Turning Employee Appreciation Week into a Company-Wide Experience
When InterMed, P.A. set out to celebrate Employee Appreciation Week, the goal wasn’t just to provide coffee — it was to create something memorable across multiple locations, teams, and days.
That’s where Side By Side Coffee stepped in.
Over the course of 5 days, we delivered a fully customized, high-volume coffee catering experience across five InterMed locations — ensuring every team member had access to the same elevated experience, no matter where they were.
The Challenge: Consistency at Scale
Multi-location activations come with a unique challenge:
Maintaining consistent quality across locations
Managing high service volume efficiently
Creating a cohesive, branded experience
Keeping engagement high across multiple days
InterMed needed more than a vendor — they needed a partner who could execute seamlessly at scale.
The Solution: A Fully Branded, Multi-Day Coffee Activation
We designed a custom coffee catering experience tailored specifically for InterMed’s Employee Appreciation Week.
From setup to service, every detail was intentional:
5 consecutive days of service across different locations
50+ drinks per hour capacity to handle peak demand
Fully branded experience — from the cart to cups to menu
Custom engagement elements aligned with InterMed’s internal theme
This wasn’t just coffee — it was a shared experience across the entire organization.
Emily Strout Executive Assistant, InterMed, P.A.
“Side By Side Coffee was absolutely incredible to work with for our Employee Appreciation Week. Kenny went truly above and beyond for our staff from start to finish.
He arrived early each day, was fully prepared, and worked incredibly hard to serve as many people as possible so everyone had the chance to enjoy a drink.
What really stood out was the extra effort he put into making the experience special. Kenny even created on-brand extras that fit perfectly with our engagement theme — such a thoughtful and creative touch.
Over the course of the week, he also started remembering orders for some of our ‘regulars.’
The coffee was fantastic, the service was exceptional, and Kenny himself was just unbelievable.
If you’re considering Side By Side Coffee for an event, I can’t recommend them highly enough. It was truly one of the highlights of our week!”
InterMed shared their experience publicly:
“The most popular spot at InterMed that whole week! Thank you for the incredible service and the co-branded moments! We can't wait to do it again!”
Whether it’s Employee Appreciation Week, a conference series, or a multi-office activation, we specialize in delivering high-volume, fully branded coffee catering experiences that scale without losing quality.
