Tired of ‘Out of Order’? Fix Your Breakroom Fast

You know the scene.

Office employees frustrated while looking at an out-of-order coffee machine in the breakroom.
When the ‘Out of Order’ sign becomes part of the décor… there’s a better way.

It’s 9:15 AM. The team gathers in the breakroom, mugs in hand, ready for that first hit of caffeine… but there it is again — the dreaded “Out of Order” sign hanging on the coffee machine.

It’s been there all week! Tickets have been submitted. Emails have been sent. Facilities has flagged it. And yet… nothing.


The Breakroom Runaround

For many companies, this is business as usual.

One person manages your vending machines. Another team handles the coffee. A third oversees maintenance. And none of them seem to talk to each other.

So when you chase down the route driver, he shrugs:

“Sorry, not my area.”

Facilities submits another ticket, but the vendor’s response?

“Our techs are backed up. Maybe Friday.”

Meanwhile, your employees are making a third coffee run outside the office this week. Productivity slips, frustration rises, and costs pile up.


The Endless Snack Petition Becky Started 🍎🥨🍫

And it’s not just the coffee machine. Breakroom frustration runs deeper — especially when it comes to snack and beverage options.

An office breakroom with a frustrated female employee, Becky from accounting, holding a large petition clipboard with 100 signatures requesting healthier snack options. Several coworkers stand nearby looking amused and supportive. A vending machine is visible in the background stocked with outdated snacks, creating a humorous contrast. Bright, modern office setting, natural lighting, realistic photo style.
Becky’s petition has 100 signatures… but still the same chips from two years ago.

Take Becky from Accounting, for example. Fed up with the same chips and cookies for the last

two years, she organized a 100-signature petition asking for healthier options.


The result? Same. Exact. Snacks.

Why? Because many vendors operate with rigid product programs and layered approvals. Requests for new products often get lost between departments, leaving your employees frustrated and disengaged.


At Red Hawk Vending, we believe your breakroom should evolve with your team’s tastes, not stay stuck in 2022.


How Red Hawk Does It Differently

Red Hawk Vending’s model is built around one simple idea: your breakroom should just work.

We provide one dedicated account manager — your single point of contact — who oversees everything:

  • Vending machines ✅

  • Micro markets ✅

  • Coffee service ✅

  • Pantry programs ✅

  • Water service ✅

No bouncing between teams. No waiting on tickets. No “not my area.”

Your account manager’s job is simple: make sure every aspect of your breakroom exceeds expectations. Their performance is measured by your team’s satisfaction and NPS scores — not just how fast they close service tickets


Smarter Selections Backed by Data

Your employees’ preferences aren’t static — your breakroom shouldn’t be either.

Red Hawk leverages real-time data and analytics to stock exactly what your team wants:

  • Functional beverages like kombucha, green tea, cold brew, and coconut water

  • Healthier snacks like protein bars, nut packs, roasted chickpeas, and Greek yogurt

  • Indulgent favorites (because balance matters)

  • Rotating seasonal and cultural selections

We keep your offerings fresh, flexible, and data-driven — and we work with you to curate the perfect mix for your employees.
