For a moment I thought this was for the fish market only and it seemed that would be of limited appeal as many chefs like buying their fish in person so as to get the flesh of the right color, fat content, exact cut, etc. But this is trying to supplant the vast network of middletraders in as many industries as possible.
That definitely has great potential --as much as Amazon. On the other hand, Japan is about balance and this throws a whole sector of the economy into disarray. The jobs are menial but do provide people with a living --what will these people do now that they can't make a living pushing faxes and making deliveries?
I think about those nameless guys who stock those tchotchke dispensers in convenience stores. It's such a dreadful and unfulfilling job but it earns someone rent money.
