Unmanned Beverage Solutions for Office Buildings
In one line: An office tower needs drink coverage at three kinds of spot: pantry, meeting floors and lobby. A device matrix replaces procurement and delivery, and admin no longer handles refills or cleaning.
Key figures: 8 categories · 100+ models | exported to 100+ countries and regions | a cup in tens of seconds · about 2 sq m per machine
Better employee benefits · Lower admin cost · Extra venue revenue
Get a tailored planThree pain points of traditional office beverage service
Employee demand goes unmet
A pantry offers limited categories and flavours; delivery is slow; convenience-store queues eat the lunch break; and company-wide afternoon-tea orders are expensive and never suit everyone.
Admin runs on manual effort
Buying, counting, cleaning and settling consume admin time; staff cost is high, consumption is opaque and budgets are hard to control.
Space sits underused
Lobby, pantry and lounge areas create no value, amenity service is thin and there is no differentiation.

| Fresh brewing | Ground and brewed to order | Not possible | Depends on staff |
| Operations | IoT remote monitoring, unattended | Scheduled refills, faults go unnoticed | Staffed, high cost |
| Data | Sales, stock and customer data end to end | Transaction counts only | No data |
| Footprint | 0.5–1.2 sq m, flexible placement | 1-2 sq m | 3-8 sq m |
| Cost per cup | RMB 2.5–4.5, controllable | RMB 3-6 | RMB 5-10 |
Capsule brewing vs fresh grinding: the conclusion first
Conclusion: capsule brewing suits unattended sites. Output follows parameters rather than people, and maintenance shifts from daily line cleaning to weekly refills, which is what makes unattended operation viable. Fresh grinding suits staffed stores where the ritual is part of the offer.
| Dimension | Option A | Option B |
|---|---|---|
| Upfront cost | Standard machines configured per category, with ingredient bays and remote management | Grinding needs a grinder, plumbing and heavier installation work |
| Consistency | Fixed parameters give the same cup every time; tens of seconds per cup | Varies with bean condition, grinder setup and environment, and depends on the operator |
| Daily maintenance | Capsules are individually sealed and the ingredient path is closed; daily refills take about 15 minutes | Lines and milk residue need daily cleaning, or flavour and hygiene drift |
| Site requirements | About 2 sq m, 220 V, no plumbing needed | Usually needs water in and waste out, which limits placement |
| Compliance and packaging | Individually sealed capsules with traceable food-contact materials and cleaning routines | Open ingredient bays and fresh beans demand tighter shelf-life and cleaning schedules |
How to choose: for unattended sites such as offices, transit hubs and parks, choose capsule brewing. For staffed stores with steady footfall, fresh grinding is a plus rather than a necessity. The two do not conflict, and mixed portfolios can assign machines by scenario.
Summary
Certainty in fresh drinks comes from parameters: tens of seconds per cup, about 2 sq m per machine, 220 V with no plumbing, and per-machine output and fault visibility in the dashboard.
To plan a specific site (office, mall, school, campus), send us the scenario and average daily footfall and we will return a configuration and model by machine type. Sales: +86 185-0305-5366 | sales01@dozzon.com
