SSP America, a division of SSP Group, announces an exclusive agreement with Briggo Coffee to bring their automated kiosk coffee concept to U.S. and Canadian airports.
Briggo’s technology lets customers either order ahead from a mobile app or use the company’s Coffee Haus touchscreens to customize their latte, cappuccino or other gourmet hot and iced coffee and tea drinks. Briggo’s robotic technology can craft drinks within minutes from custom whole-bean blends, fresh dairy and gourmet syrups at a rate of up to 100 cups per hour.
“The SSP America team is passionate about bringing cool, authentic brands to airports,” says Pat Murray, SSP America executive vice president. “Briggo delivers serious innovation to brewing coffee we believe will enhance the traveler’s experience. It’s quick and the quality is impeccable. We think airports are going to find Briggo an excellent addition to their retail landscape given its small footprint, minimal requirements and turnkey installation.”
Briggo’s Coffee Haus features its own blend of high-altitude arabica beans, but in addition to the Briggo Blend, SSP America and Briggo will work with individual airports to select local brands to also showcase in their Coffee Hauses.
“This ground-breaking partnership will allow us to significantly increase the speed and scale at which we enable access to specialty coffee in airports,” says Briggo CEO Kevin Nater. “SSP America embodies the same innovative spirit and commitment to quality, consistency and convenience which our award-winning team strives for every day. Together we will empower passengers to create their perfect cups of connected coffee 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.”
