During early winter, the South Korea streets were at below zero. The Hommy Smoothie Vending Machine of a CU convenience store at 9PM was operational. It sold four portions of fruit slush within fifteen minutes. The attendant recorded that the machine makes a sale of between 20 cups daily, even during cold seasons. This demonstrates that the fruit slush market in Korea is large.
Nowadays, individuals desire healthy and efficient living. They seek foods that are low in calories and rich in nutrients and all natural. Their last demand is drinks that suit their health and taste. Fruit slush delivers. It preserves the nutritional value of the fruit, and also allows its customers to tailor flavors. It is a nutritious option that will not be seasonal.
The machine is on day and night just like a convenience store. The highest level of sales is between 10 pm and midnights and constitutes 26.9 percent of the total sales. The machine blends the fresh fruit in a minute using a fast blending process to convert it into slush. It is convenient, and it prepares beverages within a short time to satisfy the customer need in this fast-paced market.
The machine self cleans after every drink thereby avoiding cross-contamination and maintaining hygiene. It also provides twenty languages. This facilitates easy shopping especially among the Korean buyers and other international travellers, eliminating the language barrier, and increasing customer base.
The smart management system provides the terminal with remote inventory and real-time data analysis. Stores are able to monitor the stock and anticipate when to re-stock. The sales information will help understand what flavors are popular with people seasonally and at what time of the year. This allows them to change fruit options and supply schedules within a short time frame. What follows is accurate operations that increase efficiency and profit.
