The machines, which use Break Fluid’s coffee bean Fuel Injector, are completely touchless – beverages are ordered from a tablet or smartphone via an app.
Chris Mcardle, brand manager at Break Fluid, said: “The presence of a hot beverage dispenser will contribute to consumer dwell time and according to retail studies, there is a significant positive relationship between time spent in-store and sales. Customers who take the time to enjoy their retail experience are more likely to have a delayed point of sale and therefore, potentially increase their spending.
“Break Fluid coffee machines will not only dispense a great tasting drink, but can be a source of revenue and profit if retailers choose to charge over 40p for a cup.”
The machines will be available to purchase by independent shop owners.
Liquidline and Break Fluid are collaborating on further coffee dispensing machines. They are currently working on a cold brew coffee machine which they claim will be an industry first.
