A JuiceBot vending machine has opened at Blue Fog Market located in San Francisco, CA, according to Inside Scoop SF. The JuiceBot vending machine dispenses four kinds of raw organic juice and is bottled in glass jars which sell for $10. The machine operates Monday to Friday 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. and weekends from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. Users swipe their credit card which unlocks an adjacent fridge with mason jars. The user then places the jar in position and chooses a juice.
The JuiceBot team launched a KickStarter campaign in September 2014. It announced seven main features including:
- 24 Customizable Combinations: 4 tanks inside the kiosk: Greens, Roots, Citrus/Fruits, and Seasonal. Can be mixed and matched per ounce: experienced raw juice drinkers may prefer to have a vegetable-dense drink, while consumers new to juicing may prefer a more fruit laden juice.
- You Bottle It: The kiosk contains clean jars on the right side of kiosk for customers. The jars are reusable and will not leech dangerous chemicals into your raw juice like plastic can. Also BYOB that is clean.
- 22 Inch Interactive Screen: Display nutritional and sourcing information, tutorials, and feedback option.
- NAMA Certified.
- Self-Cleans After Every Use: Dispensing compartment has an automatic door that opens only for customers. In-place flush system after every use, as well as UV rays that disinfect the compartment.
- Plug and Play: At only 15 sq. ft., our kiosks can fit in almost any gym, yoga studio, office, headquarter center, and apartment buildings. Furthermore, a water hookup or plumbing isn’t needed, which differentiates us from other vending machines. Everything is self-contained for easy installation.
- Pressed in Your City: Commercial kitchen in every major city that we enter. This way, your juice is always pressed and distributed locally.
