Robotics partners with Americana Restaurants to bring its robotic restaurant assistants to Dubai and beyondRestaurant robotics and automation group Miso Robotics is partnering with Americana Restaurants, in a collaboration that marks the first global rollout of its restaurant robotic systems. Under the partnership, Americana Restaurants will work to bring Miso Robotics’ pipeline of restaurant assistant bots to the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) regions, starting with a pilot test of Flippy 2 at Americana Restaurants’ flagship Wimpy burger chain location in the Dubai Mall. If successful, further expansion of this frying robot is anticipated across more of Americana Restaurants’ 2,000 sites in the coming months. With ongoing labor shortages and demand for increased productivity, the use of robots such as Flippy 2 is hoped to improve efficiency, reduce workload and streamline operations. Over the past year, Miso Robotics has collaborated with fast-food chains including White Castle, Chipotle and Jack in the Box to bring its robotic assistants to restaurants around the U.S.
