About the Business Enterprises of Texas Program

The Business Enterprises of Texas (BET) is a federally sponsored, state-administered program that provides food management opportunities for Texans who are blind.
If you are interested in providing your customers and employees with a convenient on-site food or vending service, BET can help. We assist with the design and layout for the service you request. Afterwards, we provide equipment for the kitchen, dining room, or break areas all at no cost to you. Once the business is functional, our business consultants provide follow up assistance to the manager to ensure your needs and wishes are met.
A licensed BET manager has the skills to provide a type of food service operation that best meets the needs of your business. Vending machines stocked with nutritious products are a great way to provide staff and customers snacks without having to leave the building. By reducing the need for driving to a store or restaurant for lunch, an enjoyable in-house environment is achieved, productivity enhanced, and fuel costs saved. Whatever option selected, a BET manager can provide excellent customer service, freshly prepared food, and a clean environment.
Our success as a food service or vending provider is proven by our track record achieving over 50 million dollars in annual sales. A BET manager’s main goal is to have available healthy food and beverage choices that are appealing, properly prepared, and affordable.
As a host organization, you will have the satisfaction of providing quality service to your employees and customers while providing an employment opportunity for a Texan who is blind. Please call (512) 377-0559 or 1-800-628-5115 for more information. We look forward to hearing from you.
