Innovative Food Technology Solution Comes to Brisbane Airport

Sept. 24, 2020

With around 28 weekly international flights scheduled at Brisbane Airport, there is demand for food and beverage — but not enough for the in-terminal retailers to remain open. 

Together, Brisbane Airport and leading readymade meals provider snapfresh, have partnered to deliver a food retail solution — a readymade meals vending machine. 

Martin Ryan, executive general manager commercial, Brisbane Airport Corporation says the machine is a great addition to the international terminal at a time where passenger numbers are down 98%. "Not only does it ensure there are additional food options available for travelers transiting through our airport, but our staff and employees within the airport can also access delicious readymade meal solutions." 

Hiranjan Aloysius, dnata catering chief executive officer says, "we are excited to be able to deliver our high-quality readymade meals created by world class chefs, to consumers utilizing industry leading technology. With six meal varieties on rotation, the machine dispenses a hot ready to eat meal in 70 seconds, or a cold meal to heat and eat later, almost simultaneously."
