A Glimpse into the Benefits of Smart Pantry
Traditional Office Pantry
The common office pantry fulfils the role of providing workers with pantry items. However, an office pantry often becomes an underutilized space as it occupies valuable space in your workplace. The pantries might use up rooms that could be more effectively utilised for designated employee relaxation areas. Also, if the pantry is not well-maintained and organised, it has the potential to become a messy space, with items scattered without any proper organization.
Modern Smart Pantry
Leaving the old-style office pantry and modernising your company with advanced technologies, every square inch of your workplace can be well-utilised. A Smart Pantry with a fixed outer figure can optimize the usage of office space; with customizable inner slots can store abundant pantry items in a well-manner. It is also a method to encourage your employees back to the office, especially after the execution of hybrid mode in some of the companies. Employees are pulled into the company to finish their “credits” before it expires.
Traditional Office Pantry
Pantry management requires lengthy processes and plenty of manpower to streamline the execution. It necessitates you to deal with multiple tasks including seeking snack suppliers, preparing sufficient pantry items for employees and paying close attention to pantry stocks or conditions. It is beneficial for the employees, but it is a waste of manpower. If you are often troubled by short-staffed issues but with limited capital, you might need a better solution to optimal your valuable work teams on core business tasks.

Do not underestimate the expenses required to establish an office pantry. It is not only about the costs to restock your pantry items, it is about the sets of related expenses such as setup and renovation fees. Also, the setting of a traditional office pantry is inflexible and less adaptable to environmental change.

Traditional Office Pantry
Sometimes, pantry benefits can turn out to be a headache problem if a company has less control over the inventory. It is a challenge to manage and supervise the traditional office pantry in a setting where employees are given unrestricted access to snacks and beverages. It poses a risk for the adoption of abusive redemption habits among employees resulting in the rising of overhead expenses. The company needs to constantly restock the pantry whenever the stock is depleted.
Modern Smart Pantry
Smart Pantry accords a company with the authority to have better control over the pantry budget by assigning designated “credits” for employees to use. This could refrain from abusive redemption habits as employees are not allowed to claim pantry items once the credits are finished. Most importantly, the elimination of misuse habits can foster an equal environment as everyone is given the same “credits”. Additionally, Smart Pantry enables you to know more about your employees’ consumption behaviours. The detailed records are available on VECLOUD (Software system of Vechnology Smart Pantry). The supported data can assist in analysing your employees’ preferences.
