CORONA, Calif., Sept. 15, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- AVT, Inc. (OTC Markets: AVTC) (www.autoretail.com), a leader in automated retailing systems and custom vending machines, announced today that the Chicago Marriott O'Hare has installed Farmer's Fridge, a healthy vending kiosk that was developed and built in partnership with AVT. 

Farmer's Fridge has taken an innovative approach to making healthy, delicious food easier to access. The company's kiosk will be located in the Chicago Marriott O'Hare for the next five months under a pilot program. If successful, the program may roll out nationally.

"It is an honor for Farmer's Fridge to partner with a company as innovative as Marriott Hotels, which recognizes the need for healthy meal options among travelers," Luke Saunders, founder of Farmer's Fridge told Hospitality Financial and Technology Professionals. "I founded Farmer's Fridge because I used to spend 75 percent of my time on-the-road for work and was personally frustrated by the lack of convenient, healthy food available. Now it has come full circle, with this new partnership giving travelers access to fresh, nutritious food on-the-go through our revolutionary kiosks."

Perfect for travelers, business people, workers – and anyone that eats a lunch or dinner away from home, Farmer's Fridge is the fresh, convenient way to get nutritious food, quickly, affordably, and deliciously. 

"We value our relationship with Farmer's Fridge, and are proud to have partnered with them on the development of this successful, new concept," said Shannon Illingworth, Founder and Chairman of AVT, Inc. "We look forward to working with them as they expand nationwide and continue to revolutionize the many markets they serve."
