Simplifying Healthy Choices

As one of the prominent Memphis, Tennessee Vending Companies, we understand the unique health and wellness needs of our city’s diverse workforce. From the round-the-clock logistics teams at FedEx World Hub and Memphis International Airport to healthcare professionals at St. Jude and hospitality workers across Beale Street and Downtown Memphis, our employees work demanding schedules that often leave little time for balanced nutrition. Our healthy vending program addresses this reality by offering fresh, nutritious snacking options specifically curated for Memphis’s active service and distribution sectors, with machines stocked exclusively with 100% healthy and organic snacks. 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 the corporate campuses in East Memphis and the smaller hospitality operations throughout the Entertainment District and South Main Arts District.

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. Whether your team works in manufacturing, education at the University of Memphis, or the fast-paced tourism and entertainment sectors that drive Memphis’s economy, this initiative showcases a selection of snacks, beverages, and foods that conform to rigorous standards on calories, fat, sugar, and sodium, helping your workforce make healthier choices during their shifts.

Whether you’re placing healthy vending machines in FedEx World Hub distribution centers, hospitality venues along Beale Street, or corporate offices throughout East Memphis, FitPick® delivers a straightforward approach to nutritional transparency.

Fit Pick® uses eye-catching stickers to clearly mark vending machine slots containing Fit Pick® approved snacks, with prominent clings and detailed information cards explaining the Fit Pick™ nutritional standards—critical for Memphis’s workforce, which includes significant numbers of shift workers in logistics and healthcare who grab quick meals during breaks.

Fit Pick® employs two distinct nutritional labeling systems. The most widely adopted adult standard is the 35-10-35 guideline (maximum 35% calories from fat, maximum 10% from saturated fat, and maximum 35% product weight from sugar). Fit Pick® also provides labeling aligned with The Alliance for a Healthier Generation’s Competitive Foods Guidelines, making it easier for Memphis employers—from University of Memphis facilities to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital—to meet their wellness objectives.

Fit Pick®’s uniform labeling approach is recognized and implemented consistently across neighborhoods from Midtown to Germantown to Cordova, allowing Memphis-area companies with multiple office locations to roll out a unified healthy vending machine program seamlessly.

Our mission is to provide clear, accessible nutritional information at the point of purchase, enabling Memphis employees and visitors—whether they’re entertainment industry workers on Beale Street or warehouse staff near the airport—to confidently select snacks aligned with “better for you” standards.

FitPick® transforms healthy snacking across Memphis’s bustling logistics hubs, entertainment venues, and hospitality establishments by clearly identifying “better for you” options, with nearly 700 FitPick® approved products tailored to the city’s diverse workforce. Whether your employees work the demanding 24/7 shifts at the FedEx World Hub, staff the hospitals and medical centers throughout East Memphis, or serve guests in Beale Street’s vibrant entertainment district, this program effortlessly guides customers toward healthier choices from vending machines, removing guesswork and streamlining selection for Memphis’s health-conscious workers and visitors alike.

Health & Wellness Program

The FitPick® program recognizes the importance of functional foods,
acknowledging that snacks are often equivalent to meals.

VendVue is revolutionizing workplace vending across Memphis by dedicating ourselves to comprehensively understanding our clients’ wellness goals and needs. The city’s robust logistics and distribution workforce—centered around the FedEx World Hub and distribution centers throughout East Memphis and Cordova—demands access to nutritious snacks that support sustained energy during extended shifts and demanding schedules. While traditional vending machines offer up to 45 diverse products, including popular “pleasure foods” like candy bars, chips, and soft drinks, Memphis’s health-conscious hospitality, healthcare, and service professionals are seeking smarter nutrition options. The shift towards wellness is especially evident in Midtown’s growing corporate sector, near St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, and throughout our expanding downtown business district, where employers recognize that employee nutrition directly impacts productivity and retention. This rising demand for healthier options has inspired us to offer tailored solutions that align with Memphis’s dynamic workforce needs. 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 reflect the values and lifestyles of our community’s diverse professionals and shift workers.

Here are the Top Ten Smart Snacking Tips to keep you energized and satisfied all day:

  1. Regular Snacking: Memphis’s around-the-clock logistics workforce at the FedEx World Hub and distribution centers across Cordova and East Memphis knows that consistent energy fuels long shifts—refuel your body with snacks several times a day to stay alert and satisfied.
  2. Fiber and Protein Focus: Whether you’re working hospitality hours in the Beale Street Entertainment District or managing back-to-back shifts in healthcare and manufacturing, opt for cereal or granola bars with protein and fiber for longer-lasting fullness.
  3. Healthy Crunch: Satisfy mid-shift cravings with low-fat, low-calorie options like pretzels or baked chips—especially important for Memphis’s service industry workers who need sustained energy without the crash.
  4. Nutrient-Rich Choices: Downtown Memphis professionals and those working near University of Memphis or St. Jude benefit from convenient access to pre-packaged fruits, vegetables, and salads for their high nutritional value and quick nutrition.
  5. Protein and Calcium: For a sustained energy boost during long logistics or entertainment sector shifts, grab low-fat milk or yogurt.
  6. Moderate Sweet Treats: In a city known for its music and hospitality culture, enjoy sweet treats in moderation without completely cutting them out of your day.
  7. Smart Cookie Alternatives: Animal crackers, fig bars, pop tarts, or graham crackers are lower-fat cookie options that work well for Memphis’s cash-preferring, on-the-go workforce—pair them with low-fat milk for added protein.
  8. Nuts for Nuts: Pick a pack of peanuts, almonds, or your favorite nuts for a blend of protein and fiber that keeps you powered through shifts in Bartlett warehouses or Midtown offices.
  9. Stay Hydrated: In Memphis’s warm climate and during intensive shift work, sometimes thirst is mistaken for hunger—keep water close at hand throughout your day.
  10. Balanced Snacking: Remember, variety, balance, and moderation are key to smart snacking that sustains the Memphis workforce.
