November 16, 2020

Kraft Heinz has introduced an automatic dispenser to provide touchless dispensing of condiments, according to a press release.

The dispenser holds 1.5 gallons of Heinz Ketchup, or any other foodservice condiment offered by Heinz, including mustard, mayonnaise, ranch and more. Consumers can wave their hand above the dispenser to provide a pre-portioned 0.5-ounce serving.

"As a partner to the foodservice industry, we wanted to do our part to develop a long-term, hands-free solution for operators, and we're pleased to report that 94% of consumers said they'd feel safe using this Heinz Keystone automatic dispenser when dining out," Molly Scott, director of category marketing, foodservice, Kraft Heinz, said in the release. "We hope to see our innovative condiment technology leveraged by restaurants, as well as sports stadiums, amusement parks, movie theaters and concert venues next year."
