Whether you’re outfitting a vending machine at the GM Corvette Assembly Plant, Western Kentucky University’s campus facilities, or a Medical Center HealthPark location, FitPick® stands out effortlessly.

Fit Pick® employs eye-catching stickers to mark the vending machine slots filled with Fit Pick® approved snacks, a particularly valuable feature in Bowling Green where your workforce spans automotive shift workers, healthcare professionals, and college students who need quick, informed nutrition choices between demanding schedules. More prominent clings and stickers offer detailed insights into the Fit Pick™ nutritional standards.

Fit Pick® labels distinguish between two sets of nutritional guidelines. The most popular adult criteria is the 35-10-35 standard (max 35% calories from fat, max 10% from saturated fat, and max 35% product weight from sugar). Additionally, Fit Pick® provides labels for items meeting The Alliance for a Healthier Generation’s Competitive Foods Guidelines.

Fit Pick®’s consistent labeling system is recognized across communities, counties, and states nationwide, enabling offices throughout Bowling Green—from the University Boulevard district to the Campbell Lane commercial corridor to the 31-W Bypass retail zones—to implement the same program seamlessly.

Our aim is to supply straightforward yet crucial nutritional information at the point of sale, empowering the diverse Bowling Green workforce and visitors—from manufacturing employees grabbing snacks between shifts to tourists exploring the National Corvette Museum—to make healthier snack choices informed by clear, “better for you” guidelines.

Health & Wellness Program

The FitPick® program recognizes the importance of functional foods,
acknowledging that snacks are often equivalent to meals.

VendVue is revolutionizing workplace vending across Bowling Green by dedicating ourselves to comprehensively understanding our clients’ wellness goals and needs. Whether you’re operating a facility in the Campbell Lane commercial district, supporting shift workers at manufacturing plants like the GM Corvette Assembly, or serving Western Kentucky University’s 20,000+ student population, we recognize that Bowling Green’s diverse workforce has distinct nutritional demands. While traditional vending machines offer up to 45 diverse products, including popular “pleasure foods” like candy bars, chips, and soft drinks, there’s a rising demand for healthier options particularly among healthcare employees at Medical Center HealthPark, university staff, and manufacturers seeking to support employee wellness during extended shifts. This shift towards health consciousness among consumers and organizations has inspired us to offer tailored solutions that reflect Bowling Green’s commitment to balancing productivity with employee health across the city’s dynamic hospitality, logistics, and education sectors. We’re delighted to collaborate with our clients throughout the Scottsville Road corridor, the Louisville Road area, and beyond through the personalized Fit Pick® program, catering to their wellness requirements with a variety of healthy alternatives that align with regional preferences and workforce needs.
