Autonomous Mobile Barista On-Demand Coming Soon to Shenzhen

ATTRACTED by the huge potential in Shenzhen’s coffee market, Rhea Vendors Group, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of tailor-made coffee and vending machines, said they would like very much to start in Shenzhen with its state-of-the-art innovative coffee solutions Barista On-Demand.

The official global launch of the coffee solutions will be held today at the China International Import Expo (CIIE) in Shanghai, with the very first prototype on display.

Redefining the coffee experience and setting a new standard in the fusion of high technology and premium quality beverage vending, Barista On-Demand is a new concept of mobile coffee station that integrates automatic coffee machines with a self-driving vehicle. The solution transforms the typical coffee consumption from a go-to-shop activity into shop-comes-to-customers.

A coffee shop is not any more limited to a permanent address but can move around to reach a broader range of customers.

Users can also easily order coffee by one click on a mobile application with their desired drink delivered by the unmanned coffee vehicle.

Thanks to the collaboration with Neolix Technologies, a well-known Chinese company known for pioneering in the field of autonomous vehicles, Rhea works with the common objective of bringing vending to new places of consumption with tailor-made hospitality solutions.

“This project offers a new perspective on smart mobility in new retail,” said Yu Enyuan, founder and CEO of Neolix Technologies.
