The Product

Using the Dockspace website, offices and institutions can input their needs and health preferences (like nutritional bars or chips, juices, and water or carbonated beverages), and receive a tailor-made package of snacks and coffee for the specified time period. 

Dockspace also claims to help offices with inventory management by recommending how much of each item to keep in supply for the needs of that particular office, promising to help streamline break room purchasing with minimum wastage and “perfect the breakroom”. 

As a boutique service provider, Dockspace’s website also says that they work within the specific budgets of each office, and can provide customized packages that suit organizations of various sizes.
