Staff solicited, and received, two proposals for beverage vending services -one from Coca-Cola and one from Pepsi. Coca-Cola's proposal was more lucrative for the City and called for the City to receive 35% commission on all sales, as well as free product each year. Two machines were installed, one inside the Community Center and the other outside on the south side of the facility. In 2005 staff again solicited proposals for beverage vending services. Again, two proposals were received, from Coca-Cola and Pepsi. The proposal from Coca-Cola was more beneficial to the City. A new agreement was executed with Coca-Cola. The relationship with Coca-Cola continued until this year. In 2010, upon completion of the Live Oak Park Annex, staff worked with a local vending company, McNevin 3 in 1 Vending to provide a snack/beverage vending machine in the Annex, primarily for use by the teens involved in the City's Teen Zone program. An agreement for this machine was never submitted to Council for approval. The commission from McNevin 3 in 1 Vending is 10%; however their service has been exceptional. The popularity of the snack/beverage vending machine in the Annex, as well as requests from park patrons, has led staff to recommend installation of similar snack/beverage vending machines in the Community Center. Coca-Cola does not provide this type of machine and further, does not allow other vending services at locations where they have an agreement. Therefore, staff issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for vending services for the Live Oak Park Community Center and the Live Oak Park Annex. A total of three proposals were received by the deadline. Proposals were received from Premier Vend Group, Inc., Tri-Star Vending, and VendingOne. After thoroughly reviewing the proposals for completeness and conformance with the RFP, staff is recommending the City Council enter into an agreement with Premier Vend Group, Inc. for the period of October 1, 2012-June 30, 2014. Premier Vend Group, Inc. will provide 22.5% commission on all sales of food and snack items. Healthy choices will be available. Premier Vend Group, Inc. can provide cashless machines that accept debit/credit cards and can also provide customized machine fronts (for City logo, or other artwork). Staff has contacted and verified references for Premier Vend Group, Inc. including the cities of Baldwin Park, Norwalk, and Pico Rivera . CONCLUSION: City Council approval is requested for an agreement with Premier Vend Group, Inc. to provide vending services at Live Oak Park from October 1, 2012 -June 30, 2014.
