Whether you’re placing healthy vending machines across Cleveland Clinic’s sprawling campuses, University Hospitals facilities, or the bustling food courts in Downtown Cleveland and the Warehouse District, FitPick® delivers the nutritional transparency your workforce demands.

Fit Pick® employs eye-catching stickers to mark the vending machine slots filled with Fit Pick® approved snacks, making it instantly recognizable to Cleveland’s healthcare professionals, university students, and office workers who prioritize wellness during their shifts. More prominent clings and stickers offer detailed insights into the Fit Pick™ nutritional standards, ensuring that visitors attending major events at Progressive Field or the Cleveland Convention Center can identify better-for-you options at a glance.

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, an especially valuable feature for biotechnology firms, professional services companies, and advanced manufacturing facilities throughout greater Cleveland seeking to support employee wellness programs.

Fit Pick®’s consistent labeling system is recognized across communities, counties, and states nationwide, enabling offices in University Circle, Tremont, Kamm’s Corners, and Asiatown to implement the same program seamlessly, regardless of neighborhood or business type.

Our aim is to supply straightforward yet crucial nutritional information at the point of sale, empowering Cleveland’s diverse workforce—from medical professionals to shift workers in ethnic neighborhoods and entertainment districts—to make healthier snack choices informed by clear, “better for you” guidelines.

Health & Wellness Program

The FitPick® program recognizes that Cleveland’s diverse workforce—from Cleveland Clinic healthcare professionals to University Hospitals staff and biotech researchers—demands nutritious snacking options that support their demanding schedules.
In a city where shift work is prevalent across our major medical institutions and manufacturing sector, quality nutrition isn’t a luxury; it’s essential fuel for productivity.

VendVue is revolutionizing workplace vending across Cleveland by dedicating ourselves to comprehensively understanding our clients’ wellness goals and the specific needs of our region’s workforce. While traditional vending machines offer up to 45 diverse products, including popular “pleasure foods” like candy bars, chips, and soft drinks, Cleveland’s health-conscious organizations—particularly those in University Circle’s biotech corridor and the professional services district downtown—are driving demand for healthier options. This shift towards wellness awareness among Cleveland’s employers and their teams has inspired us to offer tailored solutions that reflect our community’s values. We’re delighted to collaborate with our clients through the personalized Fit Pick® program, catering to the nutritional requirements of Cleveland’s professionals with a variety of healthy alternatives that fuel productivity in our city’s thriving healthcare, advanced manufacturing, and knowledge-based industries.

Here are the Top Ten Smart Snacking Tips to keep you energized and satisfied all day:

  1. Regular Snacking: Cleveland’s healthcare professionals at the Cleveland Clinic and University Hospitals work demanding shifts that require consistent energy throughout the day—refuel your body with snacks several times to stay sharp and focused.
  2. Fiber and Protein Focus: Whether you’re managing a long clinical rotation or attending classes at Case Western Reserve, opt for cereal or granola bars with protein and fiber for longer-lasting fullness that carries you through your day.
  3. Healthy Crunch: Satisfy mid-day cravings with low-fat, low-calorie options like pretzels or baked chips—perfect for quick breaks between meetings in downtown Cleveland’s bustling financial and professional services sector.
  4. Nutrient-Rich Choices: Choose pre-packaged fruits, vegetables, and salads for their high nutritional value, convenience, and great taste—especially important for visitors and locals navigating Cleveland’s expanding entertainment districts and Warehouse District venues.
  5. Protein and Calcium: For a healthy boost, grab low-fat milk or yogurt to support sustained energy during your workday in Cleveland’s advanced manufacturing, biotechnology, or professional service sectors.
  6. Moderate Sweet Treats: Enjoy sweet treats in moderation without completely cutting them out, particularly during major events at Progressive Field or Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse when foot traffic spikes across downtown.
  7. Smart Cookie Alternatives: Animal crackers, fig bars, pop tarts, or graham crackers are lower-fat cookie options that appeal to diverse tastes across Cleveland’s vibrant ethnic neighborhoods and Asiatown communities.
  8. Nuts for Nuts: Pick a pack of peanuts, almonds, or your favorite nuts for a blend of protein and fiber—a staple choice in vending machines throughout University Circle and Ohio City’s thriving cultural districts.
  9. Stay Hydrated: Sometimes thirst is mistaken for hunger, so keep water close at hand, especially during Cleveland’s convention center events and year-round festival season that draws visitors seeking quick refreshment.
  10. Balanced Snacking: Remember, variety, balance, and moderation are key to smart snacking in a city where healthcare, education, and diverse workforces demand accessible nutrition throughout the day.
