YoZone Contract

Agreement  |   YoZone Exhibit

The Stanford Contract Office has signed a campus-wide “YoZone Vending Machine Stanford Agreement” with their local distributor “Natural Now, LLC” for their distribution and installation of Yo Naturals healthy vending machines throughout the campus and other Stanford locations, provided these locations are approved by Natural Now, LLC.

If your building(s)’ occupants have an interest in having a Yo Naturals healthy vending machine, please contact:

If your building is approved by Natural Now, LLC (which will depend on the total occupancy and through-traffic count in your building) you will need to complete the YoZone Exhibit that is available on the Stanford Purchasing site; please print two copies and sign both and turn them over to Natural Now, LLC, for their counter-execution. They will return one fully-executed counterpart for your files, which your department must retain with other important documents. Please understand that, by executing the Yozone Exhibit you are accepting the terms of the YoZone Vending Machine Stanford Agreement, so read the Agreement carefully.

If you wish to examine the YoZone healthy vending machines or sample some of their healthy snacks or beverages, you can find a few of them already installed on campus at the following locations:

• Environment & Energy Bldg @ 473 Via Ortega
• The Equestrian Center @ 100 Electioneer Road
• Green Earth Sciences @ 367 Panama Mall
• The School of Earth Sciences building @ 397 Panama Mall

Two additional vending machines will be installed at the School of Education at 520 Galvez Mall when they become available.

Or you can view the vending machines on a short video at http://www.yonaturals.com/kfmb.wmv

When you sign up for a YoZone Healthy Vending Machine

• Natural Now LLC will provide and install the machines (Drinks and Snacks in one machine)
• Natural Now LLC will monitor, maintain and replenish these machines as needed
• Natural Now LLC will offer products that meet state and federal nutrition guidelines (Healthy, natural, Organic Choices)
• Natural Now LLC will pay the school 5% of total sales, on a monthly basis.

What will it cost the school?

• Absolutely nothing; all Natural Now LLC will need is a safe place to put the machine and the power.

IMPORTANT
Natural Now LLC will provide and install seismic bracing when they install the machines, with the approval of and coordination with the appropriate Building Manager. Please ensure that this seismic bracing takes place promptly to avoid injuries. Generally "L" brackets are secured to the top of the vending machine and then into the wall (ideally into a stud/support).
