OUR BUSINESS – ME GROUP INNOVATION
Our heritage has always been about product innovation, and this remains an important element of ME Group’s growth strategy as we continue to diversify
We have a dedicated in-house R&D team of 50+ engineers focused on creating new complementary services and evolving the services offered across our existing estate in response to ever-changing consumer needs, whilst maximising return on investment.
Our R&D facility in France plays a key role in the identification of new market opportunities and new product industrialisation, undertaking pilot product testing prior to large-scale production in Eastern Europe and China.
Over our long history, we have developed an enormous range of automated vending solutions, which started with photo ID via photobooths and now also includes automated laundry services, digital printing kiosks and foodservice vending equipment.
Today, our key areas of investment are focused on:
New product development to a state-of-the-art user experience, backed by the latest technology
Developing an omnichannel approach and leveraging digital functionalities, to enhance our brands and leverage new business models
Implementing sustainable solutions across our estate and minimising our carbon footprint
