Philadelphia, PA, December 13, 2010 – ARAMARK Refreshment Services, LLC, a leader in workplace beverages and snacks, has announced the launch of Javia.com, an e-commerce solution for small businesses. Javia.com offers offices – typically those with fewer than 30 employees – the largest selection of name-brand coffees, teas, single-cup brewers, snacks and breakroom supplies. More importantly, Javia.com provides small business owners with a convenient means to create a positive workplace environment and support employee engagement.
“Javia.com is just one more example of how we tailor solutions to help all clients increase productivity and enhance the workplace experience,” said John Fisher, Vice President for e-commerce. “Small business owners can now offer the most popular brands and conveniently manage their supplies directly from their desk, laptop or smart phone on Javia.com.”
Studies have shown how offering quality refreshments at work supports a positive environment and the new sales channel makes it easy for smaller organizations – with not enough demand to support a full-service breakroom – to provide that perk to their customers and employees.
What distinguishes Javia.com from other e-commerce programs is its large selection of brand-name, premium coffees and teas and snacks in addition to its full complement of sweeteners, cups, napkins and other breakroom supplies. Additionally, it offers a JaviaVIP program which provides exclusive savings for those who establish an auto-delivery program.
Rather than have employees run out for a cup of joe or a candy bar, businesses using Javia.com will be able to offer sweet and salty snacks, soups and breakfast bars in addition to a wide selection of hot beverages.
According to Jonathan Peters, Senior Vice President for Operations, “For 75 years, ARAMARK has been bringing refreshment favorites into the places where people work. Javia.com allows us to continue our tradition of excellence, leveraging the latest technology.”
