Talk about the importance of the future trend of unmanned vending machines

The future trend of unmanned vending machines 　　 new retail has become an irreversible development trend in the future, unmanned mode is inevitable, and unmanned vending machines are the most important trend in the future. It is hailed as the most profitable tool in the next five years.　　 Why do you say that? Because unmanned vending machines not only have the advantages of big data and convenience of unmanned stores, but also explode unmanned stores in terms of profitability. 1. Low cost The fixed costs of traditional stores (mainly store rent, labor costs) 　　 (1) Store rent is well known, store rent is the core and heaviest piece of cost in offline stores, assuming store rent is 10 yuan/day/square meter, On average, a single store is 120 square meters, and the rent for a day is 1200 yuan, and the rent for a year is 430,000 yuan; 　　 (2) Generally, a convenience store of 120 square meters needs to be equipped with 6 clerks, cashier + tally clerk in two shifts . Assuming that the average annual salary of a clerk is 50,000 yuan, the annual salary of 6 employees is 300,000 yuan.　　Store rent + labor cost u003d 730,000 yuan/year, accounting for 73/170≈43% of annual sales, and cost accounting for nearly half of the entire sales.　　 At present, the continuous increase in store + labor costs is an irreversible trend, which will only get higher and higher. Therefore, reducing store rental costs and reducing labor costs are inevitable choices for upgrading and transforming traditional stores. Compared with traditional storefronts, unmanned vending machines have a small footprint and do not need to consider the issue of labor costs. They are also unmanned retail. Unlike Ma Yun's unmanned supermarket, it requires a dozen shop assistants to maintain order and tally. The difference is that the unmanned vending machine does not require a salesperson, and consumers purchase goods completely self-service, and the simple and convenient way of purchase and payment has fully met the needs of consumers.　　2, high anti-theft performance　　 the quality of consumers varies, and the credit system is still under construction. Thefts happen from time to time in unmanned stores, and they bother the operation of unmanned stores. Even the Internet has been able to collect a list of free guides to go to unmanned stores to eat and drink. The operation of unmanned stores requires high quality of consumers, and unmanned vending machines avoid this problem. Pay first and pick up the goods. , This method will not affect the consumer's buying experience, but also provides a guarantee for the merchant.　　3, faster layout and wider range　　The unmanned vending machine has a small footprint, flexible placement, and can quickly occupy business opportunities, which is a great advantage for companies that want to quickly occupy the entrance as a strategy. The unmanned store still needs to carefully consider the location. Appropriate store location and store size are all factors that have to be taken into consideration.　　4, does not need too much technical support　　The unmanned store uses RFID technology (radio frequency identification technology). RFID is a wireless communication technology that can identify specific targets and read and write related data through radio signals, without the need to establish mechanical or optical contact between the identification system and specific targets. However, according to the Wall Street Journal, when Amazon Go stores accommodate more than 20 consumers at the same time, it will affect the camera's recognition system. And the cost of RFID tags is not low. In fact, returning to the essence of technology, our original intention was to use big data to better understand consumers. Unmanned vending machines can also do this without additional costs and the technology is very mature.　　If the prospect is good, the project can be picked at will? 　　Although the prospect of unmanned vending stores is good, it is not that you can easily make a profit by simply buying two unmanned vending machines.　　1. The selling point of the vending machine is very important. 　　What can attract consumers? Or what is needed by consumers. Understanding this is very important for entrepreneurs. Fast-moving consumer goods are even more suitable items for vending machines, such as common snacks, drinks, and instant noodles.　　2. Choose the right point. 　　 Although the area of u200bu200bthe vending machine is small, it does not need to consider the location problem. The location is very important for the operation of vending machines. The currently recommended locations are schools (downstairs in the dormitory, teaching building lobby, library lobby, next to the playground, etc.), hospitals (waiting rooms, consulting service halls, etc.) Inpatient building entrance, etc.), subway, high-speed rail, bus station, waiting room, etc.　　The space is relatively closed and the competition is small. In addition, when choosing a spot, you also need to look at the quality of the flow of people. It is not necessarily good if there is a large number of people. For example, there is a lot of people flow at a certain sign. It is the place where everyone gets on and off, but everyone is busy. Very few people will stop to buy things while getting on and off the bus, and it is much better to put the vending machine in the waiting room! 　　 The new retail trend is irreversible, and the unmanned vending machine will usher in a bright spring under the influence of the new retail environment.　　 This article is organized by unmanned vending machines.
