There are many types of orange juicers on the market: manual, electric, lever-operated, professional press, automatic, and slow-press systems. For home use, the decision usually revolves around power, ease of cleaning, or tank size.
For a business, however, other factors come into play: number of glasses per day, autonomy, hygiene, service time, waste, maintenance, and profitability per glass.

Best orange juice machine according to your business model
For hotels: Buffet and Self-Service
In hotels, the best orange juicer depends on the type of breakfast and the number of guests. For a boutique hotel or a low-volume breakfast, Z1 or Viva Advance may be sufficient. For a high-consumption buffet, the most balanced option is Z14, because it offers 16 fruits per minute, automatic filter and 14 L peel containers.
For large hotels, resorts, chains or buffets with very concentrated demand peaks, the natural step is Z40 or Z40 Advance, especially when more than 150 glasses per day are needed.
For supermarkets and retail
In supermarkets, the juicer is not just a machine: it is a point of sale. It must be visible, hygienic, autonomous and easy to use by the customer.
For small supermarkets or gourmet stores, Z14 Cabinet or Z14 Contactless are the best options. Z14 Cabinet allows offering juice in retail without large spaces, while Z14 Contactless adds a cashless payment system that activates the machine after payment.
For large stores, the best option is Z40 Advance Cabinet or Z40 Cabinet. The first adds advantages in hygiene and fast cleaning; the second stands out for its enormous waste autonomy, with peel collection up to 100 L.
For bars and cafés
In bars and cafés, the priority is a combination of speed, compact size, versatility and ease of cleaning. If orange juice is a complementary product, Z1 or Viva Advance can cover daily demand with a reduced investment and little space.
If juice is an important part of the menu, the most recommended option is Z06, because it allows working with different citrus fruits and pomegranates, has a 6 kg basket and is designed for medium consumption businesses.
For fruit shops
In a fruit shop, fresh juice becomes a very profitable additional sales line: it makes use of fresh product, increases the average ticket and reinforces the healthy perception.
For small fruit shops, Z06 may be enough if service is done over the counter. If you want to offer self-service or sell bottles of freshly squeezed juice, Z14 Cabinet is a more complete solution due to its retail format and autonomy. For high-traffic fruit shops, Z40 Cabinet is the best option.
What to consider when choosing the best orange juicer
Juice volume per day
The first criterion is the number of glasses you expect to sell or serve. A café that prepares 20 juices per day does not need the same machine as a supermarket with continuous self-service throughout the day.
- Up to 30 glasses/day: Viva Advance or Z1
- Up to 50 glasses/day: Z06
- Up to 150 glasses/day: Z14 or Z14 Cabinet
- More than 150 glasses/day: Z40, Z40 Cabinet, Z40 Advance or Z40 Advance Cabinet
Service type: bar, buffet or self-service
If staff prepares the juice behind the bar, you can prioritize a compact and easy-to-clean model. If the customer serves themselves, it is advisable to choose a solution with greater autonomy, larger containers and a design oriented to retail or buffet.
For self-service, cabinet and contactless models are especially interesting because they reduce staff intervention and allow selling freshly squeezed juice instantly.
Juicing speed
Speed is key when there are demand peaks. A Z1 may be enough for a small place, but if you have queues you need a machine like those in the Z40 range, which reach 40 fruits per minute, while Z14 and Viva Advance work at 16 fruits per minute and Z06 at 10 fruits per minute.
Autonomy and waste capacity
In a professional environment, it is not only important to juice fast; it is also important not to stop constantly to refill fruit or empty peels.
For example, Z14 Cabinet incorporates a 16 kg basket and peel collection of 50 kg, while Z40 Cabinet increases peel collection up to 100 L, a clear advantage for supermarkets and intensive self-service areas.
Cleaning, hygiene and maintenance
In a professional juice machine, cleaning directly impacts juice quality, business image and team time. Zummo models are designed to simplify daily maintenance: regular cleaning is usually completed in 6–7 minutes thanks to washable parts.
Additionally, models such as Viva Advance, Z06, Z14 and Z40 include an automatic filter, which prevents pulp and seed accumulation, reduces blockages and minimizes cleaning stops. Z40 Advance and Z40 Advance Cabinet stand out for the QES® —Quick Exchange System—, which allows removing the tray and juicing kit in just 10 seconds, as well as including anti-insect protection.
