Yes, it's a baguette vending machine. And the first I've ever come upon. However, a little Googling tells me that companies have been making machines like this for about ten years, and that maBaguette was probably among the first manufacturers of these machines for bakers to extend the sale of their products to. The emphasis seems to be on sales to out-of-the-way places where there's no baker, although this one in Pierreclos (population 904 in 2017) was inoperative at the time of our visit, the plug having clearly been pulled from its socket.
