Fast-casual brand signs statement of intent to embrace back-of-house automation

May 25, 2022 // Franchising.com // PASADENA, Calif. - Today, Wing Zone announced a partnership with Miso Robotics to make Flippy 2 a part of the chain’s standard build for all future restaurant locations.

“Our technology roadmap relies heavily on strategic partnerships with companies like Miso, a pioneer in the field of food automation, that has the knowledge, data and resources to design robotics solutions that maximize our efficiency and provide a better overall customer experience,” said David Bloom, Chief Development and Operating Officer of Wing Zone. “Our industry is in dire need of automation, and we are more than ready to deploy it at scale.”

The partnership comes in parallel with the recently announced Wing Zone Labs – a franchisee of Wing Zone that will also support the brand’s overall corporate innovation efforts. Wing Zone Labs will deploy Flippy at its twenty forthcoming Southern California locations to handle the frying station for chicken wings and other fried menu items.

“We couldn’t be more excited to announce a partnership with Wing Zone to incorporate back-of-house automation into all of its future restaurants from this point forward,” said Mike Bell, CEO of Miso Robotics. “No other brand has accepted automation to this degree, and we don’t take their trust in us lightly.”
