Aren't bodega's essentially convenience stores owned by Spanish speaking people?

This business idea ups the ante on consumer convenience so it's targeting the market niche that is most specific to bodegas.

In anycase...the proof is in the pudding because the same conversation is happnening here in Toronto in the absence of the term 'bodega' and the same conflict between advanced vending machine entrepreneurs and convenience stores is happening. In short...bodega owners are not going to like this regardless of what it's called.
