#Industry information ·2026-05-30 12:54:46

Local life services are digitalizing fast, with catering, retail and community services adopting online, intelligent operation tools, pushing competition into a new stage.

We observe three clear trends: instant delivery becomes the core experience, with 30-minute delivery becoming standard; private-domain operation grows in value, making membership and repurchase key; and online-offline omni-channel integration makes unified data and inventory ever more important.

For local merchants and operators, choosing a flexible, scalable digital platform is a key step to seize the trend and improve competitiveness.
