Over the last few days, the Studierendenwerk Tübingen-Hohenheim has received a lot of feedback about the snack vending machines in Tübingen. One repeated request was for a larger selection of meat-free and healthier alternatives.

We take this feedback very seriously and are already in close dialogue with our partner, the Sweet Oasis. The Studierendenwerk bears full responsibility for the current range, while the Süße Oase merely implements our specifications as a service provider. We are therefore surprised at the sometimes critical tone towards our partner.

Philipp Mang, press spokesperson for the Studierendenwerk, explains: ‘We welcome constructive suggestions and dialogue on the further development of our vending machine range. Respectful interaction with all parties involved is particularly important to us. We firmly reject unobjective and derogatory comments.’

Students are cordially invited to submit their suggestions for improvement. Suggestions can be sent by email to automaten [at] sw-tuebingen-hohenheim [dot] de. The Studierendenwerk will review these in collaboration with the Sweet Oasis and evaluate possible adjustments.
