A good pineapple machine can create excitement and increase pineapple sales.

These machines will automatically peel, core and slice your customer’s pineapple for them in a matter of seconds.

People who hate preparing pineapple (which is most people) will jump at the chance to get their pineapple prepared for them quickly while they wait.

Others will buy a pineapple just to see the machine work; it is pretty cool to watch; we can’t blame them.

There are a few different pineapple machines out there. These are the best of the best.

 

#1 PineOmatic by Zumex

Topping off our list, we have the PineOmatic from Zumex.

This bad boy can process pineapple sizes 6,7, and 8 and it only takes 30 seconds to process each pineapple.

There is also storage on the machine for 8 pineapples, and the waste capacity can hold the waste of 40 pineapples.

So what makes this one the best overall?

It has the smallest footprint of all the pineapple machines out there and is a little less expensive, so it helps with your bottom line and doesn’t take up a lot of room.

The only real downside with this pineapple core machine is that it only does pineapple slices and won’t do pineapple chunks or sticks. That said, slices are generally the most popular option.

Pros

• Smaller footprint than the competitors
• Less Expensive
• The waste container can hold the waste of up to 40 pineapples
• Precesses size 6,7, and 8 pineapples

Cons

• Only does slices, no chunks or sticks

#2 Zummo Isla

Next up, we have another excellent pineapple machine with the Isla by Zummo.

This machine slices and dices a pineapple in just 15 seconds. The Isla is able to cut the pineapple into slices, chunks, or sticks, whichever you prefer, and the pineapple pieces are deposited into a container for your convenience.

The only real downside on this machine is that it does have a larger footprint than our top model and it is a little more expensive.

That said, it does bring a bit more to the table in terms of the speed it can process the pineapple and the fact that it can do pineapple chunks and sticks. So the extra expense and size could certainly be worth it.

Pros

• Processes pineapples quickly
• Can do pineapple slices, chunks or sticks
• Zummo Cloud easily and effectively manages the pineapple corer vending unit’s location and status 24/7
• Can be designed with your store logo and branding

Cons

• Larger footprint
• A little more expensive

 

#3 Pinabar

Rounding out the list, we have the Pinabar machine.

This is another great machine that is sure to attract attention and increase pineapple sales in your supermarket.

This machine can process a pineapple in just 20 seconds and core the pineapple and slices it into sticks or leaves you with a whole cored pineapple that you can cut up yourself.

 This machine can also be decorated with your branding and logo so it is a part of your business.

The negative with this machine is that it only cuts the pineapple into sticks or gives you a whole-cored pineapple. You can’t get slices or chunks.

It is also slightly larger and more expensive than our ranked model but is still an excellent machine.

Pros

• Can give you a whole-cored pineapple or sticks
• Processes pineapples quickly
• It can be designed with your store’s logo and branding

Cons

• Doesn’t cut the pineapple into slices or chunks
• Slightly larger in footprint and price

 

Benefits Of Having A Pineapple Machine In Your Grocery Store

Having a pineapple machine in your grocery store comes with a host of benefits that can significantly enhance the shopping experience and potentially increase store revenue. Firstly, these machines simplify the process of pineapple coring, making it an effortless task for customers. This convenience is a key factor in encouraging shoppers to buy pineapples more often, as it removes the daunting prospect of preparing them at home.

Moreover, the presence of a pineapple machine is likely to boost pineapple sales. With the fruit ready to eat and easily accessible, customers are more inclined to make a purchase they might have otherwise skipped. This can lead to a noticeable increase in the fruit’s turnover, ensuring that your produce section remains vibrant and fresh.

Additionally, many pineapple machines offer customization options, allowing for the incorporation of a store’s branding and logos. This not only enhances the visual appeal of the produce section but also strengthens brand recognition among customers. By integrating the store’s identity into this unique service, it fosters a more personalized shopping experience, reinforcing customer loyalty and distinguishing your store from competitors.

 

Wrap Up

There you have the best pineapple core machines for supermarkets and grocery stores. 

All 3 of these are quality machines, but they aren’t all the same. Our top choice is the smallest and cheapest, but it only does pineapple slices. 

The Zummo Isla can do pineapple slices, chunks, and sticks, but it does have a slightly larger footprint and price tag.

The Pinebar is the only machine on the list that can give you a whole-cored pineapple, and it also does sticks but nothing else.

Overall the choice is yours as to what you prefer. You really can’t go wrong with any of them.
