Vending in China

Vending represents a very insignificant portion of total retailing in China, of rather less than 1% in 2012. Vending has been facing fierce competition from other retailing formats, in particular convenience stores. Convenience stores provide a convenient place for impulse purchases, such as soft drinks, hot drinks and snack food. In addition, many convenience stores offer 24-hour business operation, hence consumers can make purchases at any time.
