1. Sea cucumber is different from other consumer goods and foods. The power of brand is not as great as you think, and it will bring great advantages to development. If you want to say that there is development, it depends on your comprehensive strength, such as operating ideas, purchase channels (product quality and price advantages), service quality and network resources. With these advantages, we are not afraid of no development. Sea cucumber is a high-consumption thing, and the so-called brand is just a little bit-the lack of price advantage greatly restricts your development.
2. The so-called joining is to maximize profits. Even if there is no joining fee, then the quantity (amount) of the first batch of goods has a certain threshold, that is to say, the wool is on the sheep!
Of course, this only represents my personal opinion. I suggest you do your own market research.
I hope my answer will help you to some extent. I'm happy to help as much as I can I wish you an early success!
