The company also introduced the CA-M, an autonomous, robot-assisted provisioning system designed for military and security-critical applications, receiving supplier certification for U.S. government institutions and the Department of Defense in June 2025. Circus SE's strategic positioning focuses on addressing labor shortages and inefficiencies in the food service sector through AI-powered robotics, with plans to deliver CA-1 units to clients such as REWE supermarkets and HEM gas stations starting in autumn 2025.
