How Technology Is Helping Frontline Workers Get Healthy Food

Blendid

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga Interested in investing in Blendid’s campaign? Click here to get started! Consumer demand for healthy food options has skyrocketed in recent years; COVID-19 put health on many people's minds and changed consumers’ standards as well as their priorities. A recent study showed that 54% of all consumers care more about the healthfulness of their food in 2020 than they did in 2010. Healthfulness is now the biggest determining factor in purchasing food, even more than taste and price. However, healthy food is not always accessible, especially for frontline workers or individuals who work overnight shifts. While McDonald’s and other fast-food chains of the world operate on a late-night or 24-hour model, you would be hard-pressed to find a health food store that is open late and can serve populations of workers like nurses, truck drivers, and more. For these late-night workers, their only real option is often unhealthy fast-food, and even fast food has become less of an option in the post-pandemic world. COVID-19 and labor shortages have resulted in fewer retailers with 24/7 service. Because of this, more and more previously 24/7 establishments like McDonald’s are closing early and leaving overnight shift workers without any options. Blendid, a robotic and AI-enabled food automation solution company, is creating clever solutions to this problem. The company has seen firsthand the success of a fully autonomous robotic kiosk for smoothies. Their kiosks operate in universities, travel centers, retail stores and hospitals across the country. The kiosks can operate 24/7, which gives consumers access to healthy and affordable food around the clock while the company is able to maintain low operational costs. Blendid’s 24/7 kiosks provide healthy alternatives for workers when they need them most. The company has kiosks at two Love’s Travel Stops in California and a location at Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta, among others. A truck driver who frequents one of the Love’s Travel Stops shared, “That juice-making robot is awesome. I loved watching it. Truck drivers need raw nutrition." The company’s robotic model enables fresh food to be offered where it previously hasn’t been and during all hours of the day, not just traditional daytime working hours. Not to mention, all Blendid locations offer the capability of ordering ahead and customizing ingredients to fit customers’ needs and nutritional wants. The company has seen a 267% revenue increase year-over-year which is unsurprising given the consumer demand for healthy and sustainable food. Not only is the kiosk model contactless, but also being open 24/7 increases the accessibility of healthy food. For college students or late-night workers, who typically have limited access to healthier foods, Blendid is giving people options they didn’t previously have. If projections are to be believed, the food robotics industry is only going to continue to grow. The global market for food robotics was estimated at $2.1 billion in 2022, and the market is projected to reach $4B by 2026. Companies like Blendid will be instrumental in the industry by providing unique experiences and options for consumers on the go. Technology is helping bring healthy and affordable food where people need it most. Blendid is currently hosting a raise to further expand its ingenious concept. The company is currently working on expanding to 10 additional geographies in the near future and has 500+ kiosks in contract. Previously, it raised more than $26 million which translated into significant revenue growth. Blendid could be well-positioned as an industry leader and seems eager to meet the consumer demand for on-the-go 24/7 healthy food. Interested in investing and being a part of their growth story? Click here to read more about Blendid’s raise and how to invest! This article was originally on Benzinga here. Sunnyvale-based Blendid is revolutionizing the future of food service with its proprietary food automation platform (foodOS™), which efficiently and safely prepares and serves a range of healthy, fresh, and delicious food. A pioneer of the future of food service, Blendid's first concept in the market is an autonomous, contactless kiosk that uses robotics, machine vision, artificial intelligence, and healthy ingredients to create delicious smoothies that are customized to meet the unique health and dietary preferences of each consumer. Founded in 2015 by seasoned Silicon Valley entrepreneurs Vipin Jain, Venki Avalur, and Vijay Dodd, Blendid is improving the consumer experience by offering safe, cost-effective, and personalized food on-demand, while also reducing complexities and costs for the operators. Blendid has raised more $20M to date from a mix of venture and crowdfunding investors and is currently raising its Series B investment round.

These Bonds Might Be Useful Investments For All Stages Of Life

Compound Banc

Investing is a lifelong process that many recommend beginning as soon as they start earning money, but not all investment vehicles are suited for all stages of life. The choice of investment can change at different stages, whether someone is starting their career or is on the verge of retirement. When young and single, people can generally take chances with their money — and potentially see a greater return on investment — than is possible when married with young children or approaching retirement. But now, there’s an investment opportunity that brings potentially lucrative real estate investing to people at all stages of life. Financial technology (fintech) company Compound Real Estate Bonds Inc. is offering real estate savings bonds that are accessible to everyone. For as little as $10, everyday investors can buy a Compound Real Estate Bond and receive a fixed 7.00% annual yield compound return on their investments. Compounding happens when earnings are reinvested to generate additional earnings over time. It’s Easy To Buy Compound Bonds Every day investors can use the company’s digital app to purchase Compound Bonds. Compound lends the investors funds to cash-generating mortgages, or invests in the properties. The borrowers repay Compound with interest on the loans, and the proceeds are disbursed — with interest — to bondholders. Compound Bonds don’t have a maturity date, so investors can keep earning as long as they want or cash them out at any time. Compound doesn’t charge fees for maintenance, setup, redemption or advisers, which eliminates many roadblocks to real estate investing. By investing bond proceeds in real estate, Compound gives its customers access to what historically has often been considered among the most stable investment classes. The company reports that it invests in high-quality real estate – including residential, commercial and industrial properties – which is intended to give it a diversified portfolio of income-producing properties and real estate related debt. Compound says its diversified real estate investing approach delivers outperformance by generating sustainable income and competitive capital returns. Compared to the average low return one would earn if putting money in REITs, it might make more sense to invest in a Compound Bond generating 7.00%. Compound Banc is a next generation financial technology company, not a traditional bank. We strive to unlock financial freedom for all by building a simple financial ecosystem that makes it possible for the everyday consumer to access assets that have historically been reserved for Wall Street, not Main Street. The firm is known for managing real estate bond offerings to non-accredited investors. Compound Real Estate Bonds (CREB) brings private real estate to the everyday investor’s portfolio without the complexity of it. CREB will invest bond proceeds in real estate debts investments and income-generating commercial real estate across key property types on a global basis. The firm is led by a team with decades of expertise in real estate and alternative asset management and indexing. Our professionals work in offices across the globe, united by a single purpose: unlocking access for everyday investors. This post contains sponsored advertising content.

Additional altcoins are available from important categories like DeFi, GameFi, Metaverse, and others. Essential tools and features users are familiar with have carried over into the Crypto Futures platform. Long and short positions are still available via market, limit, or stop orders. Advanced order types and risk management tools are once again included. All-New Margin Allocation System Gives Traders More Control One of the most significant and notable changes is to the margin allocation system. PrimeXBT, in the past, offered a cross-margin system at up to 200x leverage on cryptocurrencies. How much leverage was applied to a position was based on sizing. In the new and improved Crypto Futures product, leverage can be applied via a cross or isolated margin system and adjusted via a sliding scale. The margin allocation system and how much leverage to apply can be modified at any time and will impact all available positions and pending orders. The new system gives more precise control over how much risk is being applied to the capital exposed, allowing for the fine-tuning of trading to suit any risk appetite. All information is made crystal clear when an order is placed or modified, so traders always understand the impact of their decisions. Getting Technical With Powerful PrimeXBT Trading Tools Created for both beginners and the trading professional, PrimeXBT Crypto Futures features built-in technical analysis software from industry leader TradingView. Traders never have to leave the platform to enjoy best-in-class charting tools. Draw trend lines, turn on technical indicators, or look for the direction of the trend. Orders that are placed appear on the charts in real-time, giving traders an accurate look at the bigger picture to determine stop-loss placement, profit targets, and more. Open orders are also added to the area below the chart, providing a snapshot of the details of each trade. Information includes the open price, liquidation price, unrealized PnL, margin type, and much more. PrimeXBT will continue to offer essential support services such as PrimeXBT Trading Academy, where traders can learn how to use the tools and information above. The educational website is filled with market updates, trading tips, and more. PrimeXBT will continue focusing on its copy trading experience and offer weekly trading competitions through PrimeXBT Contests. Preview Summary Other aspects of PrimeXBT also aren’t going anywhere. For example, access to traditional markets like commodities, stock indices, and forex currencies will remain available separately from the Crypto Futures platform. The same commitment to customer service and quality and the same reliable trading engine will power the new and improved platform. The PrimeXBT mobile application for Android and iPhone will eventually receive an update to include the PrimeXBT Crypto Futures platform when it arrives in the coming weeks. Interesting users who cannot wait to get their hands on the all-new PrimeXBT trading product can register for a free account today and be ready the second it goes live.
