The Healthy Shift: Better-for-You Options in Self-Service Retail
Wednesday, 9 July, 2025

Consumers today want more than just quick snacks—they want smarter, healthier choices that support wellness goals and taste great. In this episode of Retail on the Go, we're joined by the team from Olipop to talk about how better-for-you beverages and snacks are reshaping vending and micro market strategies. Cathy Horgan (VP, Food Service & On Premise) and Cassie Hardick (National Account Manager) share what they're seeing in the field—from generational buying trends and the shift away from sugary sodas to the rising demand for gut-health-friendly, functional products. They also dig into how operators can start small, test smarter, and keep product mixes fresh with seasonal offerings and sleek new formats. Whether you're ready to try healthier SKUs or just starting to explore your options, this episode is packed with insights for modern self-service operators. 🔗 Learn more about Olipop: https://www.drinkolipop.com 📩 Contact the Olipop team: foodservice@drinkolipop.com
