TIDEWATER

Post-workout fuel, zero staffing

Every class that ends is a protein shake you didn’t sell. A gym vending machine used to be the answer nobody wanted — a Tidewater smart cooler is the one your members will actually use: tap, grab a cold recovery drink, gone in ten seconds. No counter to staff, no inventory to count, no cost to you.

The retail corner of your studio, run for you

Curated for training

Protein, electrolytes, cold brew and clean snacks — chosen with your community's actual habits, then refined by what sells.

Revenue without labour

Take a commission or product credit while we handle stocking, cleaning and support. Your coaches stay coaches.

Always cold, always on

Early birds at 5:30am and the 9pm class get the same full fridge — telemetry restocking means the favourites don't run dry.

Most studios start with the compact smart cooler format; larger facilities add a snack store for bars and jerky. Here’s how the tap-grab-go flow works.

Gyms & studios — owner questions

What goes in a gym smart cooler?

Post-workout essentials: RTD protein shakes, electrolyte drinks, sparkling water, cold brew, protein bars and clean snacks. We tune the mix to your community — a strength studio and a yoga studio don't drink the same fridge.

Do studio owners earn anything from it?

You can. Choose a small commission on sales or product credit for your team — or keep it simple with pure free placement. Either way, you stop losing the post-class sale you currently can't serve.

How much space does it take in a studio?

The compact format needs little more than a corner near the exit — about half a fridge width more than your current retail shelf, plus one outlet.

Will it match a premium studio's look?

Glass, clean lines and none of the arcade-machine glow. It's designed to sit beside good interiors — bring your brand palette and we'll show you a placement render first.
