TIDEWATER

Real food for the night shift

At 3am in Port Kells there is nothing open for kilometres — and a warehouse vending machine from 2009 isn’t dinner. Tidewater puts a fully stocked smart store on your floor: substantial food, cold drinks and real coffee, open every hour your site runs, restocked before it empties. Free to the facility.

AI smart freezer with frozen meals in a 24/7 industrial facility break room

Feed the crew, keep them on site

Every off-site food run on a night shift costs you twenty minutes of productivity and, over time, retention — food access is one of the small dignities crews remember when they compare employers.

Surrey, Delta, Richmond and Langley industrial parks run around the clock, but almost nothing near them does. An on-site smart store closes that gap without adding a cafeteria’s cost — or any cost at all.

  • Sized for shifts. High-capacity combo formats hold 750+ items so a full crew change doesn't empty the shelves.

  • Stocked like a meal. Bigger portions, energy drinks, protein and — at qualifying sites — a freezer with real meals.

  • No cash on the floor. Tap-only payment: nothing for anyone to carry, lose, or break in for.

  • Serviced on data. Telemetry tells us stock and machine health remotely — service happens before complaints do.

Most sites run the combo micro market in the break room, with a snack store or freezer added as volume proves out. Serving industrial parks across Surrey and Richmond.

Industrial sites — operations questions

Can it handle a 24/7 shift schedule?

That's exactly what it's built for. The store is open around the clock, restocking is scheduled from live inventory data, and high-volume sites get larger combo formats so the night shift never meets an empty shelf.

What do you stock for industrial crews?

Heartier than an office mix: bigger portions, energy drinks, cold brew, protein, jerky, substantial snacks — and for qualifying sites, a smart freezer with real frozen meals for the 3am break.

Our site is remote — will service actually happen?

Remote monitoring means we see stock levels and any fault without visiting, so trips are planned, not reactive. Your machine gets restocked on data, not on a route driver's memory.

Do workers need a special card or app?

No. Any tap-enabled debit or credit card, or a phone wallet, opens the door and pays. Nothing to register, nothing to download, no cash to carry on the floor.
