New Delhi (India), April 15<\/strong>: D2C snacks bar \u2018Snickers\u2019 parent company has launched its new chocolate variant \u2018Kesar Pista Snickers\u2019 & \u2018Galaxy\u2019 through \u2018Daalchini vending machines\u2019 and has received tremendous response recording over one-fourth sales, which is higher than any other retail model through these technology-enabled kiosks. This huge consumer response highlights the changing consumer behavior towards retail platforms and how vending machines are becoming a go-to option for the D2C brands for launching a new product.<\/p>\n

Launching a new product becomes more effective with Daalchini smart vending machine and their cloud-connected consumer-trend engine. It gives the brand managers early trends of the product. Brands can target their customers with right offers and gather extremely important feedback digitally with Daalchini\u2019s RaaS {Retail-as-a-service} platform and A\/B testing tool.<\/p>\n

Since the pandemic, vending machines have been experiencing exponential growth and demand across the country. Driven by the IoT-enabled technology, digitally connected vending machines and smart stores in the F&B industry are becoming the new-age retail distributor for D2C brands, accelerating growth of the industry.<\/p>\n

The F&B industry has seen a shift in the process of new launches, from entering exclusive deals to partnering with Vending machine operators. Earlier, Daalchini conducted an in-house survey with over 250 D2C brands and it was revealed that 58% of brands found it difficult or less likely to sell LUPs via their own websites. 53% found it difficult or unsustainable to sell via e-commerce and hence they sold bundled packs. This made it difficult for the brands to test and launch new products in the market. However, with Daalchini\u2019s smart kiosks and consumer behavior tracking Vending Machines, it has become easier for brands to track consumer preferences after launching new products in the market, by providing them with the RaaS {Retail-as-a-service} platform.<\/p>\n

Ms. Prerna Kalra, Co-Founder, Daalchini Technologies<\/strong> said, \u201cSnickers experiencing highest sales from Daalchini\u2019s Vending Machines highlights the changes in consumer preferences. And, the sales from them highlight the fact that Vending Machines are becoming a new-age retail channel, especially after the pandemic. We are aiming to do 7-12 similar large tie-ups with FMCG brands and Cloud kitchen on a national level. We aim to be their significant distribution partner with our online discovery and instant fulfilment mechanism.\u201d<\/p>\n

Daalchini has witnessed tremendous demand since the pandemic. It has collaborated with D2C brands such as Open Secret, Slurrp Farm, Yoga bar, BRB, The Whole Truth Foods, Cremica Opera, Cravova, Millet Bowl, etc. It has installed its vending machines in corporates such as Reliance, Vodafone, Times Internet, E&Y, Snapdeal, OLX, OYO, Genpact, Cushman & Wakefield, MX Player, Samsung, Vivo, Paytm, Optum, Thales, Smartworks, Housr, Whirlpool, L\u2019Or\u00e9al, Redtape, etc.<\/p>\n

Commenting on the development, Snickers spokesperson said<\/strong>, \u201cWe have launched 2 new variants in January 2022 – Snickers Kesar Pista and Galaxy chocolate at Daalchini Vending Machines and have received an overwhelming response. We got 35% of sales through the vending machines of these variants.\u00a0 We can target the right audience through smart vending machines and the sales & customer insights we get from the Daalchini app and partner interface are very helpful to understand consumer behavior and sales patterns. We look forward to a long-term partnership with Daalchini.\u201d<\/p>\n

Enjoying the taste of the chocolate, Dikhsa, who works at Altrade said<\/strong>, \u201cSnickers Kesar Pista is good chocolate full of caramel and Pista flavor\u201d; while Manish of Headsupfortails <\/strong>mentions, \u201cI like it because this product is low in sugar.\u201d At Samsung\u2019s office Gurgaon, A. Bose said, \u201cAs a taste and quality-wise it\u2019s a nice product\u201d and Simran who works at Healthians and is very cautious about fitness mentioned, \u201cAs per fitness this is a good product and I like the taste too.\u201d<\/p>\n
