Managed protein vending for gyms and fitness facilities

Zoruvend provides a managed vending machine for gym and fitness-facility operators who want to offer protein snacks and drinks without managing stock, supplier coordination, maintenance or repairs. We currently serve eligible Chennai facilities, subject to site assessment and agreement.

The challenge of running snacks inside a fitness facility

Offering snacks and drinks inside a fitness facility can create an additional operational layer. Product sourcing, inventory checks, expiry rotation and repair coordination can take attention away from the core member experience, and most of it doesn't get easier as you add locations.

  • Supplier sourcing

    Finding and vetting suppliers who can deliver a protein-focused assortment reliably.

  • Minimum order quantities

    Minimum order quantities that may not match the needs of an individual facility.

  • Inventory tracking

    Checking stock levels across shifts so the machine doesn't run empty or sit overstocked.

  • Expiry & damaged product

    Rotating stock before it expires and handling anything damaged in transit or storage.

  • Staff retail tasks

    Someone on your team ends up doing retail work that has nothing to do with coaching.

  • Repair coordination

    Booking service calls and coordinating repairs whenever the machine needs attention.

Zoruvend manages the work behind the machine

Zoruvend and the facility have clear responsibilities. Zoruvend manages how the managed vending service works including product sourcing, stocking, rotation, maintenance and repairs. The facility provides a suitable location and works with Zoruvend during placement assessment.

Designed for fitness-focused locations

Zoruvend is designed for facilities that want to offer convenient protein snacks and drinks without operating a separate snack counter. Each location is reviewed individually for suitability.

Independent gyms & gym chains

Individual gyms can be assessed for a managed vending placement based on the facility setup and operational suitability. Gym chains can enquire for one or more locations, and each proposed site is assessed individually before placement is agreed.
