Types of teas for Los Angeles offices

We’re celebrating National Hot Tea Month in January. Who doesn’t love a cup of tea to start or wind down their day? We thought it’d be fun to explore the different types of teas in this blog post. After all, other than coffee, tea is one of the most consumed beverages in the world.

Types of teas

Green Tea

Green tea is prepared from fresh or withered, lightly heated, or steamed leaves. The preparation method makes the tea more light, fresh, and slightly grassy. Different green teas have slightly different flavors which can range from nutty, to fruity and even almost seaweed-like. One of the biggest benefits of green tea is that it supports heart and brain health and helps with mental alertness thanks to the caffeine content. No matter what beverage you enjoy in the morning, adding green tea to your routine can be beneficial.

Black tea

Black tea is often sold in a blend, which determines its flavor profile. The season and place where the tea plant is grown impact the flavor of the tea. It is also one of the most common types of tea in the United States. There are many types of black tea including, Ceylon, Earl Grey, English Breakfast, and so on. Black tea is heart-healthy and supports the body’s protection against oxidative stress. For those who prefer a strong bold flavor while indulging in a snack, black tea may be for you.

Oolong tea

Oolong tea is also known as “black dragon” tea. It’s semi-oxidized and is always produced as a whole-leaf tea. The level of oxidation can affect the color, flavor, and aroma. There are many benefits to Oolong tea including antioxidant compounds which support the body’s protective measures against free radicals and oxidative stress.

White tea

New buds and young create delicious White tea. It is often light, delicate with a fruity flavor, and lower in caffeine than other teas. This tea supports the body’s response to inflammation among many other benefits. It can also support dental health because it contains fluoride, catechins, and tannins. Finally, it may support brain health. This is a perfect tea if you’re looking for something light in the afternoon. Visit your Los Angeles office pantry for some grab-and-go refreshments during a busy day and take a moment to indulge in White tea.

Herbal teas are some of the best types of teas for your health

Beloved among tea drinkers are herbal teas such as Chamomile, Ginger, Hibiscus, and Mint. These herbal teas support calm, and perhaps healthier sleep habits, aid digestion, help with inflammation, manage cholesterol, and boost liver health. They are restorative in nature and ideal to enjoy late in the day.

Types of teas you can drink throughout the day

Now that you see all the benefits of the different types of teas, go enjoy some.  Start your day with a healthy breakfast with green tea for a caffeine boost. During lunchtime, enjoy a hearty meal in your Los Angeles micro-market and try a light, delicate white tea for an afternoon pick-me-up. Finally, switch to an herbal tea to help wind down your day. Premier VendGroup can offer your Los Angeles workplace traditional and gourmet teas through our office coffee and tea service. After all, we want you to be able to enjoy tea year-round!

Los Angeles Micro-Markets | Vending | New products | 2022 Goals | Los Angeles Office Pantry

Reaching for our goals in 2022

We can agree that 2021 was a busy year with ups and downs for Los Angeles businesses. But, there was so much to be thankful for, which we shared in our end of November blog. With this year coming to an end and the arrival of 2022, we wanted to share some of the goals that we’ve set for ourselves. We’re big believers in setting our goals and intention for the coming year. After all, it helps us remain focused on what we want to achieve.

Grow our micro-markets 2022

Los Angeles Micro-Markets | Vending | New products | 2022 Goals | Los Angeles Office Pantry

One of our biggest goals in 2022 is to grow our micro-markets. First, we want to increase the number of Los Angeles micro-markets we open next year compared to the number we opened in 2021. We believe more businesses are open to the idea of creating a self-sustained cafe in the break room. More importantly, employees can stay in the office for lunch or snack breaks thereby increasing overall office productivity. Second, we want to optimize the product mix in every market. Our goal is to find the “perfect” mix of products and show our Los Angeles customers that the micro-market is a great option to get fresh food, snacks, and beverages. Ideally, our customers will enjoy the convenience of accessing refreshments in the break room and saving money by avoiding pricey restaurants.

Roll out new products

We are thrilled to bring our customers the latest new products in our micro-markets, Los Angeles vending services,  and pantry service. In addition, we will look at introducing more healthy options. Our team constantly gets feedback from customers on new products they’d like to try. Adding new products such as Tastykake and Ghirardelli Chocolates keep our customers coming back for more. In short, we are laser-focused on getting new products to customers quickly. We are committed to improving the product rollout process so that customers get new products in a matter of a few weeks rather than months.

Office pantry sets you apart

We want to help businesses make their employees feel welcome and comfortable in the office in 2022. Therefore, we’re recommending that businesses consider a Los Angeles office pantry service.  It allows you to offer employees convenient free grab-and-go refreshments in the office. And, it will help Los Angeles employees stay fueled and energized during the workday. It’s tough to find good talent at this time. However, an office pantry service is a great perk to enhance your recruiting and retention plans, and stand out from your competitors.

Upgrade our fleet of trucks in 2022

Premier VendGroup is always investing in technology. In fact, we upgraded our credit card readers to 4G earlier this year. In 2022, we will upgrade our fleet of trucks to 100% electric. We look forward to the cost savings of not having to add fuel to our trucks. More importantly, we’re excited about having a positive impact on the environment. Stay tuned as we’ll have more information in the coming year about this announcement.

We eagerly look forward to 2022 and all that it has to bring. We wish you and your family and community a healthy, happy, and safe new year.

Coffee | Los Angeles Coffee Services | Coffee machines |

5 popular coffee drinks for your Los Angeles office

Coffee is an absolute must for many employees in their Los Angeles break room, especially at the start of the day. As a matter of fact, a good cup can set the tone for the entire day. Most importantly, it has become a staple in the office. That is to say, most Los Angeles workplaces need to offer employees a cup of joe in the break room. Many people have a favorite when it comes to the type of coffee they like to drink. In this blog, we’ll look at five of the most popular drinks.

Fuel your Los Angeles office with these favorite coffee drinks 

Espresso

Combine a wide variety of coffee beans and roast degrees to make this bold creation. Basically, you force a small amount of nearly boiling water through finely-ground coffee beans.  In fact, espresso is the base for many coffee drinks including lattes and cappuccinos. Enjoy an espresso buzz in the office with our state-of-the-art brewers.

Cappuccino

This espresso-based drink is prepared with steamed milk or cream in some cases. The espresso portion is poured into the bottom of the cup, followed by the hot milk. Use the espresso machine wand to prepare the milk. The top third of the drink consists of milk foam. Indulge in a flavorful cappuccino in your Los Angeles break room. And, be sure to check that you’re not sporting a milk mustache around the office!

Latte

Coffee | Los Angeles Coffee Services | Coffee machines |

Use espresso and steamed milk to make this delicious frothy beverage. However, for those who are lactose intolerant, you can use soy, coconut, or almond milk alternatives. Some variations include adding sweet syrups in a variety of flavors including, vanilla, caramel, and chocolate. The difference between a latte and a cappuccino is that a latte has way more steamed milk and a light layer of foam.  In addition, a latte is more blended while a cappuccino is more distinctly layered.  With our Los Angeles office coffee service, you’ll feel like there’s a barista in your break room.

Americano

Dilute an espresso with hot water and you’ve got an Americano. The strength of an Americano depends on the number of espresso shots and the amount of water added. Customize it to your liking and enjoy it with a healthy snack through our office pantry service.

Cold-brew coffee is gaining popularity

Ah yes, who doesn’t enjoy a cold refreshing drink? A cold brew is created with a higher coffee to water ratio than regular drip coffee. It has become more popular in recent years as people have discovered the joy of drinking a strong cold brew. Best of all, this beverage is ideal for those who want to cut caffeine since it contains less caffeine than drip coffee.

Premium Los Angeles coffee in your workplace

In short, employees will get a better experience with Premier VendGroup’s Los Angeles office coffee services. Our single-cup brewers give you the ability to customize your drink. However, if you’re looking for the freshest cup of joe, try our bean-to-cup brewers such as Cafection, Blavilor Bonamat, or the Starbucks Serenade. For those of you who need pots of coffee for your Los Angeles employees, our traditional brewers are a great option. And, you won’t be lacking in premium coffee as we offer a range of popular name brands. Bottom line, if you’re in need of a full-service coffee solution for your Los Angeles company, we’re here for you.

Los Angeles Micro-Market | Los Angeles Vending | Healthy Refreshments | Office Coffee Service

A micro-market upgrade is an ideal solution for Los Angeles area client

Recently a client in Southern California asked us to upgrade their traditional vending service to a Los Angeles micro-market. The client moved to a larger facility and wanted only vending services at first. However, they started to realize that it was hard to satisfy 400 employees with just snack and drink vending machines. In other words, they had outgrown the vending service and needed an upgrade. Therefore, they settled for a full micro-market solution. In short, with the current employee retention challenges, we agreed that a micro-market upgrade would benefit this client.

What is a Los Angeles micro-market?

Since some of you may not be familiar with a mico-market, here’s a brief overview. A micro-market is an unattended retail space. It is filled with a variety of foods, snacks, and drinks that can be customized for your workplace. Furthermore, we can include plenty of healthy choices as that has become popular among Los Angeles area offices. Employees can buy food, drinks, and snacks at a self-serve kiosk with credit cards, mobile wallets, or cash. Most importantly, it is open all day for your convenience. Our team monitors the micro-market to make sure that popular products are in stock. In addition, we also introduce trendy new items from time to time to keep the product mix interesting.

Benefits of a micro-market upgrade

Los Angeles Micro-Market | Los Angeles Vending | Healthy Refreshments | Office Coffee Service

 

Our Los Angeles client will find many benefits by upgrading from traditional vending to a micro-market space. Here are a few.

  • The micro-market can offer more refreshments to a large number of employees.
  • Employees will enjoy a variety of products.
  • Employees can stay on-site to enjoy entree-sized meals for breakfast and lunch.
  • The employer can credit employees’ micro-market accounts as part of their incentive programs.

Take the micro-market upgrade a step further with office coffee service

If you’re looking to stand apart from employers in your area then you may want to consider adding a Los Angeles office coffee service. It’s an ideal solution to pair with your micro-market. Employees can enjoy premium coffee throughout the day. We offer traditional ground, single-cup, and bean-to-cup solutions with brand-name coffee products for everyone in the workplace to enjoy. Adding office coffee service to a micro-market can help strengthen your company’s retention and recruiting efforts. After all, it shows employees that they are valued and appreciated.

A customer-first approach

Premier VendGroup is ready to work with your team to help you find the refreshment services that make sense for your Greater Los Angeles business. Our approach is to first listen and learn and then craft a solution that works for you. As a 60+ year family-owned business, we have always put our customers first. It’s the only way we know how to run the business.

5 healthy beverages for your Los Angeles office

We’re all looking to improve our health and what we put in our bodies. In fact, more Los Angeles companies are requesting healthy options in the workplace. In addition to healthy food options, they are also requesting healthy beverage choices. Therefore, we’re dedicating this blog post to sharing our top 5 healthy beverages to keep you fueled throughout the workday.

Water

It may seem old-fashioned to some but drinking water is important to your overall health. Water carries nutrients and oxygen to your cells, flushes bacteria from your bladder, aids digestion, normalizes blood pressure, and much more. According to experts, most people should drink about four to six cups of water each day. However, water intake is different for each person. Therefore, you should check with your doctor to make sure you are drinking enough water. Premier VendGroup offers Los Angeles businesses custom water filtration services to provide your office with pure, clean drinking water through our plumbed-in, floor, and countertop units.

Green Tea

While there are a number of healthy teas, we’re going to focus on green tea. It has many health benefits. It boosts brain function, aids in fat loss, and lowers the risk of heart disease. Plus, it’s an ideal soothing drink when you’re having a rough day and need some downtime to relax. We offer green (and other teas) through our Los Angeles office coffee and tea service.

Coffee

Healthy Beverages | Los Angeles Micro-Markets | Los Angeles Office Pantry | Refreshment Solutions

Drinking coffee in moderation can be healthy. Visit almost anywhere in the world, and coffee and tea are two of the most served beverages. Drinking coffee can lower the risk of type 2 diabetes and certain neurological diseases, protect again depression, and more. Moreover, who doesn’t love the smell of a fresh cup of coffee in the morning?  Premier VendGroup offers a Los Angeles office coffee service whether you’re looking for traditional ground, single-cup, or bean to cup brewers. Our team will work with you to customize our coffee service to meet your needs.

Blended Juice

For those who find it difficult to eat enough vegetables or fruits throughout the day, consider drinking blended juice for additional nutrients. Blended juice incorporates the whole fruit and vegetable including the skin and fiber. The texture is thicker, almost like a smoothie, and you’re getting the full benefits of that fruit or vegetable. Check out our Los Angeles office pantry and micro-market services for juice options we can bring to your office.

Milk

As old-fashioned as it seems, milk is filled with essential nutrients that benefit health including calcium, protein, potassium, and more.  Drinking milk helps build strong bones, repairs muscle, and maintains the immune system. So go ahead, visit your Los Angeles micro-market and grab a cold bottle of milk to add to your cereal or enjoy it as is.

Supporting your goals

To sum up, more businesses are focusing on employee health. They understand that healthier employees are happier, more productive, and take fewer sick days. Premier VendGroup is committed to supporting Los Angeles businesses by providing healthy beverages in the break room.

Optimizing our Los Angeles micro-markets

At Premier VendGroup, we’re always exploring new ideas to enhance our refreshments services. That’s why we recently welcomed Colin to the team. His job is to use data to improve our micro-market products and sales in Los Angeles and Southern California.  Ideally, these improvements will offer our customers a better experience. And, we’ll have less waste and fewer expired products at each micro-market. By using data, we will improve the customers’ experience at our micro-markets.

What are micro-markets?

Micro-markets are unmanned retail spaces where customers can buy a variety of foods, drinks, and snacks. Our team installs the micro-market at the client’s workplace in the break room.  We also install cameras for security purposes. Customers purchase products at a self-checkout kiosk using credit cards, mobile wallets, or cash. Micro-markets are open 24/7. This makes them convenient for customers no matter how early or late they work. The business benefits because employees can eat meals and snacks on-site. And, this can lead to increased productivity. Employees can save money because they don’t have to leave work to buy refreshments. Micro-markets are a big and important part of our business. Therefore, we must improve them for our customers.

3 ideas to optimize Los Angeles micro-markets

Micro-Markets | Los Angeles Micro-Markets | Refreshment Solutions

It’s important that we test and try different ideas to enhance our micro-markets.  Here are three we can implement now.

  • Review products that are not selling and replace them with a different product in the same category. For instance, if regular milk is not selling, we may replace it with another nut-based milk.
  • Colin will build relationships with the Premier VendGroup route drivers to get their feedback. After all, they interact with customers every week. They know which products customers are excited about and buy. The route drivers get this feedback while stocking the micro-market.
  • Colin will keep his ‘finger on the pulse’ and test products that the general public is excited about.

Data-driven decisions for Los Angeles micro-markets

In addition, we will also look at demographics to further optimize our product mix. For example, we looked at some data and found a few interesting insights. We noticed that businesses with Millenials and Generation Z employees want energy drinks in their micro-markets. However, businesses with Generation X employees want tea, enhanced water, or naked juices. For this second group, we may offer tea through our Los Angeles office coffee services.  In the future, we will look at more of this type of data to customize each micro-market to that particular group of customers.

To keep the micro-markets exciting for our customers, we’re also looking to introduce new products. In fact, we often add new items to our Los Angeles vending and other services. Our inspirations come from many places. We look at products that are “trendy” or popular at the moment. We will also look at local and healthy products to add to the mix since we serve Los Angeles and Southern California.

Benefits of a tailored approach

A tailored approach to each of our micro-markets has many benefits.

  • We provide a better experience for customers because we’ll offer the products they want.
  • We decrease the number of expired products in the market. No one likes to see expired food when they are shopping.
  • Ideally, we will increase sales and revenue for our company.

Enhance the customer experience

To sum up, our goal is to provide customers with the best mix of foods, snacks, and drinks in the micro-market.  We know that we can increase the levels of engagement in the micro-markets if we optimize our product mix. At end of the day, it’s all about providing the best customer experience.

Celebrate Better Breakfast Month in your Los Angeles office

September is #BetterBreakFastMonth and we’re here for it. That’s why we’ve dedicated this blog to the importance of breakfast. After all, it is the most important meal of the day. In fact, eating breakfast can help your heart, digestion, bones, and more. Furthermore, it helps boost your energy levels and keep your metabolism up for the day.

An “eggtastic” breakfast

Eggs are one of the most popular breakfast foods and can be prepared in many ways. Whether you like them scrambled, hard-boiled, or sunny side up, they are delicious and nutritious. You can enjoy eggs in our Los Angeles micro-market in a breakfast burrito or sandwich to get a protein kick to keep you full and satisfied throughout the morning. In the near future, we are looking to expand our breakfast offerings including more egg options.

You don’t need to be Greek to enjoy yogurt

Los Angeles Refreshment Solutions | Breakfast | Micro-Markets | Office Pantry Service | Office Coffee Service | Los Angeles Vending

If you’re looking for lighter fare, why not try a yogurt and granola breakfast? It’s high in protein, calcium, vitamins, and probiotics, and great for gut microbiota.  Through our office pantry service, you can enjoy the health benefits that come with a yogurt and granola breakfast. However, if don’t want granola, then try our cereals with fresh milk. Your employees can enjoy convenient grab-and-go options like cereal, parfait, oatmeal, and granola through our Los Angeles office pantry service. Most importantly, it’s a great way to show busy employees that they are valued and appreciated in the office.

Fruit is a great option

For those looking for lighter fare in the morning, fruit is a refreshing way to start your day.  Eating fruits has many benefits. They are a source of essential vitamins and minerals and are high in fiber. Fruits provide many health benefits and can reduce a person’s risk of developing heart disease, inflammation, and diabetes. Get your fill of fruits at the office through our Los Angeles food vending machines.

Breakfast has its benefits

Breakfast is such an essential part of the day. And, if you’re still not convinced, these reasons may help change your mind.

  • Give your body plenty of essential nutrients.
  • Boost brainpower and improve concentration.
  • Prevent weight gain and avoid higher-calorie foods later in the day.
  • Eggs are packed with protein, vitamins, and antioxidants which help you maintain healthy skin.
  • Increase your energy and avoid a mid-morning slump.

Is it even a complete breakfast without a hot beverage?

In our humble opinion, a delicious breakfast should include a soothing hot beverage. Indulge in your breakfast with a gourmet cup of coffee or tea with our Los Angeles office coffee and tea service. We customize our service to meet the needs of your Los Angeles office whether you’re looking for traditional,  single-cup, or bean-to-cup coffee brewers.

To sum up, at Premier VendGroup, we love breakfast!  Set aside time in the morning to enjoy it at the office and fuel up for your day.

Los Angeles Break Room | Micro-Market | Office Coffee Service | Office Pantry Service | Refreshment Solutions

Create a better break room in your Los Angeles office

Your Los Angeles break room is one of the most important spaces in your office.  It’s the place where employees can get away from their work, connect with others, or just relax and enjoy downtime. That’s why it’s important to create a functional and inviting space that works for employees. We’ve dedicated this blog with ideas to help you create your ideal break room.

Keep the break room separate

The break room and the office workspace should be as separate as possible. This will give employees the feeling that the spaces are truly separate and they can relax and focus on reenergizing rather than focusing on work-related issues. If you have a small office, try using room dividers or a wall of plants to create separate spaces. Furthermore, keep in mind that not everyone comes to the break room to socialize. Therefore, you may want to ensure there is a quiet space for employees to practice mindful meditation, read, or just relax.

Yes, the furniture in the break room matters

When designing your break room, make sure you include comfortable furniture. No one likes to sit on a hard plastic or wood chair in the office. Instead, you can furnish the space with a sofa, loveseats, or reclining chairs to create a relaxing environment. In addition to furniture, you may want to consider personalizing the space with company branding, as well as photos.  Images from past employee appreciation events, BBQs, corporate retreats, and team lunches are perfect to include. Promoting a close-knit team environment can also bolster your talent retention and recruiting efforts. Finally, consider adding a TV to share company-related videos, major sporting events, or Netflix shows for employees to enjoy.

Refreshments are important in the break room

Los Angeles Break Room | Micro-Market | Office Coffee Service | Office Pantry Service | Refreshment Solutions

Food in the break room is essential. Otherwise, why even have a break room?  Whether employees are enjoying lunch, snacks, or beverages, great refreshments are important considering the amount of time they spend in the office. Let’s look at some refreshments solutions that go beyond Los Angeles vending machines, which may be right for your office.

Micro-Markets

Impress employees with the ultimate break room refreshment solution with a Los Angeles micro-market. It’s an open-air cafe that provides a wide range of fresh food entrees, tasty snacks, and refreshing beverages all customized to your needs. Employees will be able to purchase products at a self-checkout kiosk using credit cards, mobile wallets, or cash. Our team remotely monitors the micro-market to keep it stocked with your favorite products.

Office Coffee

Elevate the coffee break in your office with our Los Angeles office coffee service. We bring you popular national brands of coffee as well as gourmet options. Whether you’re looking for traditional or specialty coffee services, we can help. Premier VendGroup’s coffee brewers come with touchless technology so you can make coffee using your mobile phone.

Office Pantry

This employee perk allows the business to pay for the refreshments and provides them to employees free of charge. We bring grab-and-go refreshments all customized to your office’s needs, including healthy options. A Los Angeles office pantry service will show your employees that they are valued and appreciated. Make your business stand out from others with this unique employee perk.

Add activities & games

To add some fun into the break room, provide a space for games. They don’t have to be over the top. Ping pong table, board games, a foosball table can help your employees connect and create social bonds over fun recreation activities.

To sum up, employees spend 8+ hours a day in the office. Why not make it enjoyable for them by creating a break room space that will help them relax, refuel, and rejuvenate, and come back to work fresh.
