At FPP we consider the sharing of content and knowledge to be one of our principal responsibilities. We’ve created FPP Checkout to allow us to deliver against this.

The purpose of this platform is to simplify the consumption of content. With so many sources in both the offline and online world, it’s easy to fall behind on essential reading. Checkout finds relevant, up-to-date information and delivers it to you in one easily-accessible environment. What’s more, we also use Checkout to provide FPP category analysis and opinion whenever and wherever relevant.

Checkout is a platform designed with you in mind. And that doesn’t just apply to the content we deliver, but also the way in which we deliver it. We provide information that isn’t just relevant to the industry as a whole, but relevant to you as an individual.

If you click on ‘My Account’, you’ll be able to select the categorical content that is of interest to you. This will allow us to prioritise the content that we know you like.

We use a number of sources for the articles featured on Checkout. Whilst we won’t necessarily cover all of the publications you access, below is a list of the most common to try and give you as much as possible in one place:

Startup ‘Karakuri’ offers robotic meal preparation service

Karakuri – which takes its name from the traditional Japanese mechanised puppets – was founded in 2018 by Simon Watt and Barney Wragg, two friends and former colleagues who had worked together at computer chip design firm ARM.

The company is developing robots to prepare freshly-made, customisable, ready-to-eat meals. Its DK-One robot – currently at the prototype stage – can serve up meals adjusted for portion size and dietary requirements from up to 48 ingredients. The company claims the robot can output a meal every 10 seconds.

“Consumers are looking for food retailers and restaurants to offer menus that can be tailored to their specific needs and dietary goals”.
