세계의 소매 로봇 시장 예측(-2030년) : 제품, 기술, 용도, 최종 사용자, 지역별 분석

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Retail Robotics Market is accounted for $18.8 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $111.4 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 34.5% during the forecast period. Retail robotics is the use of robotic technology in retail to enhance efficiency, customer experience, and operational optimization. It involves tasks like inventory management, shelf scanning, product recommendations, and customer service. Robots with sensors and AI can autonomously navigate stores, detect stock levels, identify misplaced items, and assist with restocking. They can also provide personalized shopping experiences and assist with cleaning and maintenance tasks. As technology advances, retail robotics is expected to shape the future of retail, streamlining processes, and improving customer experiences.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Increasing minimum wages and a shrinking labour pool

Rising minimum salaries and workforce shortages are driving up labor expenses for retailers. By automating monotonous jobs like cleaning, inventory checks, and restocking, robots can help defray these expenses. Robotics is becoming a desirable substitute to keep things running as the labor pool gets smaller and may fill the gap and aid stores in continuing to operate even with a less workforce by automating functions like inventory management, shelf stocking, and customer service.

Restraint:

Integration challenges & concerns over job displacement

Retail settings often use outdated technology that may not work with modern robotics, making integration challenging and time-consuming. Businesses may be discouraged from using robots due to potential ROI concerns and costly infrastructure changes. The integration process may also cause temporary interruptions in existing activities, employee training, and modifications to procedures. Retailers may be deterred from implementing robotics if operational efficiency and productivity decline during this transitional phase.

Opportunity:

Limited infrastructure & need for enhanced efficiency and productivity

Retailers are increasingly seeking low-cost robotics solutions to optimize productivity without significant infrastructure upgrades. Robotics vendors are developing affordable, flexible systems that optimize productivity without significant upgrades. Thus as retailers adopt resource-efficient robots, such as those requiring less power or relying on edge computing, they overcome infrastructure barriers and provide the necessary efficiency gains, encouraging further market growth.

Threat:

Rising concerns about privacy and security

Retail robotics systems often collect vast amounts of data, including consumer behavior, purchase history, and even biometric data in some cases (e.g., facial recognition). This raises fears among consumers about how their data is being used and whether it could be exposed in a data breach. A lack of consumer confidence in the privacy of their personal information can lead to reluctance in adopting robotic systems like self-checkout kiosks or AI-powered customer service bots. This hesitation can slow the widespread adoption of robotics in retail.

Covid-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the adoption of retail robotics as businesses sought to reduce human interaction and ensure safer, more efficient operations. Robots were increasingly used for tasks like inventory management, cleaning, and contactless customer service. While the pandemic initially disrupted supply chains, it ultimately highlighted the importance of robotics in enhancing resilience and driving innovation in the retail sector.

The mobile robots segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The mobile robots segment is predicted to secure the largest market share throughout the forecast period because mobile robots automate repetitive tasks in retail, such as inventory management and product movement, freeing human workers to focus on value-added activities. They also help mitigate labour shortages by filling gaps in routine tasks, reducing dependency on human labour for cleaning, shelf scanning, and product transportation. This results in cost savings, especially for large retailers managing extensive labour forces.

The robotics process automation segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The robotics process automation segment is expected to register lucrative growth during the estimation period owing to automated back-office tasks like data entry, order processing, inventory management, and financial reconciliation. This reduces manual data handling, errors, and increases efficiency. RPA can generate purchase orders when inventory levels drop, allowing robots to focus on physical tasks. It also handles repetitive tasks like invoice processing, purchase orders, and payment verifications, allowing retailers to focus on customer-facing activities.

Region with largest share:

During the estimation period, the North America region is expected to capture the largest market share owing to AI, machine learning, and computer vision technologies that are transforming robots into more efficient and smarter tools for tasks like inventory management and customer assistance. North American governments are recognizing the potential of robotics and automation to boost productivity and economic growth. In the US, government support for companies investing in automation and robotics technologies is crucial for driving retail robotics adoption in the region.

Region with highest CAGR:

Over the forecasted timeframe, the Asia Pacific region is anticipated to exhibit the highest CAGR due to countries like Japan and South Korea are renowned for their advanced robotics technology, which is increasingly used in retail. In China and India, drones are being explored for last-mile delivery, particularly for small, lightweight packages. These drones offer a faster, more cost-effective solution, especially in urban areas where traffic congestion can delay traditional vehicles.
