A new automated coffee experience is on the horizon as Octane Coffee plans to open its second drive-thru kiosk in Brookfield. The company has seen significant growth since launching its first location last year.
• The new kiosk is proposed for a site in the parking lot of a Best Buy store.
• Octane Coffee has reported a 50% increase in sales since January.
• The automated system can serve drinks in under 30 seconds, enhancing customer convenience.
• Future plans include opening more locations and potentially franchising by next year.
This expansion is significant as it reflects a growing trend towards automation in the food and beverage industry. With labor shortages affecting many businesses, Octane Coffee's model could attract major competitors looking to streamline operations. The company's technology may not only serve its own needs but could also be sold to larger chains, changing the landscape of coffee service.
