Do you think "unlimited investment" community group buying will eliminate the vegetable market?

In recent years, the concept of community group buying seems to be very popular, including Meituan and Ali, which also involve related businesses. Just recently, on the way home from overtime, a promoter pulled your next app to complete a 9: 00 indicator, which was also very hard. So what is community group buying doing? What business phenomena can be found from it? What's the difference between it and the vegetable market downstairs? These problems will be more or less concerned by everyone. This time I will try to talk about them from the following points:

1. What is community group buying doing? Simply put, it is similar to launching a group purchase on the app. For example, I want to eat Chinese cabbage for lunch tomorrow, and I initiate a demand on the app. People with the same needs will also browse and place orders. When the platform makes statistics, look at how many Chinese cabbages are purchased, and then buy them. People who need food the next day will take it home conveniently through the distribution center of the platform. It sounds very much like ordering something online and getting it the next day. It is still very convenient.

Second, what are the advantages over vegetable markets or vendors? In fact, to sum up, the advantage of community group buying is that there is no inventory before selling, which greatly reduces the cost. Because whether it is a vegetable market or a mobile vendor, if they want to sell something to you, they need advanced goods. If they buy less, they can't sell it. If they buy more, it will be a serious waste. What shall we do? Raise the selling price, and distribute the money that may cause loss of profits or waste of inventory to the buyers, so that no one agrees to raise the selling price. Therefore, the biggest advantage of community group buying is to eliminate potential inventory, improve efficiency, further reduce costs, and then reduce the selling price.

Third, what do we think of it better? Then we might be worried. Since the advantages of community group buying are so obvious, what should vendors do now? No, they may resist, but we should know that the efficiency improvement brought by this technology and the consequences of changing consumption patterns are inevitable at all times and in all countries. We should actively embrace change and consider how to adapt to this rapidly changing era from our own perspective.
