• Leading player in home-make beverage machine market: the Company’s drink machine is the only dispenser of its kind. No other beverage dispenser has the same function as the drink machine does in the same small and light weight footprint, for as affordable a price. Also, compared to the Company’s product, most other dispensers are more time consuming, does not refrigerate the water, and do not mix the syrup to perfection like the Company’s drink machine. The Company is also the first to develop a carbonated beverage dispenser that uses thermoelectric technology for its 2 on-board reservoirs. The technology allows the drink machine to operate at a low voltage and keep energy costs low.
