Everyone should believe that a penny is worth a penny, and the canteen can eat and drink at will, but the price is still so low, and the quality of his ingredients is definitely not so good.

For example, it is very expensive for us to go to the market or seafood shop to eat seafood, but some buffets can be eaten at will. Actually, these seafood are not fresh seafood, but frozen seafood. This kind of frozen seafood is very cheap. The normal price is only about 1/3 or even lower than fresh seafood, because these frozen seafood are generally leftovers that fresh seafood or chilled seafood can't be sold.

For example, some chicken, chicken wings, drumsticks, beef and so on. Many of them are actually imported, mostly frozen. These meats are very cheap abroad, and the imported prices are much cheaper than ordinary fresh meat. For example, frozen chicken wings and drumsticks in some places can be bought in 6 yuan for a kilo if the purchase quantity is relatively large.

And drinks. The drinks in the canteen are generally drinkable, but these drinks are basically blended and the cost is very low. The cost of a drink is estimated to be only a few cents.

2. The rental cost is relatively low.

In the catering industry, the rental cost is a big cost. For example, in some prosperous areas, the rental cost may account for more than 30% of the overall operating cost.

However, these cafeterias generally don't choose shops on the 1 floor, and they are basically above the second floor. The rent above the second floor is obviously much cheaper than that on the 1 floor, which can save the cost of the cafeteria.

3. The personnel cost is relatively low.

Cafeterias are basically streamlined, and there is no need for re-inspection procedures or too many waiters. More people are concentrated in the kitchen, and the chef is the highest paid in the kitchen. If you are an ordinary waiter, the salary is actually relatively low.

So overall, the operating cost of canteens is relatively low, which is also an important reason for their low pricing.

Let's see why customers can eat whatever they want, but restaurants won't lose money.

Many people are full of confidence before going to the canteen, but they are discouraged when they actually go to eat. Most people will probably be full after eating for a while.
