Commercial ice machines and Home ice machines
Although autumn has arrived, many areas are still hot. With the high temperatures since this summer, the “ice economy” has also shown an increasingly “hot” trend. Among them, edible ice cups and household ice makers have become a “new blue ocean” of consumption.
According to Pinduoduo data, since March this year, the overall sales of ice makers on the platform have increased by 40% year-on-year, and the monthly sales in July alone are expected to reach tens of millions of yuan; the monthly sales of household ice makers in some stores can even exceed 10,000 units.
In addition, new species such as smart refrigerators with ice bar functions, under-counter air conditioners for kitchens, and high-speed air circulation fans have also been bought into the “blue ocean market” by more and more consumers.
The current cold drink business has deviated from the simple “thirst quenching” and “heat relieving” attributes. At the same time, with the diversification of the trend of home DIY beverages, the market demand for ice-making products has been stimulated.
The acquisition scenarios of edible ice cubes are also expanding. In addition to purchasing traditional ice cube molds, you can also use household ice bags and ice makers; in addition, ready-made ice cups sold in convenience stores are also one of the options.
However, compared to going out to buy ready-made ice cups, ice machines that can produce ice at any time are obviously more convenient and can meet specific needs. Home ice machines not only greatly shorten the time of making ice cubes, but also control the water quality and sanitary conditions of ice cubes made by yourself, which is safer and more hygienic.
On e-commerce platforms, most home ice machines are priced between 200 yuan and 600 yuan; these ice machines are usually small in size and can be placed on desks. They mainly produce ice quickly in 6-8 minutes, and the amount of ice produced at one time can be used by 1-2 people.
Commercial ice machines are developing rapidly, and various brands are competing with each other, constantly developing new products, and launching ice machines of various shapes to better meet customer requirements.
