Unmanned vending machines that you have never seen before in life

Regarding the development of unmanned vending machines, everyone must feel very real in life. It gradually penetrates into our daily life from scratch, because it is mobile payment, convenient, fast, low management cost and flexible venue. It has become an indispensable part of our daily life. From small consumer goods to paper towels and chewing gum, to luxury goods, watches and mobile phones, electronic technology can be sold in unmanned vending machines.

The development of vending machines

Vending machines were introduced to China in the 1990s. In 1993, the first batch of self-service vending machines appeared in Guangdong and Shanghai, but due to the high cost of machinery and equipment, coupled with people's thinking and business environment, China's Self-service vending machines are developing slowly. With the take-off of the Chinese economy, since the end of the last century, after nearly a decade of development, the domestic self-service vending machine industry has achieved a good development trend. However, according to incomplete statistics, the distribution of unmanned vending machines is generally dominated by first- and second-tier developed cities, and the radiation range has not completely affected the third- and fourth-tier cities. Therefore, unmanned goods that are regarded as emerging industries in China have long been eccentric in foreign countries, and on this basis, they continue to innovate and better serve the public.

One: air vending machine

Place of delivery: station

Yes, you are not mistaken. There is a vending machine at a station in the UK that sells air and contains 100 "empty" bottles. How to use: Pay for the purchase, remove the bottle, open the bottle cap, and squeeze the bottle to breathe the summer taste. The tastes are: fresh grassy, BBQ, sunscreen and sea. Does it sound incredible, but it is said that the sales of this equipment is still quite high, and according to the survey and analysis, I like most of the grass.

Two: stealth vending machine

Place of delivery: street

To celebrate Valentine's Day, the Coca-Cola Company introduced a high-end stealth vending machine and installed it on the roadside, and it will only appear when a couple passes. The unusual thing about this vending machine is that only when the couple passes by, the seemingly empty roadside will suddenly light up and a romantic giant advertisement will appear. Then, the cute vending machine for the lover will show its original shape. The vending machine also asks the names of each couple and prints their names on the bottle to create a truly unique couple drink.

(Maybe our single dog is not worthy of drinking a fat house.)
Three: reverse vending machine

Place of delivery: street

Recently, the Delhi government of India invented a magic vending machine called Reverse Vending Machine, which looks almost the same as the beverage vending machine we often see in our lives, but it’s Unique. The drink vending machine eats money and spits out the drink; but the vending machine neither eats money nor spits out drinks. And this vending machine is purely for the concept of green environmental protection, people only need to bring the usual discarded plastic bottles, and then put them into the mouth of the vending machine, and then let the vending machine eat the plastic bottle, followed by Enter your phone number on the vending machine, the vending machine will spit out the phone case, or a coupon for the purchase of food and beverages.

This kind of brain opening or reverse thinking mode has gradually brought new ideas to domestic self-sales companies. New retail not only stays in one-time trading behavior, but also predicts and creates customer needs, and meets consumers' long-term satisfaction. Less, maybe in the future, unmanned vending machines are not just a sales terminal, social, environmental, communication, learning and other services can be realized on unmanned vending machines.

Just like the person from JW group, “The future self-service sales will be more than just retail. We are constantly thinking about how to make it more interesting and meaningful!”
