How a Residential Micro-Market Brings Convenience to Your Phoenix, Tucson, or Mesa Apartment Building

Fresh and Easy Markets is changing the way residents enjoy snacks, drinks, and fresh foods. We achieve this by introducing a residential micro-market to your Phoenix, Tucson, or Mesa apartment building. This market offers a quick, easy, and modern shopping experience that is open 24 hours a day to meet the needs of residents in the building. Plus, any retail staff nearby can use it, adding more value.

Read on to see why property managers, developers, and apartment owners want this type of space.

What is a Residential Micro-Market?

Residential micro-markets can be considered small, self-serve convenience stores placed inside apartment complexes, and residential communities. Stocked with fresh and frozen food, snacks, and beverages, they go beyond what you would find in a Phoenix vending machine. And, we stock them with household items, toiletries, hygiene products, and more for maximum convenience.

Every market we build is well designed not just for the space, but also for how it will be used. High-end finishes and lighting are added to complete the look. This attention to detail will help attract tenants and set your apartment complex apart from others.

6 Benefits of a Residential Micro-Market

1. Convenience

3. Freshness

Fresh and Easy Markets puts freshness at the top of the list when it comes to pre-packed meals. It’s a great way to support health and wellness goals.

4. Community

Tenants can meet their neighbors in the micro-market and get a chance to be social. It’s a prime meeting spot since it’s so close, one everyone can enjoy.

5. Accessibility

A micro-market is open 24/7, letting residents shop whenever it’s convenient for them. This makes it easy to grab a snack or meal at any time of the day or night.

6. Product Selection

Residents have direct input and influence on what products are stocked in the micro-market.

How a Residential Micro-Market Works

As a self-serve store, micro-markets are always open, eliminating the need for staff and ensuring convenience for residents.  Security cameras inside the space make for a safe shopping experience.

Residents can browse, check nutrition labels, and more before they buy. When they’re ready to make a purchase, the kiosk allows them to easily scan the barcodes on all their items. A touchscreen display makes it simple to see the total and make a payment. The best part is that a Mesa micro-market takes all forms of payment, including credit cards and mobile wallets.

Four Must-Have Snacks for Phoenix Breakrooms

In the modern workplace, taking a break to recharge is vital. It’s even better when there’s something good to eat. With February being National Snack Food Month, it’s the right time to talk about Phoenix office breakroom snacks. If there aren’t delicious and healthy snack foods in your Phoenix, Tucson, or Mesa break area, it might be time for a revamp.

What tasty options should you include? Let Fresh & Easy Markets give you some time-tested ideas. Here are some of our favorites, perfect for your team when they’re on a break.

1. Veggie Slices with Guacamole

Embrace a healthier alternative to chips with veggie slices. These provide a satisfying crunch and are packed with vitamins and minerals. Swap out traditional dips for a delicious serving of guacamole. The combination is sure to please your taste buds and boost your health and wellness goals.

Veggie slices and guac may not be offered in a vending machine but be sure to look for these in your Phoenix micro-market or with your Tucson office pantry items.

2. Apples with Peanut Butter

Want a snack that will keep you feeling full and focused? Try apples and peanut butter. The apples give a natural sweetness and a great crunch while the peanut butter adds a creamy, savory element. The duo is not only delicious, but provides a healthy dose of fiber and many essential nutrients.

It’s great along with a tall glass of water, preferably filtered water from your  Mesa breakroom. Using a water filtration system boosts your company’s sustainability by removing single-use bottles from landfills. That’s a win-win.

3. Nuts with Dried Fruit Snacks

For a snack that’s both sweet and savory, consider a mix of nuts and dried fruits. This is a classic snack to offer your team for free with Mesa office pantry service or in a Tucson micro-market. It’s a great source of nutrition with healthy fats, protein, and antioxidants. Try it as a pick-me-up for those afternoon slumps.

4. Chocolate Snacks (for Indulging)

Chocolate is the perfect go-to snack to satisfy your sweet tooth. A small stash of dark chocolate is a delight and beats the sweets craving. It’s known for its antioxidant properties and mood-boosting benefits.

Chocolate, of any kind, pairs beautifully with Mesa breakroom beverages. Enjoy with a can of flavored sparkling water or a cup of gourmet office coffee.

Quality Snacks Make the Breakroom Better

As we celebrate Snack Food Month, let’s put the quality of the snacks we offer in the breakroom high on our list. After all, a well-fed team is a happy and productive team.
