Will your next cuppa be served up by a robot? If you visit One Kitchen in Rockford, Illinois, it just may be!
That's the location of the second installation of Richtech Robotics Inc.'s advanced robotic beverage system, ADAM. , at a One Kitchen in a Rockford, IL Walmart. The install is part of a planned rollout across 240 One Kitchen locations in the U.S. One Kitchen restaurants feature multiple national and local brands using a single kitchen.
The installation is also part of Richtech Robotics’ new commercial management venture, AlphaMax Management, LLC, which will be responsible for the entire commercial workflow of One Kitchen restaurants within Walmart. The venture aims to better integrate robots into traditional restaurant operations and to provide overall restaurant data analysis, digital marketing, and the integration of artificial intelligence applications.
Equipped with cutting-edge AI technology, ADAM commenced operations at the Rockford One Kitchen on August 16th, 2024, serving a variety of coffee and boba drinks to customers. The robot is expected to serve 100-200 cups of coffee and tea per day.
