Already, today, my wife orders groceries from Fresh Direct and for special orders, in this case a specific coffee mixture she requested, Fresh Direct labels the coffee to confirm her special order with her name. How soon will it be before micro market operators will be able to do this, and perhaps encourage the removal of cafeterias by offering a smartphone app so that the consumer can both order and pay for their fresh food for next day delivery to their desk properly labeled?
The vending industry is changing, but it will take new marketing strategies coupled with micro markets to truly increase sales.
