As one of the prominent Providence, Rhode Island Vending Companies, we recognize the unique nutritional needs of our city’s diverse workforce—from Brown University and RISD students pulling late nights in studios and libraries, to healthcare professionals at our major medical centers, to state government employees and service workers across Federal Hill, Wickenden Street, and downtown. Our healthy vending program offers fresh, nutritious snacking options, with machines stocked exclusively with 100% healthy and organic snacks that meet the wellness priorities of Providence’s health-conscious institutions and independent businesses. 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 in a city where wellness-focused workplaces and educational institutions set the standard.
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 students, medical staff, creative professionals, and other Providence workers make healthier choices throughout their busy days across the city’s neighborhoods and professional districts.
Whether you’re outfitting a vending machine in a Brown University dormitory, a healthcare facility along the Miriam Hospital corridor, or a bustling restaurant in Federal Hill, FitPick® delivers healthier options that resonate with Providence’s health-conscious workforce and diverse student population.
Fit Pick® employs eye-catching stickers to mark the vending machine slots filled with Fit Pick® approved snacks, making it instantly clear which options align with wellness goals—a feature particularly valuable in Providence’s medical institutions and RISD campus spaces where nutritional awareness runs high. More prominent clings and stickers offer detailed insights into the Fit Pick™ nutritional standards.
Fit Pick® labels distinguish between two sets of nutritional guidelines. 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.
Fit Pick®’s consistent labeling system is recognized across communities, counties, and states nationwide, enabling offices in different locations—from downtown Providence to suburban corridors—to implement the same program seamlessly.
Our aim is to supply straightforward yet crucial nutritional information at the point of sale, empowering Providence consumers across neighborhoods like College Hill, Wayland Square, and the Jewelry District to make healthier snack choices informed by clear, “better for you” guidelines that work for shift workers, students, and professionals alike.
FitPick® transforms healthy snacking across Providence’s diverse neighborhoods by clearly identifying “better for you” options, with nearly 700 tasty FitPick® approved products designed to meet the wellness preferences of the city’s mix of college students, medical professionals, and health-conscious workers. Whether in vending machines serving Brown University and RISD students on College Hill, hospital staff at Providence’s major medical centers, or professionals in the Financial District, this program effortlessly guides customers in choosing healthier items, removing any guesswork and streamlining the selection and purchase process for Providence’s on-the-go workforce.
The FitPick® program recognizes the importance of functional foods,
acknowledging that snacks are often equivalent to meals.
VendVue is revolutionizing workplace vending across Providence by dedicating ourselves to comprehensively understanding our clients’ wellness goals and needs. From the research laboratories and classrooms of Brown University and RISD to the fast-paced medical floors at Rhode Island Hospital and the administrative offices throughout the State House, Providence’s workforce demands snacking options that support sustained energy and health. While traditional vending machines offer up to 45 diverse products, including popular “pleasure foods” like candy bars, chips, and soft drinks, there’s a rising demand for healthier options that reflects the city’s growing wellness consciousness. This shift towards health consciousness among consumers and organizations has inspired us to offer tailored solutions specifically designed for Providence’s diverse employment landscape—whether serving college students burning the midnight oil on College Hill, healthcare professionals working demanding shifts, or creative professionals throughout the Jewelry District and Broadway Armory neighborhoods. We’re delighted to collaborate with our clients through the personalized Fit Pick® program, catering to their wellness requirements with a variety of healthy alternatives that align with Providence’s emerging culture of preventive health and sustainable nutrition.
