Fresh Healthy Vending Takes Aim At The Nation’s Looming Obesity Crisis

NowPublic.com:

Vending machines have traditionally been notoriously known as a “junk food haven.” For decades they have overflowed school campuses, business offices and shopping malls, giving customers convenient access to unhealthy foods. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), there has been a dramatic increase in obesity rates over the last 20 years, for both adults and children. In fact, they report that one-third of the nation’s adults are considered obese, and 17 percent of children are as well. This has lead to a lot of parents to re-think things like snacking.

“The dark days of junk food vending machines and its archaic and unhealthy choices are coming to an end,” explains Dan Negroni, President of Fresh Healthy Vending. “We want to change communities, quality of life, and give kids true and healthy snack options everywhere —they deserve them.”
