Healthy Eating Trends

09/30/2009

 A Spanish company, Lof (short for Lofresco), is trying a new approach to healthy vending.  Rather than focusing on just organic foods and snacks, they are trying a more balanced approach with a focus on nutrition.  According to the website Springwise.com, "Their machines, which are supplied, installed and maintained for free, sell nuts, prepared fruit, ready meals and Spanish speciality, gazpacho soup." 

Based on my observations from the recent NAMA Show in Chicago, the trend toward healthy eating is not going to slow down.  Operators are looking for more and more inventive ways to maintain profits and satisy their customers' requests for healthy options.  As we hear of more opportunities, VEI will provide the information!
