Delivery Robots Market | Top Competitors | Starship Technologies (US), JD.com (China)

The delivery robots market is expected to grow from USD 11.9 million in 2018 to USD 34.0 million by 2024, at a CAGR of 19.15% during the forecast period. At present, the cost for each last-mile delivery is USD 1.60 via human drivers, which could be scaled down to USD 0.06 by utilizing autonomous delivery robots; hence, the reduction in the cost of last-mile deliveries is the key factor driving the growth of the delivery robots market. The increased venture funding is another factor driving the market growth.

Starship Technologies develops self-driving robotic vehicles to hand over local parcels or groceries directly from stores or hubs to customers. The company opened its first office in Tallinn, Estonia, in December 2014. Other than Estonia, the company has its presence in the UK, Germany, and Switzerland. The robots developed by the company have covered more than 100,000 miles in more than 100 cities of 20 countries in the world, encountering 15 million people along the way. Owing to its high-quality product “Starship Delivery Robot,” the company has managed to gather significant funding from various venture companies. For instance, in June 2018, the company raised the seed capital of USD 25 million, which is likely to be invested in deploying more number of robots in neighborhoods, as well as corporate and university campuses in the US and Europe. The company plans to dominate the delivery robots market by adopting partnership as a key strategy. For instance, the company partnered with Compass Group (UK) on Intuit Inc.’s (US) Mountain View campus to provide a robotic delivery.

JD.com is one of the two big B2C online retailers in China and is a member of the Fortune Global 500. The company reported an increase in the revenue by 40.3% in FY 2017 over FY 2016 (revenue for FY 2017 is USD 55.68 billion, for FY 2016, it is USD 39.69 billion). However, the company incurred a net loss of USD 23.40 million in FY 2017 compared to a net loss of USD 585.09 million in FY 2016. The company has a streamlined supply chain incorporated with technologies such as machine learning, natural language processing, and related computational approaches. JD.com has around 84,790 employees in its delivery function. The introduction of self-driving robots to carry out deliveries can significantly remove the labor expense, thereby enhancing the revenue and limiting the loss. The company plans to capture a larger market share by collaborating with technology providing companies. For instance, in June 2018, the company collaborated with Google (US) for initiating various strategic programs, including joint development of retail solutions in several regions around the world, including Southeast Asia, the US, and Europe.
