MUNICH--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Circus SE (WKN: A2YN35 \/ ISIN: DE000A2YN355 \/ XETRA: CA1)<\/b>, today announces the commencement of live operations of its robotic-based troop supply technology with the 3rd Army Corps of the Ukrainian Ground Forces in the Kyiv area \u2013 marking the first ever use of autonomous meal supply systems within an active conflict environment.<\/p>
\nAhead of deployment, Circus received regulatory certification from the State Service of Ukraine for Food Safety and Consumer Protection. This certification confirms compliance with all applicable health, quality, and safety standards required to import the company's technology into Ukraine, and clears the path for operational use at scale.<\/p>
\nSoldiers are supplied using Circus's full technology stack, comprising the hardware system, AI-controlled software, and proprietary ingredient infrastructure that underpins autonomous meal production in military environments.<\/p>
\nThe deployment marks Circus's entry into the Ukrainian market and the operational commencement of the partnership with the 3rd Army Corps of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, first announced in December 2025 under a framework agreement covering up to 25 autonomous robotic systems.<\/p>
\n\u201cThis technology is improving the entire food supply chain in the armed forces. It doesn\u2019t replace our catering forces; it complements them, closing the gaps where we couldn\u2019t reach soldiers with nutritious food quickly enough. For situations like ours, it\u2019s the best solution possible.\u201d \u2013 Major of the 3rd Army Corps Brigade of the Ukrainian Ground Forces commented on the launch.<\/p>
\nThe Ukraine launch follows the recent CA-1 robotic launch with the German Armed Forces and the successful award of a public procurement tender for autonomous meal supply with the Lithuanian Armed Forces on NATO's Eastern Flank.<\/p>
