Whether you’re equipping a vending machine at Bayhealth Hospital Kent Campus, Dover Air Force Base facilities, or the bustling Bay Road business district, FitPick® makes it simple to offer healthier snack options that resonate with Dover’s health-conscious workforce.

Fit Pick® uses distinctive stickers and clings to clearly mark vending machine slots containing Fit Pick® approved snacks, a feature particularly valuable in high-traffic locations like Delaware State University’s campus and downtown Dover where students and professionals need instant nutritional clarity at point of sale. More prominent signage provides detailed information about Fit Pick™ nutritional standards, ensuring that government employees, military personnel, and service workers in Dover can make informed choices quickly.

Fit Pick® labels distinguish between two sets of nutritional guidelines tailored to different audiences. The most widely adopted 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)—a benchmark that appeals to Dover’s professional workforce across Capital Green offices and state government buildings. Additionally, Fit Pick® provides labels meeting The Alliance for a Healthier Generation’s Competitive Foods Guidelines, particularly relevant for campus and youth-oriented venues throughout Dover.

Fit Pick®’s consistent labeling system is recognized across communities, counties, and states nationwide, meaning your vending machines at multiple Dover locations—whether in downtown, the Route 13 Commercial Corridor, or near Dover Downs—can all operate under the same trusted program seamlessly.

Our goal is to deliver clear, actionable nutritional information at the moment of purchase, empowering Dover’s diverse workforce—from military contractors to healthcare professionals to university students—to make better snack decisions backed by transparent, science-based “better for you” guidelines.

Health & Wellness Program

The FitPick® program recognizes that Dover’s diverse workforce—from state government professionals in Legislative Hall to active-duty personnel and contractors supporting Dover Air Force Base operations—relies on convenient, nutritious meal alternatives throughout their workday.
For healthcare workers at Bayhealth Hospital Kent Campus, university staff at Delaware State University, and shift workers across the Route 13 Commercial Corridor and Bay Road business district, quality snacking directly impacts sustained energy and focus.

VendVue is revolutionizing workplace vending by dedicating ourselves to comprehensively understanding our clients’ wellness goals and needs, particularly across Dover’s unique employment landscape. While traditional vending machines offer up to 45 diverse products, including popular “pleasure foods” like candy bars, chips, and soft drinks, there’s a rising demand for healthier options that align with the wellness priorities of Dover’s government agencies, military installations, educational institutions, and hospitality venues. This shift towards health consciousness among consumers and organizations—evident in downtown Dover, around the Capital Green district, and throughout North Dover’s growing commercial areas—has inspired us to offer tailored solutions. We’re delighted to collaborate with our clients through the personalized FitPick® program, catering to their wellness requirements with a variety of healthy alternatives.

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

  1. Regular Snacking: Dover’s busy workforce—from Legislative Hall staff to Delaware State University students to Bayhealth Hospital Kent Campus healthcare professionals—needs consistent energy throughout their shifts. Refuel your body with snacks several times a day to stay energized and focused during long workdays.
  2. Fiber and Protein Focus: Government employees managing demanding schedules and military personnel at Dover Air Force Base benefit from sustained energy; opt for cereal or granola bars with protein and fiber for longer-lasting fullness.
  3. Healthy Crunch: Whether you’re working near Route 13’s commercial corridor or catching a break downtown, satisfy mid-day cravings with low-fat, low-calorie options like pretzels or baked chips.
  4. Nutrient-Rich Choices: Choose pre-packaged fruits, vegetables, and salads for their high nutritional value, convenience, and great taste—ideal for students on campus and professionals at Capital Green offices who value quick, wholesome meals.
  5. Protein and Calcium: For a healthy boost, grab low-fat milk or yogurt to support your wellness during demanding Dover workdays.
  6. Moderate Sweet Treats: Enjoy sweet treats in moderation without completely cutting them out, especially during NASCAR event weekends and entertainment venue visits when cravings run high.
  7. Smart Cookie Alternatives: Animal crackers, fig bars, pop tarts, or graham crackers are lower-fat cookie options available in vending machines across downtown Dover and campus areas. Pair them with low-fat milk for added protein.
  8. Nuts for Nuts: Pick a pack of peanuts, almonds, or your favorite nuts for a blend of protein and fiber—a staple choice for Delaware State University students and government workers in the Wyoming and Camden neighborhoods.
  9. Stay Hydrated: Sometimes thirst is mistaken for hunger, so keep water close at hand during shifts or campus days.
  10. Balanced Snacking: Remember, variety, balance, and moderation are key to smart snacking throughout Dover’s diverse employment landscape.
