For many businesses, 2020 proved to be a very difficult year. However, there were a number of industries that experienced growth, and we now refer to them as “pandemic-proof” businesses. One of those such brands is Naturals2Go.

Convenience and Safety Drive Profits

As a business program that offers healthy snacks and drinks while utilizing the latest technology in automated retail vending, Naturals2Go has experienced continued growth during the pandemic. Safety and convenience shot to the forefront of consumers minds in 2020, which directly impacted consumer behavior. Naturals2Go has always offered safe and convenient food options, which is exactly what consumers were looking for – now more than ever.

“It wasn’t just the safety feature of our contactless payment functionality, but vending overall was essential in supporting frontline health care workers and providing convenient food options for busy manufacturing and distribution centers,” said Lyndsey Wolfsmith, business consultant at Naturals2Go. “Because of the growth that the vending sector experienced, our owner-operators increased profits, and were able to avoid layoffs that were happening in other businesses,” Wolfsmith explained.

Avoiding High Overhead and Layoffs

The success that Naturals2Go owners experienced throughout the pandemic also highlights positive factors of the business, such as the lower risk involved when compared to other businesses. Overhead costs for nonessential brick-and-mortar businesses, such as commercial leases, employee payroll and other daily operational expenses, still had to be paid, even when the businesses were forced to shutter. With low overhead and an owner-operator model, Naturals2Go gives owners peace of mind, even during challenging times.

For over 35 years, Naturals2Go has been perfecting the operation of the vending-machine business, and during the pandemic that appreciation resulted in increased profits for owner. “Businesses across the country have turned to Naturals2Go operators to provide their staff and customers with a safe and convenient option for food that limits exposure and health risks.”
