White Castle is expanding its on-the-go footprint with a new automated kiosk at Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) in greater Fort Myers, Fla. Travelers can now enjoy freshly heated, ready-to-eat beef and chicken Sliders on demand — offering a quick, convenient option before a flight or as they arrive to enjoy the area’s premier beaches and islands.
The White Castle kiosk is part of a partnership with Just Baked, an automated food kiosk company, and Evolvending, an operator of automated dining solutions in travel hubs. This latest launch is located within RSW’s renovated terminal food court, which is transitioning to a vending-focused dining model designed to serve travelers efficiently in a high-traffic airport environment.
The fully automated unit features a curated menu of White Castle retail Sliders, including the iconic 100% beef Original Slider, Classic Cheese Sliders, the Cheddar Bacon Cheese Slider and the Chicken & Cheese Slider. Orders are prepared hot and ready for guests on demand, with minimal wait.
“Airports are all about speed, convenience and reliability, and this automated kiosk at RSW lets us deliver the White Castle experience in a world-class facility in a way that fits how people travel today,” said Sarah Paulson, director of retail marketing, innovation and licensing at White Castle. “By combining automation with our iconic Sliders thanks to our partnership with Just Baked and Evolvending, we’re meeting travelers where they are and rethinking what airport dining can look like.”
In addition to Fort Myers, White Castle operates an automated kiosk at Boston Logan International Airport and plans to expand its kiosk footprint to additional airports across the U.S., extending the brand’s reach to travelers in high-traffic transportation hubs and reinforcing its focus on accessibility in on-the-go settings.
