Can robots help to save the ailing F&B industry?

SINGAPORE: Over the years, restaurant owner Jerry Singh has been constantly “fighting with other to find bartenders”.

Ratio is a collaborative robot, or cobot, which is designed to work alongside humans in shared spaces. It was enough for him to believe that such robots can take over the “tao chiew” role in future. “ robot-made coffee will be very consistent ‘tao chiew’ coffee will be quite inconsistent,” he said. The cost of leasing Ratio is between S$2,500 and S$3,500 a month, which is comparable to the average salary of F&B service staff, including bartenders.

Singh, whose monthly lease on Ratio includes kitchen equipment such as ice machines, chillers and coffee equipment, agrees that the robot will be more efficient and reliable.He met Pathross about a year ago in Shanghai, at a pop-up cafe-bar with this robotic bartender, and was convinced that this technology would be able to serve the F&B industry, since “we’re cursed by manpower crunch issues”.
