Case Studies

Case 1

Denny's (Seven & i Holdings): Test introduction of serving robot Servi in Tokyo stores (since 2020)

  • Considering the decline in the working population due to declining birth rates, an aging society, and recruitment difficulties, they aim to focus on tasks that only humans can perform while transitioning tasks that can be replaced by robots to automation.

Case 2

USEN-ALMEX: Strategic partnership and exclusive sales agreement for the Servi Plus serving robot at golf courses in Japan

  • Golf course restaurants are facing a severe labor shortage due to remoteness/early-morning shifts. This has led to a lack of hall staff for serving, resulting in customer dissatisfaction and a decrease in the number of restaurant patrons.

  • Enhanced restaurant operations by introducing Servi to ensure prompt service during peak hours.
