TRANSFORMATION OF PURCHASING HABITS IN RESIDENTIAL CONDOMINIUMS: THE ROLE OF AUTONOMOUS MINI MARKETS IN EVERYDAY CONSUMPTION
Abstract
The digital transformation of retail has reshaped consumer behavior and enabled the emergence of self-service business models, among which autonomous mini markets in condominium environments stand out. Considering that convenience, time-saving, and 24-hour availability are the main drivers of modern consumption, this research aims to analyze the impact of autonomous retail on purchasing behavior in residential condominiums, identify critical adoption factors, evaluate operational challenges, and propose management strategies based on administrative tools. The guiding research question was: How do autonomous mini markets influence consumption habits in condominiums and what are the determinants of their sustainability and adoption? The methodology wzas structured in two stages: bibliographic review with exploratory and descriptive approach, and case study supported by market reports (Nielsen, Deloitte, Sebrae), as well as strategic tools such as SWOT, Porter’s Five Forces, and PDCA. Results indicate that 83% of purchases are motivated by convenience, 67% by urgency, and 54% by avoiding displacement. The research concludes that the model is viable and driven by time-saving benefits, but depends on logistics precision, data-driven stock management, and alignment with residents’ purchasing profiles.
