NEW BEDFORD -- There's a pair of Ferrari red behemoths inside Paul Pattaini's office that could do for the vending machine industry what the Internet did for computers.
With the touch of a couple buttons, a unit's internal stove can produce a 9-inch pizza in 90 seconds.
And because it's a vending machine, it can go anywhere a person goes to buy a Coke.
"It puts the world's most popular food -- pizza -- in places heretofore unavailable," Mr. Pattaini said. "It was the kind of idea that had us saying, 'Duh. That's a great product.'"
Mr. Pattaini and his partners, Mark Schmidt and Kevin Murphy, have exclusive rights to sell the Italian import in the United States and options to sell in Canada and Mexico. The company Wonder Pizza Italy, the makers of the vending machine, already has units throughout much of Europe.
The local threesome has founded New Bedford-based Wonder Pizza USA as a vehicle to sell the machines and Wonder Pizza America to make the ready-made pizzas stocked inside the machine.
