24/7 fresh employee catering: Foodji expands to Augsburg

• From May, the Munich-based food tech provider Foodji will also be supplying healthy and wholesome meals to businesses in Augsburg.

• One of the first customers in the region is aircraft manufacturer Airbus, which is already using the Foodji vending machines at other German sites to cater for its shift workers.  

• The automated catering concept offers companies a modern, flexible and economical alternative to the canteen.  

Munich, May 25, 2025 - Munich-based food tech provider Foodji is further expanding its presence in southern Germany: Since May, the company has now also been active in Augsburg - another milestone on the way to establishing healthy and fresh meals as standard in every workplace.

Foodji has developed an intelligent food vending machine that offers companies an affordable and flexible alternative to traditional company catering. This is particularly beneficial for companies that cannot afford their own canteen. With the help of AI-supported software and an automated supply chain, the smart vending machines provide freshly prepared meals around the clock. The range includes over 300 main courses, breakfast dishes and baked goods.  

Aircraft manufacturer Airbus relies on Foodji

One of the first customers in Augsburg is the aircraft manufacturer Airbus, which already uses Foodji at several German sites. "Foodji's flexible catering concept has absolutely proven itself for us," says Ole Stechert, Head of Catering, Food & Beverage Management and responsible for company catering at Airbus in Germany. "We see employee catering as a central component of individual well-being - and therefore as the basis for the motivation, productivity and satisfaction of our employees. With this in mind, we are all the more pleased to be able to offer them wholesome meals around the clock at our Augsburg site. Foodji has proven to be the perfect complement to our canteens."

With the move to Augsburg, Foodji is consolidating its market position in southern Germany. "Augsburg is a key location for us in realizing our vision of making healthy food available in every workplace in Germany," explains Thorsten Schaar, Vice President Sales at Foodji. "The city impresses as an economically strong location with industrial diversity - from mechanical engineering, including robotics and automation, to environmental technology and logistics. It combines economic dynamism with a strong industrial backbone. Its convenient location between Munich, Nuremberg and Ulm also makes Augsburg the ideal starting point for further expanding our supply network in the future. We are primarily targeting the many medium-sized companies in the region, whose employees often do not have access to balanced catering in the workplace. We are also looking at larger companies where our solution can usefully supplement or even replace existing company restaurants."

Foodji continues to grow

The signs at Foodji point to growth: in the past two years, the scale-up has almost quadrupled its turnover. In January 2025, the company also announced an expansion of its Series A financing to 28 million US dollars and extended its availability to the Hanover site. With the fresh capital, Foodji is driving forward the scaling of its business model and underlining its ambition to expand its leading role in the market for intelligent employee catering.
