With the rapid development of science and technology, a variety of new black technologies and popular products are also coming one after another, like any Internet celebrity culture is also booming. What's more similar to words like unmanned sales, new retail and so on, makes people look dazzling. I don't know how everyone thinks about it. When I first heard about these words, I was really aggressive. I also learned the meaning of these things after learning about the industry.

Today, I will explain this new retail concept in depth for everyone. The concept of new retail was first put forward by our "horse papa" Jack Ma at the Ali Yunqi Conference. At the time, the concept was brought to the attention of everyone. After several years of development, the new concept retail has derived two similar retail methods: one is an unmanned vending machine and the other is an unmanned convenience store. These two retail methods, although similar, have their own advantages:

First of all, in terms of functions, the functions of unmanned convenience stores and unmanned vending machines are almost the same. They are the products of intelligent automation, but unmanned convenience stores are more complete, and unmanned vending machines are like a mini-scale. There are no convenience stores, and relatively large products cannot be sold on the products they sell. The number and types of products sold in unmanned convenience stores are far more than unmanned vending machines, which is unmatched by unmanned vending machines.

However, compared with unmanned convenience stores, the cost of unmanned vending machines is much lower than that of unmanned convenience stores. The cost of an unmanned convenience store is about 100,000 to 200,000, while the cost of unmanned vending machines is only 1- 20,000, or even less than 10,000. For the same cost, if you choose an unmanned vending machine, the unmanned vending machine can completely cover an entire community, and it has the coverage that an unmanned convenience store never had.

In terms of energy consumption, unmanned convenience stores are also much higher than unmanned vending machines. Although both unmanned vending machines and unmanned convenience stores are products with their own traffic, unmanned convenience stores still need proper promotion to bring in sufficient revenue.

In the future, the new retail industry will continue to develop the vending machine and unmanned convenience store roads. These two directions have their own advantages and disadvantages and are complementary. New retail entrepreneurs need to start from their own environment in order to go further and further down the road to new retail.
