The development history of the vending machine industry

The development history of the vending machine industry Hello everyone, I am the author, today I will talk to you about the development history of the vending machine industry, let’s take a look at it together. The development of the vending machine industry is determined by many factors. Due to different national conditions, domestic and foreign countries have different reasons for their development. Because vending machines are imported products, let’s talk about foreign countries first. Modern vending machines originated in Europe, developed in Japan, and entered China around 2000. Automatic vending machine is also called unmanned vending machine. It is a kind of mechanical equipment that can sell goods without self-service in order to solve the contradictions of expensive land rent, high labor cost, and inability to open stores in some places. Everyone knows that Japan has a small land with a large population, a large population density and a crowded space. Coupled with high staff and labor costs, the cost of opening a physical store is very high. Therefore, this kind of machine is widely used in Japan. The relevant data shows that Japan has a population of 127 million. There are more than 5 million vending machines of all kinds. The above factors are demand-driven. In fact, the popularity of vending machines is inseparable from the highly developed machinery and electronics in the process of human industrialization. Technically speaking, the equipment produced to meet the needs is also a key point. In China, the development of the vending machine industry is much later. Although it has been in the domestic market for nearly 20 years, it has only been popularized in the past six or seven years. With the development of e-commerce, mobile mobile payment has been very popular, which provides a very convenient payment environment for the development of the vending machine industry. For example, since 2013, Easy Touch Technology and Alipay launched a vending machine that supports Alipay payment. In just six years, this payment method has become the standard configuration of vending machines. If any machine cannot support mobile Alipay payment, it will be embarrassed to say that it is a vending machine. From the initial Alipay sonic payment to the later scan code payment to the current facial recognition payment (face-swiping payment), mobile payment has developed three generations of technology, which has never been seen in the history of the development of vending machines. At present, all the better spots in domestic first-tier cities are basically occupied by various operators or individual merchants. At present, vending machines are expanding from first- and second-tier cities to third-tier, fourth-tier, fifth-tier and sixth-tier cities, until one day they occupy the main street. Alley.
