LBX Food Robotics, a producer in hot food vending, has deployed its Bake Xpress hot food kiosks with partner Nancy Harkey Enterprises across Birmingham, UK, including at Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport (BHM).


Positioned at TSA checkpoints, baggage claim and in food court locations, the custom-branded machines serve pastries, sandwiches, local barbecue, and Italian dishes and pizzas. Bake Xpress is said to be 'the world’s only' UL-certified full-menu hot food vending kiosk, enabling operation in regulated locations like airports.


At BHM, the custom-branded machines feature brands like Little Napoli Pizza, Chappie Daddy’s BBQ, and Squoze, offering pizza, lasagna, breakfast sandwiches, burritos and pastries.



Renard Mitchell, president of Nancy Harkey Enterprises, said: “The need for expanded food services is well-known by travelers and operators alike. We’ve all been at the airport when everything is closed or the lines at the food counters are long. We knew we needed a new way to serve customers, so we were delighted to engage with LBX to install the Bake Xpress machines."


"Not only can we utilise the programmable oven to bake a huge variety of foods, we have full flexibility to leverage our existing partnerships with food brands and to serve regional fare.”


The Bake Xpress kiosks use a smart oven combining convection, infrared and microwave technologies to bake foods on demand. The machines meet international safety standards, including Underwriters Laboratories (UL) certification for operation in high-security locations like airports and hospitals.


Benoit Herve, founder and CEO of LBX Food Robotics, added: “We have put our focus on quality since the company’s inception, and both our machine and the food it serves exemplify this cornerstone objective. Customers realise that it is not enough to just offer a convenience with their vending solution, they must offer delicious food as well. As the only full-menu hot food vending solution certified to operate in airports, we are making it possible to bring a new level of convenience to the traveler experience.
