Frictionless Campus Food Experiences

May 15, 2024 · Read Time: 1 Min

As life on campus continues to evolve, there's one thing that remains constant: we all crave delicious, convenient and fresh food to keep us going throughout the day.

Frictionless Campus Food Convenience

InReach can enhance your on-campus dining services by providing a range of quick, scalable, and innovative solutions. Students and faculty can avoid the long lines so often seen in the cafeteria and grab a quick coffee or salad via high-tech vending.  With InReach, fresh, healthy, and convenient food is always available on campus.

Convenience Is Required

Life on campus is fast-paced. There usually isn’t much free time between classes, studying, and other activities, so food must be convenient if it is going to work for everyone. Unfortunately, some campus food service companies fall a little short of that mark, failing to embrace the modern technologies available today that make getting food easy for students and faculty.

If your current campus food services aren’t getting the job done, or if you’d simply like to see more of what is out there on the market today, InReach is ready to chat. Our solutions make life easier for everyone, can save money, and will give your school a reputation for staying on the cutting edge of campus life.

Modern Payment Solutions

The days of passing dollar bills back and forth in exchange for goods and services are long gone. Now, payment should be as easy, fast, and secure as possible, and that’s one of the things we focus on with our frictionless campus food experiences. Getting food on campus when InReach is involved is as easy as checking out at a kiosk or using an app on your phone to complete the transaction. We also support the use of student cards as a form of payment so offering from InReach can easily be integrated into your existing system.

This modern approach to payments for food services also helps the school better manage things on the back end. Reports on food service performance will be detailed, accurate, and easy to generate, and eliminating the use of cash is always a great way to cut down on mistakes and losses.

Vending Machines Done Right

Campus food is about much more than just vending machines, but that doesn’t mean these machines need to be banished to history and forgotten. In fact, a modern vending machine can still play a vital role in campus food service, as it doesn’t need to be staffed and can be available for students and faculty at all hours of the day and night.

Our vending solutions don’t look much like the vending machines of the past. Our options operate with card readers and contactless payment points, so it’s just as easy to buy from a machine as it is to get food from any other outlet on campus. While long-time vending machine staples are still present, healthier options, such as fresh salads, can also be included.
