Micro Market Service in Metro Detroit
The problem

What property teams are dealing with.

Larger properties want more than a single cooler, but a staffed cafe, vending bank, or full c-store is the wrong scale. The amenity floor sits underused, the breakroom looks tired, and residents or employees still leave the building for basics.

What's missing is a convenience-store experience sized to the space, without the payroll, the cash drawer, or the operational headache.

How RevoMart solves it

A self-serve setup, fully coordinated.

A RevoMart micro market is open shelving, coolers, and a self-checkout kiosk arranged into a clean, retail-style amenity. Browse the shelves, scan at the kiosk, tap a card or phone, done. Open 24/7, no staffing required.

We design the layout to your floorplan, source the equipment, build out the space, curate the assortment, and run ongoing stocking, cleaning, and maintenance. In qualifying locations the setup can launch with no upfront cost as part of a 60-90 day pilot.

Setup options

Configurations we deploy.

Every recommendation comes from a short on-site assessment, we never force a format into a space that doesn't suit it.

Compact configuration (~80 sq ft)

A tight, well-curated market for amenity floors, mid-size offices, or boutique hotels. Coolers + a focused snack and pantry shelf.

Standard amenity-floor market

A larger footprint with broader assortment, fresh, frozen, snacks, drinks, and essentials. Built for steady daily traffic.

Multi-zone tailored build

For multi-tenant or multi-floor properties: a market plus satellite smart coolers across the building.

Example product mix

Stocked for who actually uses it.

We tune the assortment to your audience and refine it during the pilot based on what actually moves.

  • Fresh grab-and-go meals and salads
  • Refrigerated drinks and dairy
  • Snacks, chips, bars, and sweets
  • Better-for-you and protein options
  • Coffee, tea, and pantry essentials
  • Personal care and quick essentials
Why properties say yes

  • Tuned to your audience

    We start with a curated assortment and refine it during the pilot based on what your residents or employees actually buy.

Common questions

What is a micro market?

A micro market is an open, retail-style setup with shelving, coolers, and a self-checkout kiosk. Residents, employees, or guests browse like a small convenience store and pay at the kiosk by card or mobile wallet. Everything is unattended and runs 24/7.

How much space does a micro market need?

Compact configurations start around 80 square feet. Larger amenity-floor markets can scale up significantly. We size the recommendation to your space during the site assessment.

Is a micro market right for our apartment community?

Micro markets are a strong fit for amenity floors, lounges, and resident clubrooms in Class-A and high-traffic multifamily. They function as a true convenience amenity for residents and frequently appear on tour highlight lists.

How is a micro market different from a smart cooler?

Smart coolers are single, self-contained refrigeration units with built-in checkout, ideal for tight footprints. Micro markets are open retail-style spaces with multiple coolers, shelving, and a kiosk, closer to a small convenience store. We recommend the format that actually fits the property.
