IRON LAW: Convenience Stores Are Taiwan's Retail Infrastructure

Taiwan has the world's second-highest convenience store density (~13,000
stores for 23M people = 1 per ~1,800 people). CVS is not just retail —
it's logistics (pickup), payment (bill pay), food service, and daily life
infrastructure. ANY retail strategy in Taiwan must account for CVS as
a channel, competitor, AND partner.
铁律：便利店是台湾零售的基础设施
台湾拥有全球第二高的便利店密度（约13000家门店，服务2300万人口=每约1800人就有1家）。CVS不仅是零售——它还是物流（取货）、支付（账单缴费）、餐饮服务和日常生活基础设施。任何针对台湾的零售策略都必须将CVS视为渠道、竞争对手以及合作伙伴。

Gotchas

注意事项

  • PX Mart negotiating power: With ~1,100 stores and dominant market share, PX Mart has enormous buyer power. Listing fees, promotional requirements, and margin expectations are aggressive.
  • CVS shelf space is tiny: A convenience store carries 2,000-3,000 SKUs in ~30 ping of space. Getting shelf space is extremely competitive. New products get 2-4 weeks to prove sales, then get cut.
  • Seasonality is concentrated: Department store anniversary sales (百貨週年慶, Sep-Nov), 雙11, Chinese New Year, and Mother's Day account for a disproportionate share of annual retail revenue. Plan inventory and marketing accordingly.
  • E-commerce logistics expectation: Taiwan consumers expect same-day or next-day delivery. Anything longer feels slow. Free shipping threshold battles continue (momo raised then lowered multiple times).
  • 全聯的议价能力：拥有约1100家门店及主导市场份额，全聯具备极强的买方议价能力。上架费、促销要求及利润预期都较为苛刻。
  • 便利店货架空间有限：一家便利店在约30坪的空间内仅能容纳2000-3000个SKU。获取货架空间竞争异常激烈。新产品仅有2-4周的时间证明销量，否则将被下架。
  • 季节性消费高度集中：百货周年庆（9-11月）、双11、春节及母亲节贡献了全年零售营收的绝大部分。需据此规划库存及营销活动。
  • 电商物流预期：台湾消费者期望当日或次日达。任何更长的配送时间都会被视为缓慢。免运费门槛的竞争仍在持续（momo多次上调后又下调门槛）。
