Why are there so many outdoor vending machines in Japan?

Why are there so many outdoor vending machines in Japan? I don’t know that Japan’s vending machines are mostly indoors and there are many outdoor machines. It is estimated that there is only one in Japan in the world. The reason is simple: good law and order, supervision, strict punishment, and quick improvement. 1. Good law and order: Japan has very strict control over knives and guns. In Hong Kong movies, there are often sections where Japanese triads go to Hong Kong to buy guns. If there is a shooting incident, it is estimated that the media will report it for a period of time, which is very rare. 2. Supervision: The management of vending machines includes not only the operating company itself, but also industry associations, non-governmental organizations, and government departments to promote their healthy development. There is a term called 'broken window effect' that is easier to understand. If there is no problem with the equipment, there will be no damage and subsequent continuous damage. 3. Strict punishment: It is reported that the cost of handling cases in Japan is very high, which is estimated to be related to high labor costs and strict evidence collection. As for how rigorous, you can look at the Japanese TV series 'Kesouyan' series and 'Metropolitan Police Department' series, which can enhance your understanding of Japanese case handling methods; in addition, in terms of punishment, the severity is related to the number of times, not just the amount. For example, if you are fishing in a vending machine, the first time is the first offender, and the second time you are caught, it will be troublesome. Repeated offenders! The punishment for repeated offenders is said to be very heavy. We have a headache for the vending machine phishing, and we can't file a case. 4. Fast improvement: This aspect is the result of the joint efforts of the entire vending machine industry. The improvement includes the development of suitable outdoor models, anti-overturning, anti-typhoon, anti-theft, and anti-counterfeiting designs. Twenty years ago, a large-scale equipment destruction event occurred in Japan. Manufacturers quickly strengthened the improvement of vulnerable parts, including door lock protection and improvements in the design of the connection between the door and the chassis. Strictly speaking, the popularity of vending machines selling drinks and food in Japan began in the 1960s, although there were also vending machines before, or the quality problem could not be scaled up, or the vending machines used to sell tickets. Vending machine operators are still focusing on indoor location development, and most of them are factories, schools, taxi companies, newspaper offices and other places. During this period, it was not that outdoor venues had not been developed. For example, some operators put vending machines on the beaches to sell ice cream, but the equipment was not working, and the ice cream melted into water. There were complaints and the operation had to be stopped. From this point of view, stable equipment is a prerequisite. Even if it is replaced with the current principle, it is practical. Don't look at how dazzling the appearance and function are. Whether it can withstand the test is the last word. The market does not need PPT vending machines. With stable equipment, the foundation for the development of outdoor vending machines has been established. With the joint efforts of operators, beverage manufacturers, and agents, outdoor vending machines have flourished.
