First, the income was unstable during the epidemic. The biggest impact of the outbreak of the epidemic on the catering industry is the unstable income, because when the epidemic occurs, measures need to be taken to control management, except that people will be locked at home and stores can't open, which is a great blow to the catering industry and will seriously affect its income, leading to a sharp drop in its income.
Second, the cost of the catering industry is relatively high. Although the catering industry seems to be more profitable, as we all know, the cost is also very high, because the store costs are relatively high, such as rent, decoration, equipment, chefs, waiters and so on. These are not small expenses. Although there is no income from store closing management during the epidemic, these necessary expenses are essential. In this case, the income and expenditure are not equal, which will lead to many small shops in the catering industry that are unsustainable and can only hang signs of transfer.
Third, it is required to ensure food safety. The spread of the epidemic makes us accustomed to wearing masks, but we can't wear masks when eating, which puts forward higher requirements for the catering industry, not only to ensure the disinfection in place, but also to ensure the absolute safety of the environment, so as to ensure the safety of customers. The safety of ingredients, the safety of cooking process, the safety of service personnel, the safety of customers and so on. It is a severe test for the operators of the catering industry, so under the impact of the epidemic, the income of the catering industry will drop year on year.
