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 Juicer by Business Type
Hotels: Buffet & Self-Service
In hotels, the best orange juicer depends on breakfast format and guest volume. For boutique hotels or low-demand breakfasts, Z1 or Viva Advance are sufficient.
For high-consumption buffets, Z14 is the most balanced option, offering 16 fruits per minute, automatic filtering, and 14 L peel containers.
For large hotels, resorts, chains or buffets with very concentrated demand peaks, Z40 or Z40 Advance are the natural upgrade, especially when exceeding 150 glasses per day.
Supermarkets & Retail
In supermarkets, the juicer is not just a machine: it is a point of sale. It must be visible, hygienic, autonomous, and easy for customers to use.
For small supermarkets or gourmet stores, Z14 Cabinet or Z14 Contactless are ideal. Z14 Cabinet fits compact retail spaces, while Z14 Contactless adds a cashless payment system.
For large stores, Z40 Advance Cabinet or Z40 Cabinet are recommended. The first improves hygiene and cleaning speed, while the second offers maximum waste autonomy with 100 L capacity.
Bars & Cafés
In bars and cafés, the priority is speed, compact size, versatility, and easy cleaning. If juice is a secondary product, Z1 or Viva Advance are sufficient.
If juice is a key part of the menu, Z06 is the most recommended option due to its versatility and capacity for medium-demand environments.
Fruit Shops
In fruit shops, fresh juice becomes an additional revenue stream, increasing average ticket size and reinforcing a healthy brand perception.
For small shops, Z06 is suitable for counter service. For self-service or bottled juice, Z14 Cabinet is more complete. For high-traffic stores, Z40 Cabinet is ideal.
Key Factors When Choosing a Professional Juicer
Daily Volume
The first criterion is the number of glasses you expect to sell or serve. A café preparing 20 juices per day does not require the same machine as a supermarket with continuous self-service.
- 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 during demand peaks. A Z1 may be sufficient for small locations, but if there are queues, machines like the Z40 range are required, reaching 40 fruits per minute, while Z14 and Viva Advance operate 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 quickly but also to avoid constant interruptions to refill fruit or empty waste.
For example, Z14 Cabinet incorporates a 16 kg basket and 50 kg peel collection, while Z40 Cabinet increases waste capacity up to 100 L, a clear advantage for supermarkets and intensive self-service areas.
Cleaning, Hygiene & Maintenance
Cleaning directly impacts juice quality, business image and staff time. Zummo machines are designed to simplify daily maintenance, with cleaning typically completed in 6–7 minutes thanks to washable parts.
Additionally, models such as Viva Advance, Z06, Z14 and Z40 include an automatic filter that prevents pulp 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.
