Cuckoo announced its participation in the '2026 Seoul Cafe Show,' taking place from November 11 to 14 at COEX in Samseong-dong, Seoul.
Now in its 25th year, the Seoul Cafe Show is a leading exhibition in South Korea that showcases the latest trends in the coffee, beverage, dessert, and cafe equipment industries. Cuckoo is expanding its business into the commercial appliance market, leveraging its expertise in kitchen appliances.
At this exhibition, Cuckoo plans to broaden its connections with the cafe and restaurant sectors and introduce various products that small business owners and aspiring entrepreneurs can use to operate cafes.
Cuckoo will present an experiential booth called 'CAFÉ de CUCKOO,' designed to resemble a cafe. The warm wooden-toned space will feature over 60 products essential for coffee extraction, menu preparation, and store management. Visitors will have the opportunity to explore the products and experience their key functions firsthand.
The booth will consist of five themed zones. The main area, 'CAFÉ de CUCKOO Coffee Bar,' will showcase three models of fully automatic espresso machines, 'The Crema,' along with an electronic coffee grinder. It will also feature the 'Inspure Steam100 Barista Water Purifier,' which automatically brews drip coffee with water heated to 100°C, and the 'Zero Back Slim Barista Ice Purifier.' Attendees can sample espresso, lattes, and drip coffee while enjoying the aroma of the coffee beans.
In the 'CUCKOO Gourmet Collection Zone,' cooking appliances such as AI triple-free induction cookers, direct-fire steam ovens, toasters, blenders, and bread makers will be displayed alongside ice makers, dishwashers, and Eco-Wale Cube food waste processors.
Visitors will be able to see live demonstrations showcasing the AI induction's overflow prevention feature and various kitchen appliance applications. Additionally, an AI barista water purifier, which has not yet been released, will also be featured at the cafe show.
A 'Cooking Robot Zone' will introduce an AI cooking robot developed in collaboration with food tech company BOTINKIT, which recently began sales. The cooking robot, equipped with automatic cooking, plating, and cleaning functions, will be demonstrated daily to showcase its operation and present alternatives for efficient cafe and restaurant management.
The 'Cafe Hall Zone' will present the 'Power Clone' lineup of cordless vacuum cleaners, humidifiers, ultra-slim ceiling fans, and products necessary for store management, along with recommendations for air purifiers suitable for different store sizes. The 'Inspure Solution Zone' will feature six types of commercial POU water filters and automatic flushing bidets, providing guidance on water purification and hygiene management products tailored to specific business needs, along with rental consultations.
Cuckoo will offer discounts of up to 70% on popular products at the Seoul Cafe Show. All visitors who share their experiences after visiting the booth will receive drip bags, and a drawing will be held to give away a Cuckoo electronic coffee grinder. Visitors who like the cafe show post on Cuckoo's official Instagram and share their experience will receive drip bags, while those who follow the official account will receive tarpaulin bags on a first-come, first-served basis.
A Cuckoo representative stated, "We prepared this exhibition to allow visitors to directly experience the functions necessary for cafe operations, from coffee extraction to cooking and store management using Cuckoo products. We will continue to introduce products and services that enable people to enjoy better coffee conveniently at cafes and homes."
