Micro Market — Self-Service Retail for Offices and Factories

Quick answer

A micro market is a self-service retail space, not a single vending machine. It combines open shelves, smart fridges, lockers and a self-checkout kiosk, with the same cloud platform managing stock, sales and shrinkage.

Product overview

Micro markets serve sites with enough footfall to justify a small shop but not a staffed counter: offices, factories, hospitals and residential complexes. Customers browse open shelves and pay at a kiosk or through an account.

VendHarbor supplies the smart fridges, lockers, vending cabinets, payment modules and cloud platform. Layout, access control, product security and restocking are planned per site.

Buying and configuration questions

What is a micro market?
A micro market is a small self-service retail space with open shelves, fridges, lockers and a payment kiosk. It is not a single vending machine.
How big is a micro market?
Typical installations use 10–40 m² depending on the product range and the number of fridges or lockers.
How do customers pay?
Payment can be made at a self-checkout kiosk, by card or QR, or through a staff/resident account.
How is shrinkage controlled?
Access control, product tags, camera integration and account-based payment are combined per site. The right mix depends on the location and product value.
Who restocks the market?
The operator or facility team restocks shelves and fridges; the cloud platform reports stock and low-stock alerts.
Can it be installed in an office?
Yes. Micro markets are common in offices and factories with 100+ staff and a dedicated break area.
Do you provide the software?
Yes. The cloud platform covers stock, sales, shrinkage and alerts, and can integrate with access control and payment systems.
