Let's Pizza is a company, which manufactures pizza making vending machines. The pizzas are prepared from scratch and it is the first vending machine to produce freshly made ready-to-eat pizza.[1][2] Let's Pizza machines combine technology with traditional pizza making. Customers can choose their preferred toppings, and the machine will prepare the dough, add sauce and toppings, and bake the pizza in a matter of minutes.
Information
[edit]The machine combines water, flour, tomato sauce, and fresh ingredients to make a pizza in approximately three minutes. It includes windows so customers can watch the pizza as it is made.[3] The pizza is cooked in an infrared oven.[4] The machine is made to create 100 pizzas before it needs to be refilled with its ingredients.[5]
History
[edit]The development of the pizza vending machine began in the mid-1990s. Let's Pizza's machine cooks pizzas from scratch and a working prototype was made in 2003. The machines were made in Northern Italy. Later that year, test marketing began in Germany. Rollout started in 2009: the machines spread over Europe, and especially through Italy. Let's Pizza entered the South Korean market in 2015.[6][7][8][9][1][2]
