Three northeast Oklahoma Reasor’s locations now feature Sally, the Fresh Food Robot, an automated salad station, reports Progressive Grocer. The robot was developed by Chowbotics and offers as many as 22 ingredients freshly prepared daily by Reasor’s deli associates, enabling hundreds of combinations for salads and bowls.
“We are thrilled to be the first to introduce Sally, the create-your-own salad robot, to our community,” said Reasor’s CEO Jeff Reasor. “Sally complements Reasor’s culinary teams by expanding our fresh meal solutions through technology that assembles made-to-order fresh salads and bowls on the spot. In the era of COVID-19, Sally’s proprietary technology has become even more important as it allows for a little if any touching of the ingredients. With Sally, we are offering a better solution that is fresh, safe — and fun.”
“Shoppers love that they can personalize Sally’s made-to-order meals to their exact liking through its easy-to-use interface,” said Rick Wilmer, head of Chowbotics. “Reasor’s is paving the way for the most innovative and safe self-serve experience.” Full Story
