A very surprising and new sales model has come up for Xiaomi’s Indian subsidiary.
The point is in the title, there’s not much to add to that. The vending machines look exactly like ours with chocolates, for example, only in this sweets are Xiaomi gadgets lined up. The fact is that it is not possible to serve customers faster than this, who have no choice but to take out their bank or credit card, enter the code of the right product, pay with the card and already have a briefcase.
Xiaomi calls the solution an Express kiosk, which pretty much covers the reality as it is also fast, shop too, just not sitting inside for sale. The service will be launched in several cities, currently looking for the location of vending machines, and people are expected to meet Xiaomi kiosks at tech parks, shopping malls, airports and subway stations.
