Aaron Lawton used “books on tape” to enter the world of real estate investing. While doing that, he was a vending route driver, starting early and tending to his rental property in the afternoon. Ultimately, he decided that he hated real estate but loved the vending business.

In this episode of Automatic Merchandiser & VendingMarketWatch's Vending & OCS Nation podcast, Aaron Lawton from Oasis Break Room Services sits down with podcast host Bob Tullio and shares how deliberate design and thoughtful amenities can turn break spaces into vibrant community hubs that attract and retain top talent. He strives to create a "heart of the workplace" atmosphere.

Lawton is focused on turning traditional break room spaces into intentional venues that become a culture hub and a tool for HR directors – promoting onboarding, employee happiness and ultimately, retention.

He loves the convenience services business and especially the interaction with clients and end users at all ends of the spectrum. As a listener, you will find his enthusiasm for what his company does and his commitment to an intentional approach to be contagious. It’s a big reason why Oasis Breakroom Services is a success.
