Salad chain Sweetgreen buys kitchen robotics startup Spyce - NewsBreak

This week, California-based fast casual salad chain Sweetgreen announced plans to go all in on automation with the acquisition of Spyce. Founded in 2015, the Boston-based startup started making waves a few years back as a spinout of MIT mechanical engineering students. First serving up food at the school's dining hall, the team ultimately opened a pair of automated restaurants in the Boston area. The startup notes, "our Spyce restaurants will stay open at this time."
