To help office managers order snacks that their workplace team will actually enjoy eating, food provider Tyme launched a creative office snack-choosing interface inspired by dating apps. The app gives employees the power to vote on the snacks they'd like to see in the office with a simple left or right swipe. With the app, office managers are able to collect real-time data on the most popular snacks, dietary preferences and other information to inform their office snack order.

Tyme offers up to 25% off retail prices and products from up-and-coming snack brands, not only helping to simplify the snack-ordering process but also saving office managers trips to the store to replenish snacks with its service.
