Lukas Podolski’s Kebab Franchise to Deploy 2,400 Autonomous Food Robots

Circus SE, a leader in AI robotics, has signed an agreement with Mangal x LP10, a well-known kebab chain, to launch up to 2,400 autonomous food robots from 2025. The collaboration aims to incorporate these robots into flagship stores in the Cologne/Duesseldorf region initially.
