1, determine the purchase channel.

The determination of commodity procurement channels is the first hurdle of quality assurance. The general procurement channels include e-commerce platform, wholesale market and factory direct sales, among which e-commerce platform is the most convenient and affordable, but it is more troublesome if it needs to be returned. Factory direct sales are the most reliable, but small shops generally can't directly contact manufacturers for supply. Therefore, in order to ensure the quality of supply, it is best to go to the wholesale market.

2, pay attention to identify the quality of goods.

With the escort of the first level, don't ignore the screening of commodity quality. The quality of goods in the wholesale market is also uneven. If you want to buy really good goods, you need to choose carefully and carefully, so that wholesalers can show relevant certificates or agency certificates to ensure the quality is no problem.

3. Don't neglect the packaging of goods.

Different package sizes mean different sales. Some customers like to buy large packaged goods and hoard them, while others like small packaged goods to ensure fresh shelf life. Therefore, we should consider this problem when purchasing goods, check the packaging standards with suppliers, and purchase large and small packages according to a certain proportion to meet the diversified needs of customers.

4. Find out if there is after-sales service.

Although the goods are purchased through formal channels, it is difficult to guarantee that many goods will not be flawed, or some goods will not be sold at all. If this happens, is it unlucky? Still looking for suppliers? What if the supplier doesn't admit it? If there is after-sales service, it will be easy to solve. First, negotiate whether you can return or recycle at a discount to minimize your losses.

5. Talk about the supply price.

Price negotiation is a point that every operator cannot ignore. Generally speaking, the quotations given by suppliers have room for discount. If the purchase quantity is not too small, you can discuss with the supplier to reduce the price appropriately, or directly wipe out zero, so that the purchase price is low and the selling price can be guaranteed, which has an advantage in competing with other stores.

Size of convenience stores:

Generally speaking, the business area of small supermarket chain convenience store franchise stores is about 50 square meters, and there are about 3000 kinds of goods. In Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Dongguan, Huizhou, Heyuan, Qingyuan, Foshan, Zhuhai, Yangjiang and other areas, it generally costs about/kloc-0.5 to 200,000 yuan to open a 50-70 square meter convenience store supermarket.

Mainly spent on the decoration of the store, the purchase of various equipment and goods; The rents of supermarkets, convenience stores and franchise stores vary from place to place. On average, it is about 100 yuan, 1 square meter.

Compared with ordinary supermarkets, the profits of supermarket convenience store franchisees are relatively higher. For example, the gross profit of Guangdong Shuigongguan supermarket chain can usually reach more than 35%, far exceeding the level of ordinary supermarkets. The general gross profit of franchise stores is about 20%-30%, which is mainly due to the operating principle of "small but refined" in convenience stores and small supermarkets, and the price is about 10% higher than that in general large supermarkets.
