Can Unmanned Retail Seize the Opportunity to 'Turn the Tables' After the Pandemic?

Unmanned retail faces challenges in finding suitable locations and meeting appropriate scenarios. Since the outbreak of the pandemic, besides mainstream channels like offline supermarkets and fresh food e-commerce, unmanned retail has become one of the purchasing channels for daily necessities. Recently, after the completion of Huoshenshan Hospital, an unmanned supermarket in the epidemic area was launched, built by Alibaba's Taoxianda and Hubei chain supermarket Zhongbai Warehouse, operating 24 hours a day and serving over 200 customers on its first day. Luckin's unmanned coffee machine 'Ruijigou' has also entered multiple hospitals in Wuhan. During the fight against the epidemic, unmanned supermarkets, unmanned delivery, and unmanned cabinets have become particularly important.
