Gorilla Nutrilla Launches Fresh Functional Shake Machines with KORE in the West Midlands

Gorilla Nutrilla is pleased to launch its fresh functional shake machines with KORE, bringing a new nutritional experience to leisure centre users across the West Midlands.

The launch follows conversations supported through EVOLVE, helping connect Gorilla Nutrilla with KORE and opening the opportunity to introduce fresh sports nutrition in a modern, accessible format.

For Gorilla Nutrilla, nutritional experience is key. Members increasingly expect more than standard vending or bottled options. Our machines prepare fresh shakes in seconds, using premium powders and freshly mixed water based preparation, giving customers convenient access to protein, collagen, electrolytes and other functional nutrition.

The machines sit naturally within a leisure centre environment. They support members before and after training, swimming, classes, gym sessions and community sport. For users who already buy sports nutrition, the machine offers speed, consistency and convenience. For those who have never considered a shake before, the format makes functional nutrition more approachable and creates a new moment of engagement inside the leisure journey.

Gorilla Nutrilla operates a fully managed service model. The company installs and manages the machines, handles maintenance, refilling, product testing, calibration and day to day support, and works with leisure partners to make the experience simple for staff and members.

The KORE rollout is an important step in demonstrating how fresh functional nutrition can fit into community leisure centres, not only boutique gyms or premium clubs. By combining technology, premium product quality and operational support, Gorilla Nutrilla aims to help leisure operators improve member experience, create new engagement and introduce sports nutrition in a way that feels relevant, accessible and easy to use.

As Gorilla Nutrilla continues to expand across the UK, the partnership with KORE in the West Midlands highlights the growing role of functional drinks in mainstream leisure, recovery and everyday wellness.

Andrius Mikalauskas, Co Founder and CDO of Gorilla Nutrilla, said: "We are very pleased to launch with KORE in the West Midlands. This is exactly the type of forward thinking leisure environment where we believe our machines can add real value to members, while keeping the operational model simple for the venue."
