Starbucks Coffee Displays Roll Out in Grocery Stores

Coinstar Inc. (Bellevue, Wash.) and Seattle’s Best Coffee, part of Starbucks Corp. (Seattle), announced an exclusive agreement to roll out Rubi coffee kiosks in the grocery, drug and mass merchant retail channels. The coffee kiosks will initially be installed in the Northeast and West Coast regions of the U.S. beginning this summer, with approximately 500 kiosks expected by the end of the year. +Starbucks Coffee

The units mark Coinstar’s third automated retail business, joining its Redbox movie rental and Coinstar coin-counting kiosks. “We believe our coffee kiosk reimagines the coffee experience for consumers,” says Paul Davis, ceo of Coinstar, Inc.

The Rubi kiosk occupies approximately 9 square feet and grinds and brews fresh whole beans in a single cup process, serving brewed coffee and specialty drinks including mochas and vanilla lattes.

These Custom Displays are designed to fit in a small space, attract attention with graphics and be functional as all well designed displays are.
