Thailand’s The Original Farm Co., Ltd., the operator of the Japanese restaurant ChouNan, has started selling its meals through a vending machine as the company adjusts its strategy for the new normal following the COVID-19 pandemic. The new Cloud Kitchen concept brings together 50 SKUs including rice dishes, soup, sauce and onigiri as well as items from Soulshi and Jade Tiger Boat Noodle.
The vending machine is focused on residential buildings and condominiums with plans to expand into offices, hospitals, schools, universities and transport hubs.
