Subsidized Micro Markets for Added Employee Benefits
Looking to offer more value to your team? A subsidized micro market allows your business to cover part—or all—of the cost of items, creating an added workplace benefit.
A subsidized micro market can support employee wellness initiatives, improve recruitment and retention, and encourage employees to stay on-site while enhancing overall workplace culture.
Hybrid Micro Markets for Flexible Programs
A hybrid micro market combines a micro market setup with office pantry-style offerings, giving you the flexibility to provide both paid and employer-covered items. This allows you to provide select items to your employees at no cost, while still offering a full range of paid options. Hybrid micro markets are ideal for reward programs, employee incentives, wellness initiatives, and high-traffic workplaces that need flexible breakroom solutions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a micro market and a smart store?
