Use case
Drinks, bars and supplements directly in the gym or sports facility.
For Fitness & Sport, the best choice is not the machine with the longest feature list. Throughput, range, ease of use and operating costs must fit the actual site.
Our recommendations are a curated selection of reviewed models and a starting point for your shortlist. Compare the relevant machines directly before making a final decision.

Rheavendors · Hot Drink Machines
The Rheavendors CB1 is Evoca Group's budget offering in the hot-beverage segment: bean-to-cup under EUR 2,500, powder-milk system for low maintenance overhead, and MDB-equipped for later cashless upgrade. For locations with fewer than 80 cups per day and limited budget, it is a solid choice—without premium expectations for taste or IoT capabilities.
from €2,400
Tomra · Reverse Vending Machines
The Tomra T9 is the reference machine for beverage container returns under Germany's single-use deposit system. With ~80 % market share in Europe, 15-inch touchscreen, Tomra Insight IoT platform and up to 2,000 units/hour, it sets the industry standard. For supermarkets from ~300 m² retail floor space, the clear first choice – yet its near-monopoly status is simultaneously its weakness and its strength.
from €8,500
JURA · Hot Drink Machines
JURA's dual-grinder flagship for continuous commercial operation – 32 specialities, TÜV-certified hygiene and P.E.P. brewing method. The revised Generation II (2023, Type 748/749) increases to 2700 W and 32 specialities; any buyer should always verify the generation. Strongest argument: turnkey package combining quality, hygiene and an active JURA service network – a genuine investment that pays off at ≥ 80 cups/day.
