Will the new retail trend in China be unmanned retail? What are the development prospects?

According to the data of China Department Store Business Association Self-service Sales Industry Branch, before 20021,more than 65% retailers in China were willing to carry out terminal innovation. Some experts predict that the trend of unmanned or semi-unmanned convenience stores will gradually take shape in the future.

But the fact is that the beauty of the data does not mean that the development is also orderly. After nearly two years of crazy expansion, the status quo of unmanned retail industry has begun to usher in new changes, and the calm market has begun to face crises such as fund supply failure and bankruptcy.

From blind expansion to pressing, the story of unmanned shelves continues. After the large-scale reshuffle and reorganization of the industry, more and more enterprises choose safe areas to explore in small steps, and the calm behavior after the industry capital boom is pushing a new start step by step. New unmanned retail products, such as unmanned shelves and convenience stores, are all attempts made by retail enterprises to reduce costs, which may be a real industry war after the stable period.

The new retail makes the quiet market lively, whether it is the industry leader with abundant capital and rich industries or the unknown novice from scratch. But the calm behind the temporary prosperity can't help but make people sigh-do you really need unmanned retail? After labor is replaced, can the service better meet the expectations of consumers? Or is it a temporary stunt?

But in any case, the online and offline changes of traditional retail industry are the general trend, and the new consumption experience brought by the application of technology is an indisputable fact. In the future, if we can really standardize and rationally lay out unmanned retail and provide consumers with the truth.

Real convenience is a kind of social progress.
