Contactless distribution refers to placing goods at a designated location.
for example, at the front desk and door of the company, the safety of users and riders in the food collection process is guaranteed by reducing face-to-face contact. Ensure that only one order is served at a time, which avoids the risk of cross-infection caused by spelling orders and adds a layer of guarantee for safe delivery.
contactless distribution is very important during the epidemic, and many platforms are doing contactless distribution at present. For example, the US Mission, Daily Fresh Food, Ten-Hui Group and so on. And now contactless distribution has become the standard of KFC and McDonald's.
Advantages and disadvantages of unmanned distribution
The advantage of unmanned distribution is that it is flexible and not limited by traffic terrain. At present, the main modes of unmanned distribution are drone distribution and unmanned vehicle distribution. Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) has strong flexibility in the distribution process, can be intelligently dispatched, is not limited by traffic terrain, can be delivered in a straight line, and can complete the distribution in a short time. Unmanned distribution can avoid contact between people. Drivers do not need to face major disasters, which can prevent disasters from further worsening or spreading.
the disadvantage of unmanned distribution is its low public acceptance. When there is no delivery, not only the driver but also the courier feels that the job will be robbed. Distribution personnel believe that the use of delivery robots to replace people by enterprises is essentially to save operating costs and labor costs, which will pose a threat to their survival. The supervision system is not perfect. In Europe, Germany adopts the licensing system to regulate unmanned vehicles. Vehicles need to apply to the government to get on the road. Britain needs the supervision of micro-mobile vehicles, which are regarded as motor vehicles by default.
