Betty Mills Introduces New Line of Office Snacks & Vending Solutions to Help Keep Employees Healthy and Boost Productivity

San Mateo, CA: The Betty Mills Company (www.bettymills.com), America's favorite janitorial supplies superstore introduces its new break room line of healthy and hearty office snacks, brewers and vending machines to help you keep your employees happy and your business prosperous.

Americans working in an office environment often struggle with lack of time to leave for meals during a hectic workday. For these employees, taking a break to venture out to a nearby restaurant is not an option; rather, they stay at their desks and eat while juggling other projects. Indeed, as a recent article points out, in today's corporate culture, "desktop dining" has quickly become an important new trend ("The New Office Eating Etiquette For Desktop Diners" available here). As a survey by the American Dietetic Association and ConAgra Foods (www.eatright.org) reveals, 67 percent of Americans eat lunch and 61% snack throughout the day at their desks ("Cubicle Culture Survey Report," Courtesy of the American Dietetic Association (ADA) and ConAgra Foods, 2005).

Since employees usually have limited snack choices in the office, they often choose available unhealthy and sugary treats from the nearest vending machine to satisfy their hunger. These unhealthy snacks, when paired with lack of exercising, can pave the road to obesity and other health issues. On the other hand, office snacks when chosen carefully can increase productivity as they provide the body with "a balanced source of energy." ("The Healthiest Foods for Office Snacking," by Sue Gilbert, available at http://diet.ivillage.com/issues/isnacks/0,,3bjm-1,00.html)

Stocking your break room and office vending machine with filling low-fat snacks not only improves the overall health of your employees but also has a positive effect on your company morale thus directly contributing to your marketing and public relations efforts. Indeed, a break room full of yummy and nutritious refreshments or a vending machine stocked with tasty treats can also work as non-monetary morale boosters urging employees to spend longer hours in the office.

As more and more employers recognize that happy employees get more done, there is an increased need for healthy and hearty office snacks. Responding to this growing demand, The Betty Mills Company, America's online janitorial supply superstore recently introduced a new line of office snacks, as well as brewing and vending solutions giving companies full-control over the snack selection of their lunchrooms and vending machines. "Today, employers can have complete control over what kind of snacks they want to supply their lunch rooms and vending machine with," said Victor Hanna, Managing Partner at Betty Mills. " In the past, vending machine operators determined the selection and pricing of the vending machine snacks. Customers stocking their lunch rooms and vending machines directly from Betty Mills' Break Room superstore will not only be in charge of the snack variety in their office but can also 'perk' their employees by providing the snacks at a low cost, or instead can utilize any profits from the snack vending for office parties, picnics or charity."

Betty Mills' Break Room Superstore offers a huge variety of customer favorite office snacks, teas and coffees as well as a great selection of kitchen appliances. Stock up the kitchen, and warm up those hearts today, with hearty and healthy snacks from Betty Mills®. Betty Mills currently offers $15 off (Coupon code: BMF4PR) every online order of $100 or more.
