The People Behind the Route

Founder

Chase McLean

Chase founded Bayline to bring the quality of a local coffee shop to Tampa Bay’s break rooms — and to give facilities and healthcare buyers a partner who actually knows their account. He leads sourcing, account relationships, and the promise that the person who quotes your space is the same one who stands behind it.

With 10+ years of hands-on vending industry management, Bayline’s operations partner is the backbone behind the service reliability — route logistics, machine uptime, and restocking that stays ahead of demand. The experience that keeps a specialty promise running on a real-world schedule.

What We Stand For

Four things we won't compromise on.

Specialty, not commodity

The same quality bar as a local coffee shop — delivered on a route.

Founder-level service

A named contact who responds fast — never a ticket number.

Local & accountable

Tampa Bay-rooted, not managing your account from out of state.

Built to grow with you

Coffee first, with cold beverage, snacks, and markets added as you need them.
