The level of commitment your employees have to your company and brand has a direct impact on the success of your company. This is why it’s important to keep a positive work environment for the whole team. One way to keep productivity high is by providing a micro-market for your employees. Keep reading to see how micro-markets can improve your business.
Employee Happiness
Happy employees are productive employees. Keep in mind that your employees spend most of their day at the office working for you. By respecting their commitment to the company and the needs your employees have, you can keep morale up, and turnover down. A convenience store-style marketplace that offers your employees their favorite beverages and snacks during their work day is one way to show appreciation.
Our team at Mcliff loves to support your employees and their snacking needs. With Mcliff, you have complete control over what products are stocked, and you can always change your mind.
“I love the market [stocking] side of micro-markets and looking at new products to bring,” Melissa Benton, Mcliff Market Coordinator, said.
Favorite Products in the Austin Market
Every market in Texas is unique. The favorite products employees love to eat and drink in Houston will be vastly different from Dallas. Here are the favorites for the Austin market:
- Celsius Water
- Poppi Probiotic Soda
- Skittles
- Hippeas Chickpea Chips
Health
Micro-markets go beyond traditional vending by providing fresh and healthy, well-balanced meals for your employees. While they can still grab their favorite salty or sweet snacks throughout the day, when lunch (or dinner) comes around, they don’t have to leave the office to find lunch. We provide delicious and nutritious sandwiches, salads, and snack fruits and veggies to keep your employees full and focused.
“People in Austin like to buy local. What you put in your body is your choice, but I like to provide healthier options. The Celsius energy drink is sugar-free. The probiotic drink is a healthier soda option. Austin is a great market to provide these options in. But don’t get me wrong, I’ll eat sour patch kids every once in a while,” Joe Giannetti, Mcliff Operations Manager for Austin, said.
Retention
Micro-markets provide a safe space for your employees to take a break from work, rest and recuperate during lunch or break times. This is one of the ways Mcliff micro-markets help boost employee morale.
Micro-markets also improve morale by encouraging collaboration and team building. If employees stay in the office for lunch or breaks, they have time to chat and get to know each other. Micro-markets foster camaraderie and improve productivity while doing so.
Invest in your employees without actually investing any money. The cost to install a micro-market in your office building or warehouse has no upfront cost to you. Installation and delivery is $0.
Conclusion
Your employees can make or break your business. Provide your employees the best possible work environment, reduce turnover and sick days, and build a positive work environment with a Mcliff micro-market.
