KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 27 (Bernama) — Secure Robotics specialises in providing front-end automation solutions to the F&B, hospitality and engineering industries. Its latest product, the PuduBot S, is part of the most complete product range on the market, which caters to F&B businesses with high ceilings, outdoor dining, as well as restaurant owners seeking light or heavy-duty robot waiters.
Robot waiters have been around for many years, but came into prominence due to labour shortages during the Covid-19 pandemic. The Malaysian F&B industry is currently short of approximately 40,000 workers (The Star, 24 August 2022), compared to pre-Covid times. This shortfall is likely to continue to grow, with low foreign labour approval rates.
