CHValora, a Swiss retail company owning brands like k kiosk and avec, has transferred the operation and restocking of its vending machines to Boostbar, a Zurich-based provider of food and beverage vending solutions. This partnership allows Valora to focus more on its core business while retaining control over product selection and promotions. The collaboration aims to enhance customer experience through Boostbar’s software and user interface. Valora plans to expand by installing vending machines at gas stations, particularly those previously lacking traditional shops and snack options. Currently, Valora operates several hundred vending machines located primarily next to k kiosk and Avec stores, offering snacks, drinks, and some non-food items such as contraceptives and pregnancy tests.
