The Infinite Kitchen, first introduced in select locations, uses
a futuristic producing line of robotic chefs to craft salads like
Kale Caesar and Hummus Crunch with exacting standards.
Ingredients are divided, mixed, and maintained at ideal
temperatures, ensuring consistency and quality. While robots
handle the preparation, human team members manage machine
refilling and finishing touches.

lines. This approach allows Sweetgreen to refine the Infinite
Kitchen system while maintaining the personal touch of human
interactions. The automated kitchen also promises increased
productivity, with a seven percent reduction in workforce costs
reported across participating locations.
Sweetgreen, founded in 2007, has grown into a national
chain with 245 locations across the US, aiming to improve fast
food with fresh, healthy options. By next year, Sweetgreen plans
to apply the technology to all new restaurants.

The cost of installing (安装) the system, about $450,000—
$550,000 per location, is seen as a contribution in future savings.
Sweetgreen co-founder Nicolas Jammet highlights that no
employees have been laid off due to automation; instead, they
have been rearranged to customer-focused roles.
Despite challenges like reduced office lunch crowds in
Chicago in the past three years, the Willis Tower location
continues to serve thousands of customers daily. The Infinite
Kitchen aims to handle peak-hour demand more effectively,
speeding up service while maintaining high-quality meals.
