Coca-Cola

Unattended retail solutions are redefining how audiences engage with concessions at the cinema. As theaters embrace innovations like Coca-Cola Freestyle machines and grab-and-go concession stands, they see reduced wait times for customers, lower overhead, and the potential for rising sales. For larger cinemas, a full Just Walk Out store can be amazing. It could have drinks, snacks, merchandise, and even food. For midsize sites, a combination of smart coolers, snack cabinets, and a great self-service coffee solution works equally brilliantly. For smaller venues, only a single, dual-branded Coca-Cola or Costa Coffee unit may be necessary. The idea is to find the right-sized solution for the space and the customer flow. Coca-Cola can tailor the solution for cinema customers.
