Philadelphia, PA (September 8, 2026) — Lula Commerce today announced a partnership with f'real, the self-serve milkshake and smoothie program from Rich Products installed in more than 17,000 convenience stores, foodservice locations, and college campuses worldwide. The partnership gives f'real operators a turnkey path to extend their program to third-party delivery through Lula-powered ordering on DoorDash, Uber Eats, and Grubhub.
Under the partnership, retailers operating a f'real Self Serve Blender can quickly make the full f'real lineup, including signature milkshakes made with real milk, fruit smoothies, and limited-edition seasonal flavors, available on leading third-party delivery marketplaces. Lula manages menu setup, pricing, inventory synchronization, and order management from a single platform, making it easy for retailers to offer f'real digitally, whether they are already selling through delivery marketplaces or just getting started.
“Our retail partners are always looking for innovative ways to maximize their in-store investments and drive incremental sales, especially without adding strain on store labor," said Ashley Abeel, Director, f'real Beverage & Equipment. "By partnering with Lula Commerce, we’re making it incredibly simple for operators using our Self Serve Blenders to unlock a lucrative new digital revenue channel.”
f'real machines blend fresh milkshakes and smoothies on demand from frozen cups, with no scooping, measuring, or pouring required. Pairing that low-labor footprint with Lula's marketplace management gives operators a path to monetize their f'real program through delivery without adding staff or back-of-house complexity.
"f'real has built one of the most recognizable foodservice programs in convenience retail, and the demand is already there in stores," said Adit Gupta, Co-founder and CEO at Lula Commerce. "Bringing those products to digital ordering channels is a natural fit. Operators get a new revenue stream from equipment they already own, and customers get on-demand access to a brand they already love."
