Among them, vending machines are due to their mode, portability and The safety has reached a better balance, which has attracted the attention and attention of the industry, and the development has been steadily improved. A few days ago, Bai Zhenjie, Director of WeChat Pay Industry Operations, released the 'Report on the Unmanned Retail Industry in the Era of Mobile Payments' at the 2018 Smart Unmanned Retail Conference. Jointly released by the chapters. The report shows that unmanned retail users cover almost all age groups, the coverage rate of first-tier cities is leading, and emerging scenes are getting closer and closer to consumers. The post-90s are the core consumer group of unmanned containers, and the post-95s have led the consumption trend of vending machines. For all age groups, the number of consumers of vending machines is second only to that of human convenience stores, and the acceptance is higher. With the increase in the consumption capacity of the post-90s generation, the demand for vending machines in the market is strong and the stock is extremely low. Compared with Japan, Japan’s unmanned vending machines are recognized as the most comprehensive country in the world. In 2016, there were 4.94 million self-service vending machines in Japan, about one for every 26 people, and sales of about 293 billion yuan equivalent to RMB. 90% of the vending machines are self-operated by brands, such as Coca-Cola, Suntory, and Kirin. In China, the number of vending machines is only about 230,000, which are mainly operated by third-party operators such as Youbao and Shanghai Miyuan, while the number of self-operated vending machines is relatively small. Competition in my country's FMCG food and beverage industry has intensified, and FMCG brands and related new products have emerged one after another. In the future, brand owners may seek transformation and directly participate in the competition in the offline retail market. Brand owners' self-operated vending machines are expected to help brand owners realize advertising, consumer data collection and channel management, grasp all aspects of commodity circulation, and increase market share. Brands such as Nongfu Spring and Wahaha have begun to deploy offline through vending machines. Under the background of new retail, more and more brands will focus on the competition in offline retail scenes, and the vending machine market is ushering in an explosive period. If China's vending machine market is twice that of Japan, China can accommodate more than 10 million vending machines. It is conservatively assumed that the average price of each vending machine is 20,000 yuan, which corresponds to a market space of 200 billion yuan.
