SL-Tech Helps You Do It All With State-of-the-Art Vending Solutions
Active students with busy school schedules require convenient access and fast service of nutritious school meals and healthy snacks. These busy schedules sometimes make it difficult to serve breakfast and lunch to every student in the time allotted. SL-Tech's Healthy Vending Solutions make it possible to extend the hours, and the reach, of your cafeteria. Our vending programs allow you to provide students with a wide range of nourishing, reimbursable meals and à la carte items, and still adhere to all federal school meal requirements and your district's wellness policy.
SL-Tech's Healthy Vending Program provides the technology to retrofit existing vending machines to link to WebSMARTT for reporting and management. Students can access their meal accounts via PIN, ID card or touchpad scan, allowing the machines to capture all relevant accountability data.
Placing the machines in your school's common areas puts nutritious meal options directly in front of the students. They can easily access healthy, reimbursable meals and snacks, which increases participation, expands revenue opportunities and keeps more students on-campus.
SL-Tech offers vending solutions to meet the needs of school districts of all sizes. All the elements fit together seamlessly—from food packaging to reporting to the vending machine itself.
