Gym Meal Vending Machines

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Myprotein Frozen Protein Meal Vending Machine Was Made with Iceland

— May 26, 2023 — Tech
This Myprotein frozen protein meal vending machine was created in partnership with the UK-based Iceland supermarket as a way to offer health-conscious consumers an easy way to enjoy a quick bite.

The vending machine is positioned as a world's first and features a sleek construction with a touchscreen interface for cycling through the various options. The system will stock 10 Myprotein meals, which each feature between 20 and 30-grams of protein, and will be installed at a gym in Wigan, UK with an additional rollout to Fitness First gym locations nationwide if the pilot test is successful. The smart venting machines are manufactured by Mother, which focuses on advanced evening solutions for a variety of retailers, establishments and brands.

Iceland and Myprotein collectively commented on the Myprotein frozen protein meal vending machine saying, "Gym goers simply need to pick the meal of their choice and pop it in the microwave once home to help refuel, build muscle and recover – with ultimate convenience. From just £5.00 – £5.50 per meal, they’re super affordable too.”
