Workday

Posted on August 11, 2022 by Orsino Vending

Why is it that snack time was an integral part of our days when we were kids, but as adults, that has since faded? We at Orsino Vending are here to tell you: keep on snacking! Many studies have shown the benefits of snacking; sustained energy, and in some cases, weight loss! If you need more proof, below is how snacking throughout the workday sustains energy.

We’ve all been there: it’s 3 PM, you have two hours to go, and you are tired. Most people will reach for a cup of coffee or a sugary soda. And while we understand why, it’s better to snack!

Caffeine will affect your sleep that night, causing you to be even more tired the next day.

By reaching for a snack, you are giving your body the tools to break down your choice of snack into sustainable energy for your body. Rather than a quick burst that fizzles, you will instead have energy that lasts you hours, pushing through the 3 PM slump and setting you up to have a restful sleep!

Of course, it does help if the snacks you choose are energy-boosting. There’s nothing wrong with a bag of chips or a cookie now and then, but if you have them every day, you’ll likely be bogged down. Instead, a solid rule of thumb to keep in mind is: fat, carb, and protein. This combination is not only a hunger-crushing powerhouse, but each component works together to ensure a long-lasting hunger-crushing combination.

To ensure you have the proper snacks to fuel a productive workday, consider us here at Orsino Vending. We have everything from coffee machines to fresh food machines for sale! Our machines are equipped for dollar bills and cards and offer quick, precise maintenance. We have proudly served Englewood, NJ, and its’ surrounding areas for over 25 years. We know you will love your machine, so pick up the phone and call 201-871-9286 to get started!

Posted on June 3, 2022 by Orsino Vending

Not only does it provide everyone with food options, but it also shows your employees that you care about them. Below are a few more reasons why you should consider adding a fresh food vending machine to your break room!

But, by having a fresh food vending machine, your employees are guaranteed to have fresh, delicious food right in the convenience of their place of work. No more eating in the car on the way back to work; now they can sit and have a proper meal.

Why Vending Machine Coffee Can Help You Get Through The Day

Posted on October 29, 2015 by Joseph Orsino

Coffee is a lifeline for many people.

The difference between a good day and bad day is often the question of, “did I get my coffee today?”

If you are like many Americans, mornings are a scramble for getting out the door and hopefully you had time to brew a coffee.

If you forget to make your coffee at home, there is probably at least one coffee stop on your way to work, but what happens when you are running short on time?

We guess your coffee will have to pass for the day or maybe you can squeeze a run out later on lunch.

Neither of those options are conducive for those who enjoy a nice hot cup of coffee to start the day off right.

Maybe your office does have a coffee pot where you can make your own or share some of someone else’s. Usually, this scenario ends up with drinking coffee that sat a little too long or drinking coffee that really tastes awful.

A unique solution to this dilemma of needing coffee is to have a coffee vending machine. Coffee vending machines make fresh individual cups of coffee that are piping hot and delicious.

Typically of name brand, coffee vending machines have the latest brewing technology so that you get your coffee quick and hot.

Vending machine coffee is not only convenient and delicious, it is also considerably less in price than if you were to buy all of what’s needed to make your own pot or run through the drive-thru.

At Orsino Vending, we know you and your employees will appreciate the modern day convenience of a coffee vending machine and we supply only the best.

Mall Vending Machine Options

Posted on June 24, 2015 by Joseph Orsino

Food courts are so 1996. No really, they are, and as time goes on, more and more mall operators realize this. Today, many restaurants offer lunch and dinner specials, competing with food courts for hungry shoppers. With comparable pricing and better food, people are more likely to visit the restaurants in or near malls.

Mall food courts have been decreasing in popularity since the early 2000’s, particularly across New York and New Jersey. Three malls in WNY have already reduced their food court options by half. The result? Happy shoppers! Most people are on board with this change.

However, it leaves a large market behind. You have teenagers who hangout, boyfriends who wait for their women to shop, moms with excited children, and a wealth of other shoppers who want a quick snack, but not the whole sit-down restaurant ordeal. You also have the mall employees who may not have time to leave or go sit-down; they depend on something quick and affordable for lunch.

Satisfy and delight your mall guests without putting costs into a dying industry of food courts. Consider a few business ventures, but know that the ideal option is a modern vending company. Orsino Vending Services has vast experience delivering premier machines and outstanding service to retail stores, malls, events, shopping centers and more.

The vending we provide offers full-service snack and drink for any organization. Whether you want to offer a full cafeteria or quick snacks is up to you; we have it all. Contact us now to make an appointment and discuss the vending options you’d like to offer in the mall.

Keep Your Recreation Center Fit With These Healthy Vending Machines

Posted on February 23, 2015 by Joseph Orsino

It’s been a long day at the YMCA. A few runs around the track, swims in the pool, and workouts have left you swamped, and thirsty. You need something that will rejuvenate your energy, not satisfy your cravings. But that vending machine in the locker room only has soda, soda, and more soda. Sweetened iced tea after a healthy exercise? We think not.

It’s almost too glaring of an irony for recreation centers like the YMCA or the Boys and Girls Club to have vending machines that are stacked with sugar. The last thing you want in your workout space is more calories. A higher sugar count, in the end, sadly makes everything you just worked for mean nothing. That’s why recreation centers across the country are seeking a healthy alternative, and Orsino Vending machines can deliver exactly that.

Sustenance For Growing, Active Children

With our fresh food options, athletes alike can continue their sustainable diet without worrying about pigging out. These machines offer salads and sandwiches that are low on fat but high on nutrients. Not to mention that they taste great, too. And to wash it all down, we opt for juices, shakes, and other beneficial beverages that will quench your thirst, but not your weight scale. Really, it isn’t hard to replace the soda with a juice. It’s actually just the click of a button.

We want to make sure our customers are not only enjoying our products on a taste level, but also, on a nutritional level. Because a healthy life is a healthy diet, which is just as important to a workout than the actual workout itself. And this starts, first and foremost, in our recreation centers, for both young and old, where exercise is most prevalent and rewarding. Let’s not let ourselves or our kids down — let’s get healthy.

Why Is It Imperative To Have Your Vending Machine Repaired Quickly

Posted on February 6, 2015 by Joseph Orsino

Sometimes the difference between a good day and bad day at the office is a quick trip to the vending machine for a refresher, whether it is a snack or a drink. For the work staff and visitors, a vending machine is an absolute necessity that can help quench thirst and hunger to keep on going.

Since vending machines are vital to the working community and its customers, keeping up on repairs and maintenance is crucial. Most machine repairs are not complicated and can be fixed by a professional vending company, but regardless of the severity, you should still repair the problem.

Vending machine repairs can revolve around coins that are lodged, snack and drink dispensers not functioning, light display, button, and electrical problems. When time is of the essence, and when there is little time to take a breather during the workday already, a broken vending machine can become a big issue among users.

Newer Machines Are More Durable

Newer vending machines are less likely to break, but that does not mean it is impossible to happen. This is why it is critical to stay on top of machine maintenance, to ensure it will function properly. If you suspect there is a problem with your vending machine, contact a professional as quickly as possible.

Orsino Vending is a reliable source for your vending machine needs. We provide state of the art machines that are quick and efficient. We also supply the snacks and beverages as well. Feel free to contact us to learn more about our services.

Here’s Why Our Coffee Vending Machine Will Be Your Employees’ New Favorite Thing

Posted on January 26, 2015 by Joseph Orsino

As we’ve mentioned before, a vending machine should be every business manager’s next major buy for the building. It adds a new service to the bustling lobby, offering healthy snacks and beverages for all those inside. And most importantly, it allows the tenants to get to know each other, providing a place to talk to those who share your space. But, when it comes to conversation, nothing does that job better than a coffee vending machine.

Bring the next caffeinating station to your business building. Our coffee machines are stacked with coffee, cappuccino, espresso, and hot chocolate options, all of which use the most up-to-date brewing technologies. You’ll be able to customize your red eye and lessen your latte, just with the click of a button. Sure to be guaranteed hits, these drinks are must-haves in a work environment, adding that needed energy during crunch time, and letting employees have a place to blow off some steam.

Employees Need Their Coffee Break

But the best part of all: you’re saving them time and money. The items in all of our vending machines are affordable, but the coffee machine lends itself a much-needed break to the working man’s wallet in particular. We cannot count the amount of times we’ve all had to leave the building to pay for an overpriced cup of coffee somewhere nearby. Now, you’ll cut that time and price in half, by simply having the coffee in your lobby at a cost that is both low and competitive. Knowing that is sure to make your coffee taste that much better.

So don’t be surprised to see a line forming soon after you plug in the caffeinating station. If anything, that line should be a sign: that your employees have been waiting for this a long, long time.

Here’s Why A Vending Machine Works Wonders In A Park

Posted on January 21, 2015 by Joseph Orsino

Let’s ask the obvious: What makes a park so beautiful? Our top reasons are, of course, that it has sprawling greens where we can walk and run, ample space for a picnic with friends and family, as well as places to play all of your favorite games or even read a book. But the most important may be that a park is a place to relax and be at ease. That’s where the vending machine comes in.

Having your favorite snacks and beverages at the park is a convenient addition to a place you already love. You’ll no longer need to adventure outside of the park just to grab water, a hot dog, and a bag of chips. Instead, everything you need will be right there. But it’s all about where you place it.

Playground Snacks And Beverages

For parents, that ideal location would be near the playground. Our vending machine makes for a perfect swing or see-saw break, as they are stocked with fresh juices, fruits, and sandwiches, perfect for all ages. No more lugging a suitcase full of food for the kids: the vending machine makes it easy to go out and enjoy the day at the park.

But let’s also take into account the fastest moving parts of the park: the joggers. A vending machine stationed either at the start or end of a path provides the more athletic types with everything from Welch’s to Tropicana, which will come in handy for them after a nice run. It’s no classic Gatorade dump over the coach’s head, but it’ll definitely do. So go beyond the basic water fountain with a machine that will have everyone in the park running over.

That said, Orsino Vending is always available for vending machine repair, should the park attendants come into conflict with their new neighbors. We’ll have the thing up and running as soon as possible, so you can enjoy your afternoon in the park to the fullest.

Vending Machines – Healthy Options

Posted on January 19, 2015 by Joseph Orsino

Everyone has to eat sometime during the day. When you are working 8 – 12 hours a day, you’re going to get hungry and start looking around for sustenance. If you are like most normal working Americans, you might look to the lunch you packed or dinner you brought with you, takeout, delivery, or fast food restaurants in the area to curb your hunger.

If you haven’t already brought food with you though, those other options can get expensive, especially on a daily basis and buying and consuming fried food on many occasions can become an unhealthy habit. In a society where we are trying to stay fit and eat better, what’s another option that can satisfy the rumblings in your stomach and also not hurt your wallet?
