Description

Robotics in Foodservice - Thematic Intelligence

Summary

This report explores the trends which are driving foodservice companies towards robotics - from demographic shifts to technological advancements. The report looks at several case studies from major foodservice brands who are using robotics at various stages in the supply chain, from food preparation, through to ordering to delivery bots that provide table service in full-service resturants. Worldwide, robotics can expect to see double-digit growth in the next ten years - lead by companies in Asia Pacific.

Economic, demograpic and technological conditions are rapidly aligning in such a way to make robotics in foodservice a reality in many parts of the world. The mega-trends of an aging population, shrinking workforces plus developments in Artificial Intelligence mean big brands are getting food service bots. Many already use robotics at some point in the supply chain. Robotics has a place in both quick-service restuarants in terms of the preparation of certain items and also in full-service dining resturants in terms of table service. Robotics will help those companies using this technology to free up labor force resources for creative innovation, meaning they are more likely to stay ahead in future.

Scope

The robotics industry is set to experience double-digit growt in the next ten years as the demographic, economic and technical conditions are aligning.

The technology providers are highly concentrated geographically - big initatives are required for European markets to catch up.

Bots have the potential to free up a limited labor-force for more creative tasks, meaning companies who invest in robotics have great potential to innovate.Foodservice brands that adopt greater robotics implementation will be able to reach consumers via more channels.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
