Convenience Stores

While C-stores have offered fresh, prepared foods for quite some time, it’s only in the last decade that the food service trend has really taken off. In fact, CSPnet reported that in 2014, 37% of consumers said they purchase ready-to-eat food items from c-stores weekly or more often. With more and more customers who are hungry and limited on time, food service offers a high return on investment. The result is c-stores evolving from gas stations who sell food to food retailers who also sell gas.

How does AutoFry and MultiChef Fit in?

Food prepared on site offers highly profitable menu items while satisfying your customers need for hot and ready food items. The easiest, most cost-effective way to implement a profitable food program is with the ventless kitchen technology AutoFry and MultiChef delivers. Because both machines are self-contained and ventless, you don’t need to spend money on costly renovations to add hoods or venting, all you need is counter or floor space and a plug and you’re ready to start increasing profits.

All c-stores have coffee, and an AutoFry and MultiChef makes a perfect complement to any coffee program with added ‘grab and go’ and impulse buy food menu options like egg sandwiches or French toast sticks. Convenience stores love the added sales they can generate by using AutoFry and MultiChef . Don't forget lunch and dinner. These days c-stores are capitalizing on these busy parts of the day with fresh, made to order options as well, like pizzas, wings and more.
