Lobbies — Smart, Grab-and-Go Convenience That Elevates First Impressions

What Is a Lobby Smart Market?

A lobby smart market—sometimes called a micro market, grab-and-go solution, or unattended retail kiosk—combines an AI-secured cooler with open shelving and touch-free payments. Guests tap a card or mobile wallet, select items, and walk away in under 30 seconds. Building staff stay focused on core duties while the system quietly delivers convenience around the clock.

Lobby Pain Points We Solve

• Long wait times: Visitors often arrive before staff can offer water, coffee, or quick snacks.

• After-hours traffic: Deliveries, late check-ins, and residents returning from work meet a closed café or empty vending machine.

• Brand perception: A barren lobby can feel uninviting; a curated market signals attention to tenant comfort.

Key Enhancements for Building Owners & Managers

• Zero staffing required — the smart market operates 24/7, eliminating the cost and scheduling hassles of a staffed café or coffee bar.

• Instant-access economics drive higher margins: people pay a premium for speed and proximity, yet pricing remains competitive with corner stores.

• Real-time data dashboards track sales by SKU, giving you hard numbers on lobby foot-traffic patterns and product preferences.

• Minimal footprint — fits in a 4- to 6-foot alcove with a single 120 V outlet; no plumbing or build-out needed.

Results You Can Expect

• Stronger first impressions that boost leasing tours and client visits.

• Reduced front-desk interruptions—fewer “Do you have coffee?” questions let staff focus on security and concierge tasks.

• Additional ancillary revenue if you choose a commission model; otherwise, it remains a cost-neutral amenity with transparent monthly reports.
