Leon to roll out self-serve coffee kiosks

The brand is forecast to save an additional 42,000 square metres before the end of the year, which is equivalent to the size of Wembley Stadium

Leon has announced its intention to launch self-serve coffee kiosks in 68 EG-owned petrol forecourts across the UK. Using the group’s own branded, triple-certified coffee, customers will receive the same barista-quality coffee “at the touch of a button”.

The roll-out of self-serve coffee kiosks has come about due to the brand’s “long standing” partnership with the World Land Trust since it started selling coffee, which means that Leon’s coffee is organic, fairtrade, and “kind to the planet”.

It is reported that for every seven cups consumed, one metre squared of rainforest is saved, whether it is served in the restaurants, brewed at home, or poured at one of the group’s new kiosks.

In addition, with the rollout of the new kiosks, the brand is forecast to save an additional 42,000 square metres before the end of the year, which is equivalent to the size of Wembley Stadium.

The machines have reportedly been developed to a bespoke Leon brand standard with optimised retail space, providing integrated snack racks as part of the design. A focus on digital signage has also been at the core of the design in order to “engage customers visually”, creating a modern space, and an all-round easy and straight-forward experience for the shopper.

Glenn Edwards, managing director of Leon Restaurants, said: “Ever since we started selling coffee in our restaurants, we’ve made sure to use the best beans we possibly can. The best for flavour, farmers, and the environment. 

“We are thrilled to be able to share our coffee with more people across the country with the unveiling of these innovative kiosks, and look forward to seeing this expansion in action.”
