BURLINGTON, MA -- Keurig Green Mountain Inc. and Evoca S.p.A have partnered to introduce the Keurig K4000 Café System brewing system for the away-from-home channel, including workplaces, hospitals, hospitality and other commercial settings.

The new machine couples Evoca's commercial brewing system manufacturing experience with Keurig's single-cup brewing equipment expertise. Itwill be manufactured by EVOCA Group in its Gaggio Montano, Italy facility and distributed throughout the United States and Canada in partnership with Keurig.

The K4000 Café System uses Keurig K-Cup capsules and milk powder to deliver lattes and cappuccinos. In addition to cappuccinos and lattes, any K-Cup pod variety can be enjoyed on its own through the K4000 Café System.

"More than two-thirds of away-from-home beverage consumption occurs in the afternoon, when people are looking for the more varied and indulgent pick-me-up beverage options," said Michael Pengue, senior vice-president and general manager of Keurig's away-from-home division. "The K4000 Café System will allow us to uniquely address the needs of consumers in the workplace and other commercial settings, especially those who prefer more specialty and gourmet coffee beverage options over traditional hot coffee."

Darcy Clarkson, Keurig senior vice-president and general manager of appliances added: "Multi-format and well-designed commercial coffee equipment is in high demand as companies have increasingly begun to use workplace amenities to help attract and retain talent. The K4000 Café System will raise the bar by consistently delivering on taste, quality, and ease of use."

The K4000 Café System was in the spotlight at the National Automatic Merchandising Association's NAMA show in Las Vegas last week and will launch this summer.
