After the epidemic, the market for intelligent unmanned vending machines has great development prospects
In 2017, the unmanned shelf experienced a rapid development of fruit, but it ushered in a cold winter. After the development of unmanned shelves in unmanned supermarkets was hindered, unmanned vending machines blew a new wave this year. According to this trend, can unmanned vending machines lead the new retail trend? This can be obtained from recent unmanned vending machine data! 2018 is the first year of the development of unmanned vending machines. On the one hand, it is the large-scale popularization of mobile payment technologies such as PayPay, V Credit Payment, and Dinpay. On the other hand is the development and growth of artificial intelligence technology. Technology allows the two links of payment and delivery to be infinitely close to consumers. It can be said that digital currency promotes the rapid development of unmanned vending machines. In fact, the gap of unmanned vending machines is bigger than you think, and the cost of unmanned vending machines is much higher than that of physical stores. First, the industry's average gross profit margin of unmanned vending machines is 30%-40%, which is much higher than the profits of physical supermarkets. Second, unmanned vending machines cover almost all offline scenarios. Giants can open technology and traffic to offline to seize the market. Third, there is a large market gap. Japan has 50,000 convenience stores with 120 million people and 150,000 convenience stores in the United States with 320 million people. However, my country conservatively estimates that there is a gap of 280,000 convenience stores and a gap of unmanned vending machines. It's even bigger. In fact, from the perspective of the relationship between unmanned vending machines and traditional convenience stores, it is actually more complementary than competitive. As a supplement to the business ecology of traditional convenience stores, unmanned vending machines will become an integral part of new retail formats. The task of unmanned vending machines is not only to solve the problems of the retail market, but also to promote the digitalization of cities and build smart cities.
