Global Smart Retail Devices Market Dynamics
Drivers: Increasing use of robotics and automation in the retail industry
Therefore, customers expect instant services and opt for automated devices and robotics to reduce their manual operating tasks. The seamless performance of the self-service machines enhances overall customer satisfaction. An increase in demand for automated systems such as a kiosk, vending machines, electronic shelf labels is expected to drive the growth of the smart retail devices market, as these automated systems reduce the operational time and physical effort evolved in each service area. Also, customers prefer self-service technology compared to manual dealings for security purposes, secured transactions of ATMs, Kiosks, and vending machines. Therefore, demand for these types of automated devices is expected to increase and eventually drive the growth of the overall market. The technological revolution of automation across the retail sector has proven effectively beneficial for the retailer. Also, trending retail automation is fueling the adoption of electronic shelf labels across all retail stores, including supermarkets, hypermarkets, specialty stores, and non-food retail stores. Moreover, establishing this system in the retail store offers a dynamic pricing solution, which helps reduce labor input by removing manual operations.
Restraints: Increased maintenance cost of high-end devices
The return on investment is high for smart retail devices as the duration required to gain profits is relatively high. Thus, retailers with limitations on migration budgets are lagging in adopting complete smart solutions, which is expected to hamper the market growth. Also, the deployment of electronic shelf label (ESL) technology cost might seem high for the unorganized retailers. Growth in smart retail store stores generates more shelves, where retail retailers need to allocate an ESL tag for each shelf. This, in turn, increases the installation expenses on each electronic shelf.

Moreover, advanced automation approaches give rise to technological complexity that involves high-risk implementation, significant investments, transformation projects, and prolonged payback periods, which are major factors expected to restrain the global growth of the smart retail devices market.
Opportunities: Increasing number of smart stores
The advent of smart technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and the Internet of Things (IoT), is changing the landscape of the retail industry. These technologies are enabling immersive and frictionless experiences and rapid access to personalized preferences. Smart stores are using automation to enhance the customer’s experience by providing features such as self-identification, product information, product selection, in-store navigation, and self-checkout. For instance, Dutch food retailer Ahold Delhaize is rolling out electronic shelf labels in its stores that show product information and allow automatic price changes such as price reductions for products approaching the expiration date.
In addition, UK-based startup Wasteless is using automation to dynamically change the prices of food based on expiration dates, helping supermarkets combat food waste. Economically developed regions have already initiated the concept of smart stores. Developing regions such as the Asia Pacific and South America are also transitioning toward automation and smart technologies, which creates lucrative market opportunities for smart retail devices.
