(SeaPRwire) – SHANGHAI, April 2, 2026 — Shanghai Hi-Dolphin Robot Technology Co., Ltd. (“Hi-Dolphin Robotics”) has announced that its fully intelligent coffee robot systems reached deployment across 65 countries and regions as of February 15, marking a game-changing shift of the global service economy toward the “Light Store Era.”
Powered by artificial intelligence, COFE+ digitizes the craftsmanship of award-winning champion baristas, delivering consistent premium quality across millions of cups tested in more than 1,000 scenarios worldwide. The system can replicate signature coffee flavors from 197 countries, with taste profiles on par with well-established specialty cafes. Each serving comes with precise latte art and custom 3D-printed designs on milk foam, turning every beverage into a unique, one-of-a-kind item.
The Light Store Model: Reimagined Operational Efficiency
COFE+’s forward-thinking business model offers four core advantages:
· Small Footprint: Only 2.35 square meters of space required
· Low Upkeep: Just 15 minutes of daily restocking time needed
· Long Service Life: More than 10 years of operational durability
· Lower Operating Expenses: Over 90% reduction in related costs
For traditional cafes, expenses including rent, labor, and utilities typically make up over 60% of total revenue. COFE+ drastically reduces the break-even point through unattended operation and precise consumption management. Operators report sustained profitability even at consumer-friendly price points, with gross margins surpassing 50%. A single employee can remotely control up to 10 units via mobile applications, cutting operational costs by 90%.
Global Regulatory Compliance and Industry Recognition
COFE+ has obtained certifications from major international regulatory bodies including the EU, U.S. FDA, UK, and regional agencies across the Middle East, Asia-Pacific, and Southeast Asia. The system operates stably in temperatures ranging from -20°C to 35°C, integrates local payment systems, and can be adapted to fit local ingredient supplies and infrastructure requirements.
Installed in thousands of landmark locations worldwide, from airports to shopping malls, corporate headquarters to cultural sites, COFE+ provides services to Fortune Global 500 companies and leading organizations including Sinopec, China Mobile and Bank of China.
Future Development Vision
“We aim to support service industry workers by cutting down their repetitive workload, make premium products affordably accessible to everyone, and let people enjoy flavors from all over the world without leaving home,” said Dr. Han Feizi, founder of Hi-Dolphin Robotics.
Since unveiling its 6th generation model at HostMilano 2025, COFE+ has completed five rounds of venture capital financing, making it the highest-funded enterprise in the global coffee robot sector.
The COFE+ innovation proves how AI can transform traditional industries, while creating sustainable, scalable business opportunities across the globe.
