ARCADIA, Okla. -- Next Tuesday, POPS will launch a one-of-a-kind Soda Kiosk. This touchscreen kiosk will let POPS guests choose from more than 700 types of soda from its "Soda Ranch" and have their selection shipped anywhere in the United States. POPS will celebrate the launch of the kiosk with a ceremonial first order by Oklahoma 's First Lady, Kim Henry.
Chesapeake Energy Corp. chairman and CEO Aubrey McClendon opened POPS 66, a combination gas station/convenience store/soda emporium and restaurant, last August. It is unaffiliated with Oklahoma City-based Chesapeake.
The station [image-nocss] has 12 dispensers, offering unbranded gasoline and diesel supplied by Star Fuels of Oklahoma LLC.
The location also offers Pops 66 and Route 66 merchandise, as well as some merchandise from some local "made-in-Oklahoma" vendors. It also features a 66-foot-tall pop bottle and windows lined floor to ceiling with thousands of sodas.
“As soon as we opened our doors, the soda became our signature”, said POPS general manager, Marty Doepke. “We are very excited to offer another way for our guests to find that perfect soda for themselves or for friends and family.We expect this kiosk to be a huge hit with our customers!”
