On March 14, a vending machine handling "Ragueneau" products was installed in front of "Ragueneau Hirosaki Hyakkokumachi Main Store" (Hyakkokumachi, Hirosaki City, TEL 0172-33-2122 ).

The store is run by "Ragueneau Sasaki", known for its custard cake "Life" and "Pastry chef apple sticks". Located on the 1st floor of the head office building, it sells "Lagunoo" products and limited desserts, and also supports eat-in. It was renewed in July last year.

The vending machine is compatible with normal temperature refrigeration and can sell 10 types of products. The current lineup includes 5 types of "life", "pastry chef apple sticks" and "polo chocolate". The price will be discounted by 10% from the regular price. Naoya Nemoto, a staff member of the sales division, said, "This is part of our efforts to reduce food loss by discounting products that are near the expiration date. We are the first to sell at a discount."

In addition to cash payment, we also accept transportation IC cards, cashless payments, and QR code payments. It operates 24 hours a day and sells on regular holidays. Mr. Nemoto is confident that "it may be easier to buy because you can buy even one."

"I would like to continue to take on new challenges even with Corona, and we plan to continue to add more vending machines, and we want to deliver our products to as many people as possible."
