Frost & Sullivan releases the 'Global Commercial Service Robot Market research report (2023)'

Commercial service robots refer to intelligent robots that are developed according to industry needs, specifically designed for commercial service fields, to provide systematic services for merchants. Commercial service robots possess the ability to move independently and interact with people, capable of performing tasks such as distribution, guidance, and cleaning. They are widely used in fields such as catering, hotels, and public services. Depending on their functions, commercial service robots can typically be divided into commercial cleaning robots, terminal distribution robots, explanation and guidance robots, and other application robots.

The global commercial service robot industry began in the 1980s and has gone through three stages: the initial start-up phase, the rapid development phase, and the deepening application and industrial upgrading phase.

In the initial stages, countries around the world rushed to explore robot technology, gradually deepening their research and launching the first-generation commercial service robot products. However, the immaturity of technology was the main obstacle at this stage. Entering the rapid development phase, the rapid advancement of core technologies such as lidar, ultra-wideband (UWB) positioning, computer vision, and simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) systems has enabled commercial service robots to be widely used in public places such as restaurants, hotels, and shopping malls. The market scale has expanded rapidly. By 2020, breakthroughs in artificial intelligence and IoT technology injected unprecedented vitality into service robots, leading business service robots to expand into more fields and ushering the entire industry into a stage of rapid development.

The global commercial service robot industry mainly adopts three business models: direct sales of complete machines, agency sales, and leasing operations. Each model has its own characteristics and advantages to meet different customer needs. The direct sales model sells products directly to end-users, suitable for customers with high purchasing power. Through this method, manufacturers can ensure a high gross profit margin and manage customer relationships and brand images directly. The agency sales model relies on the sales network and market resources of agents to quickly expand market coverage, reduce sales costs and risks, and enhance product sales through active promotion by agents. The leasing operation model provides services for customers who are unwilling or unable to pay high purchase costs upfront, reducing initial investment costs and generating continuous income through leasing and maintenance services. At the same time, it enhances customer loyalty and satisfaction. These business models have jointly promoted the rapid development and widespread application of the commercial service robot market.
