As one of the prominent Columbus, Ohio Vending Companies, we recognize our role in promoting healthy eating and living across the city’s diverse workforce. Columbus’s thriving mix of Ohio State University students, state government employees working near the Statehouse, and young professionals in the Short North Arts District and Downtown Arena District creates unique demand for nutritious snacking options that align with active, health-conscious lifestyles. Our healthy vending program offers fresh, nutritious snacking options, with machines stocked exclusively with 100% healthy and organic snacks tailored to the needs of campus communities, corporate offices, and entertainment venues throughout greater Columbus. FitPick® is a distinguished vending and self-pay market program designed to assist employers and consumers in selecting products that adhere to established nutrition standards. Its straightforward guidelines provide clear criteria for calories, fat, sugar, and sodium, making it an ideal choice for both employers and consumers navigating Columbus’s competitive workplace culture.
Our membership in NAMA, the leading professional organization for vending companies, enables us to provide our customers with the nationally acclaimed “Fit Pick” healthy vending machine program. This initiative showcases a selection of snacks, beverages, and foods that conform to rigorous standards on calories, fat, sugar, and sodium, helping customers make healthier choices—whether they’re grabbing a quick snack between classes at the OSU Wexner Medical Center, refueling during a shift in one of Columbus’s thriving healthcare or insurance offices, or seeking better nutrition options in the Easton or Polaris office parks.
Whether you’re placing healthy vending machines across Ohio State’s sprawling campus, throughout state government office buildings downtown, or in the bustling entertainment districts of Short North and the Brewery District, FitPick® stands out effortlessly.
Fit Pick® employs eye-catching stickers to mark the vending machine slots filled with Fit Pick® approved snacks, making it easy for Columbus’s diverse workforce—from university students to convention visitors to healthcare professionals at OSU Wexner Medical Center—to spot nutritious options at a glance. More prominent clings and stickers offer detailed insights into the Fit Pick™ nutritional standards.
Fit Pick® labels distinguish between two sets of nutritional guidelines tailored to meet the needs of Columbus’s health-conscious communities. The most popular adult criteria is the 35-10-35 standard (max 35% calories from fat, max 10% from saturated fat, and max 35% product weight from sugar). Additionally, Fit Pick® provides labels for items meeting The Alliance for a Healthier Generation’s Competitive Foods Guidelines, ensuring compliance across higher education campuses, corporate offices, and hospitality venues throughout Columbus and central Ohio.
Fit Pick®’s consistent labeling system is recognized across communities, counties, and states nationwide, enabling offices in different Columbus locations—whether near the Ohio Statehouse, Easton Town Center, or the University District—to implement the same program seamlessly.
Our aim is to supply straightforward yet crucial nutritional information at the point of sale, empowering Columbus consumers to make healthier snack choices informed by clear, “better for you” guidelines, whether they’re grabbing a quick bite between classes, during a shift at a state agency, or while exploring our city’s thriving food service and retail landscape.
FitPick® transforms healthy snacking across Columbus by clearly marking “better for you” options, with nearly 700 FitPick® approved products ready to stock in vending machines throughout the city’s diverse districts. Whether your employees work in the insurance and financial services towers downtown, attend classes at Ohio State University’s sprawling campus, or grab lunch between shifts in the Brewery District’s bustling corridors, FitPick® removes guesswork from vending machine purchases and helps Columbus’s health-conscious workforce make smarter choices instantly. This program streamlines selection and purchasing for everyone—from state government workers in the Statehouse area to young professionals in Clintonville and Convention Center visitors—making nutritious snacking effortless regardless of location or schedule.
The FitPick® program recognizes the importance of functional foods,
acknowledging that snacks are often equivalent to meals.
VendVue is revolutionizing workplace vending across Columbus by dedicating ourselves to comprehensively understanding our clients’ wellness goals and needs. Whether you operate in the Ohio Statehouse, manage OSU Wexner Medical Center facilities, or oversee corporate offices in the Easton or Polaris districts, traditional vending machines—which offer up to 45 diverse products, including popular “pleasure foods” like candy bars, chips, and soft drinks—no longer reflect the health consciousness of Columbus’s young professional workforce and student populations. This shift towards wellness among the thousands of state government employees, healthcare workers, and university-affiliated staff has inspired us to offer tailored solutions. We’re delighted to collaborate with our clients through the personalized FitPick® program, catering to their wellness requirements with a variety of healthy alternatives that resonate with Columbus’s growing demand for nutritious workplace options.
