This case focuses on the issues surrounding whether the Coca-Cola® Freestyle® machine should be installed at specific quick-service restaurants (QSR). The case explores how to quantify the service performance of the Freestyle® compared to traditional fountain drink dispensers. Also, the nature of specific QSR processes (ordering, food preparation and delivery) could impact whether a Freestyle® is appropriate. The case is designed for use in upper-division undergraduate courses in operations, consumer behavior and strategy.
