The analysts forecast the Global Intelligent Vending Machines market to grow at a CAGR of 52.7 percent over the period 2013-2018. One of the key factors contributing to this market growth is the increasing labor cost in developed nations.

Commenting on the report, an analyst from the team said: The increase in spending on the R&D of intelligent vending machines is a major trend being witnessed in the Global Intelligent Vending Machine market. Some of the leading manufacturers of intelligent vending machines have increased their investment in the R&D of these machines. As these vendors have identified the huge potential of this market, they are investing more in R&D. In addition, the market vendors need to set proper technology standards, which can be done through an effective R&D process. Thus, the increased investment in the R&D of intelligent vending machines is likely to lead to the development of highly efficient products.

According to the report, there are many drivers contributing to the growth of the Global Intelligent Vending Machine market, the most important of which is the increase in government regulations. The governments in many countries across the globe have made labelling of nutritional values on products mandatory.
