introduction to seafood business \x1d\\x1d\ Every day, many people come to our shop for advice on how to enter the dry seafood business-making seafood distribution or opening seafood restaurants and food stalls. \x1d\ This is not only because the seafood business has a good profit, but whether the seafood is hot or not also represents the level of catering in a region. With the improvement of keeping alive technology and equipment and the continuous extension of expressway to the hinterland, it has gradually become a reality for ordinary people in inland cities to eat live seafood like seaside people. This paper summarizes the answers to related questions in recent years for the reference of friends who have the same idea. \x1d\ For a new entrant with petty bourgeoisie (about 111,111 yuan) \x1d\ x1d \ First, the source of goods \ x1d \ x1d \ Don't look for the source of goods at the beginning \ x1d \ Seafood transportation has a prominent feature that the less it is transported, the higher the cost and the less easy it is to live. \x1d\ This should be easy to understand. If you transport more, you can have a large space and a large water body. If you keep up with oxygen and refrigeration, the survival rate will be high. The relative transportation cost will come down. \x1d\ Even if you know the origin of seafood, you will face a dilemma if you have little money. If you ship too much, you are worried that you won't be able to sell it. If you ship too little, the unit price will be too expensive. \x1d\ So our experience for so many years is, please don't do research on sourcing. Waste of energy, no gain. \x1d\ Find the nearest wholesale market to purchase goods \ x1d \ x1d \ So what should we do? Is to take advantage. Find the nearest provincial capital city or central city around you. If you are far away, congratulations, here is a blank sheet of paper, where you can show your talents. But remember, being a pioneer often pays more tuition than being a latecomer. If you are close, congratulations, maybe someone is already doing it, and you have the opportunity to learn from it and then surpass it. \x1d\ II. Investigate the market \ x1d \ x1d \ Understand the above truth, and you can start work. (I especially remind you not to sit in the office and study, so you may be a few steps behind.) \x1d\ First of all, I suggest you know about the local market. The best way is to invite some friends who know hotels (at least business) to eat in famous local restaurants several times. When eating, be careful to see if there is seafood. If there is, see what varieties are repeatedly recommended and what varieties are put in a conspicuous position. Write down the prices and go back. After eating a few times, you can almost know whether you can do it or not. \x1d\ The second thing to do is to visit the largest farmers' market. Generally, cities without specialized seafood markets will have aquatic products stalls in large farmers' markets. Take a camera, look at the varieties, ask about the prices, and talk about the changes of seafood varieties in different seasons. If you leave the local market, you can visit the nearest central city and provincial capital. Because you are away from home, the budget is relatively large. It is recommended to watch more and eat less. Ha ha. Another special point to note is that it is hard to cook seafood. The market usually opens before dawn, and the sun basically disappears. Those who love to sleep late should not try to do this business. \x1d\ III. Getting Started \ x1d \ x1d \ After the above investigation, you basically know the current market of local main varieties. It is suggested to start with the most sought-after goods, which will not make much money but will not be risky. You can also experience what it feels like to cook seafood. At first, don't make it too complicated. You would rather be a big variety than have everything and nothing deep. Don't always want to get some side doors, wait until you have some strength and fame. Because of your brilliant idea, maybe others have tried and failed. \x1d\ IV. Summary \x1d\ All right, let's summarize. In any industry, if you do well, you can tell others to follow your habits. You can ask him to pick up the goods or ask him to deliver them. On the contrary, you have to work hard to buy goods or even grab water, and then send them to the designated place according to others' orders. Now big hotels in big cities have professional seafood distribution company services. There are also large sources of goods, and cars are specially delivered to wholesale markets around the country. According to your own funds and strength, do your own links well, and slowly you will become a leader in this industry. The basic rule is that high-end seafood is transported by air and live, which mainly appears on the dining table of high-end hotels. It entered the inland big cities earlier and deeper. Expensive. There is no quantity. In the past, middle and low-grade seafood could not be transported to inland cities because of its long transportation time and unworthy of air transportation, but ordinary people could consume it and the demand was large. At present, the speed of trains has increased, and expressway has been built one after another, so that many middle and low-grade varieties can enter inland cities, and the seafood industry also has unprecedented development opportunities.
