Introducing Glides.
Your new favorite amenity.
The problem:
Hotels have realized that mini bars are flawed.
Yet, there’s been no alternative that excites guests and makes staff operations easier.
Until now…
Why do guests love Glides?
More volume to drink
24/7 access
In-room convenience
Tastes great
Drinks are purchased directly on their phone
No staff interactions required
Message from the Founder - Thomas Barkel
“It’s important to understand that Glides are a rare amenity because they actually reduce the work for hotel staff, instead of increasing it.”
Glides are part of an automated system. So hotels can focus on their core business, instead of beverages.
The basics:
Vital delivers pre-filled Glides, and picks up the empty ones.
When a Glide becomes empty in a room, Vital automatically sends hotel staff an alert (“Room 155 Beach Lemonade is empty”).
What this means for hotels:
There’s no refilling, maintenance, or cleaning. When an empty alert is received, just add it to housekeeping’s checklist, and they swap it out.
There’s no inventory management. Vital monitors inventory in real-time and knows exactly when to make deliveries to keep each hotel fully stocked.
There’s no purchasing management. Glides are delivered and picked up for free. Vital makes money from the revenue share of each drink sold to guests.
A major money maker
Because of Glides revenue-sharing model, hotels don’t pay for each unit, which keeps costs low and profits high.
With every drink sold, the hotel brings in net profit.
A typical hotel can expect to increase GOPPAR by 10-20% with Glides.
