- 100% Romanian project. The software solution as well as most of the equipment utilised in the construction of the stations is manufactured or assembled in Romania.

- With 16 stations, the network covers the central area of the capital city and the main interest and access points to other public transportation methods.

About Zepp

Zepp is a modern canteen concept located on the ground floor of the Equilibrium building. We guide our work by three core values: the freshness of the food, menu diversity, and customer care. We never compromise on food quality, thus, our food is cooked every day. Moreover, we are also making in-house bread, pizza dough, and everything required for the weekly menu to deliver a unique taste. Our head chef is personally making all the groceries selecting the finest vegetables and meat.

We have eliminated the rudimentary canteen food from our menu and included dishes with seafood, duck, and turkey, which are proteins that would never be found at a “canteen”. From space design to gathering feedback from our customers in order to develop menus from their preferences, we are doing our best to provide a great experience to our guests and ensure that they will always come back.
