Selecta, a global leader in food tech solutions, has unveiled its latest 24/7 Grab-and-Go food and drink concept at Stansted Airport, setting a new benchmark for travellers’ snacking experiences. This initiative is the second installation at a UK airport and marks the debut use of Kepak’s hot food vending machine in a Selecta installation, ensuring passengers can enjoy a hot snack swiftly before boarding their flight.
Crafted to cater to the fast-paced nature of airport travel, Selecta’s flagship concept at Stansted Airport offers a fresh perspective on on-the-go dining. Whether you’re an early bird catching the first flight or a night owl boarding a red-eye, Selecta ensures travellers have access to a range of high-quality fresh food, snacks, and beverages whenever they need them.
Key features of Selecta’s Grab-and-Go 24/7 food and drink concept at Stansted Airport include:
1. Unparalleled Convenience: Open 24/7, Selecta’s concept is tailored to the needs of modern travellers, ensuring access to nourishing and delicious options round the clock.
2. Safe & Secure: The Grab & Go solution utilises smart technology and intelligent vending. Smart fridges allow browsing, ingredient checks, and product selection, with charges applied only for items taken, ensuring a seamless consumer experience.
3. Cutting-Edge Hot Food Vending Machine: One highlight of this concept is the first introduction of the Kepak Rustlers hot food vending machine into the Foodies family. This state-of-the-art machine enables passengers to indulge in quick, hot snacks on the go.
4. Range of Hot Beverages and Filtered Water: Passengers can choose their favourite fresh-bean coffee or hot drink and refill their water bottles with chilled filtered water using the state-of-the-art Neo Q beverage machine.
This opening follows the successful launch of Foodies-on-the-go at East Midlands Airport, another Manchester Airport Group operation, and was designed and built by Nebrak.
London Stansted’s Retail Director, Stephen Martin, said: “We’re very pleased to team up with Selecta to offer our passengers this convenient and innovative grab-and-go concept offering a broad range of products that can be adapted as we learn from our customer’s tastes.
“The airside location and enhanced environment Selecta has created within satellite two gate area makes it a convenient stop for those looking to pick up any last-minute needs before their flight from London Stansted. I’d like to thank the whole Selecta team for working with us to deliver this great initiative.”
