The Sweetgreen Salad Chain Gives Kitchen Automation a Try With Its Acquisition of Spyce
Salad chain Sweetgreen announced Tuesday that it has bought Spyce, a Boston restaurant company that made a name for itself with its automated kitchen.
Since its founding in 2015, Spyce has raised $24.88 million from investors, including famed chef Daniel Boulud, according to Pitchbook. The company’s robotic kitchen and conveyor belts are able to cook and serve its warm bowls and salads without any human intervention. Spyce has two restaurant locations, both in Boston.
The acquisition is expected to close in the third quarter this year. Financial terms were not disclosed.
