Managing a coffee business isn’t easy – tracking operations, maintaining quality and ensuring consistency across locations can feel overwhelming. Vendon, a leader in IoT and payment solutions for the coffee and vending industry, has introduced an innovative IoT solution designed specifically for traditional espresso machines. Now compatible with any espresso machine, Vendon’s technology provides the insights needed to perfect every cup, streamline operations, and simplify business management.   
 

Tackling real challenges for coffee operators  
 

Traditional coffee machine operators – whether manufacturers, coffee roasters, or Horeca managers – face a host of challenges that can impact their bottom line. From preventing clients from sourcing their own beans to maintaining quality and keeping machines running smoothly, these are everyday hurdles. Vendon’s IoT solution addresses these issues head-on, improving efficiency and ensuring consistency across the board.  
 

“We understand how tough it is for coffee businesses to manage all the little details, from quality control to machine upkeep. We created a solution that gives operators peace of mind – helping them manage multiple machines, keep up quality standards, and maintain equipment with less effort. It’s about making their workday easier and ensuring every cup of coffee is as great as the last,” said Rauls Avenitis, Project Manager at Vendon.  

How the IoT solution works  

Vendon’s system uses a combination of the vBox and the new BaristaBox to connect with espresso machines, transferring critical data to the Vendon Cloud. This platform allows operators to monitor all their machines, regardless of brand, from a single, user-friendly dashboard. The cloud-based setup provides instant access to essential reports and insights, making it simple to track coffee usage, monitor barista performance, and stay ahead of maintenance needs.  
 

Elevating coffee business operations  
 

This isn’t just about data – it’s about using that information to enhance operations. Vendon’s IoT connectivity solution empowers businesses to prevent revenue loss, enforce recipe standards, and extend machine life through proactive maintenance, all with minimal effort.
