0 1. 18 yuan's self-service hotpot restaurant with extremely low cost of ingredients is actually just a mala Tang with a different name. Most of the ingredients in it are vegetables, noodles, vermicelli, bean products, or some meatballs, fish tofu and the like. There are few fruits, and some are cheaper discounted fruits on the market. Small fruits, such as cherry tomatoes and winter dates, will be placed directly on the turntable. Others, such as apples, will be cut into small pieces and put on them.

However, the cost of these ingredients is very low. If individuals go to the supermarket to buy these frozen products, they can buy a large pot for 20 yuan, and it is even cheaper for the boss to go directly to the manufacturer to get the goods. Vegetables may be more expensive, and the boss will go to the supermarket to buy them or wholesale them in the vegetable market. Others, such as yam, lotus root slices and fungus, are usually bought separately.

The same is true of fruit. Apples can be bought by car from the north. Even if they don't look good, peeling and dicing doesn't matter much. So 18 yuan alone, most people have actually eaten enough, and at most, the boss will not lose money.

Extra consumption, higher unit price. 18 yuan needs extra money for one person, just one pot bottom and the dishes on the turntable. Bowls and chopsticks are free, but dipping sauce requires extra 3 yuan money. If the guest's mouth is spicy and salty, the drinks in the store need to be bought by the guest himself.

At the same time, besides the ingredients on the turntable, there will be other things that need to be paid. For example, we will prepare some fat cows, sheep and shrimps, and many guests will add one more if they want to eat some meat. One advantage is that if a guest orders a plate of fat beef and puts it there, other guests will inexplicably think that the meatballs in their pot are not fragrant, and will soon order a plate and put it there.

Therefore, a large part of the buffet hot pot restaurant, and even the main source of income is this.

Small profits but quick turnover, improve the rate of changing tables, eat buffet hot pot, mostly one or two people, rarely more than four people. So although there are 90 minutes for guests, most people leave after eating for 30-40 minutes. The main reason is that those ingredients are too full, such as noodles, vermicelli, lotus root slices and some meatballs. Put a pot down, add a bottle of carbonated drinks, and you will soon be full.

After eating, because the stools in the shop have no backrest and are close to each other, it is not very comfortable for everyone to sit together and talk, and it is not very convenient for three or four people to sit together and chat like a big hot pot restaurant. So many people eat and leave. The boss cleaned up and immediately changed a group of people.

Low rent and low labor cost. The reason why people think that self-service hot pot restaurants with more than ten dollars are easy to close down is actually subconsciously compared with big hot pot restaurants. In fact, there is not much difference in cost between this self-help hot pot restaurant and the shops like maocai and Pollen. Moreover, such shops are relatively small, as long as they are not in particularly prosperous areas, the rent will not be too high.

The decoration in the store is also simple: powder the walls and put up some posters. At the same time, because the store is small and has its own ingredients, it doesn't cost much at all. The boss is responsible for cashier and entertaining customers. One of the chefs is responsible for cutting fruit and meat, and the other employee and I are responsible for washing vegetables and serving. You don't need a cook. So don't worry too much about employees' salaries.

This restaurant, which doesn't need too many fancy things, can control costs and make stable profits, can continue to operate.

Is it still suitable to open a buffet hotpot restaurant? In this regard, my personal suggestion is that the current market is no longer suitable for this kind of business. First of all, the rise of this small hot pot was before, and now there are many hot pot restaurants and buffet hot pot restaurants. At that time, people wanted to be fresh and cheap.

But according to my observation, many friends don't want to eat it again after eating it once, so now everyone doesn't like it, and it is difficult to find new consumers. Secondly, the catering industry and all kinds of new stores are trying to attract customers. For young people, either everyone has a good meal with AA or they choose to eat other fast food. Few people eat this kind of hot pot alone.

Finally, every industry has its own way of survival, and small hot pot restaurants will also have their own unique business model. Finally, I would like to add that the ingredients in the hot pot may not be very advanced and the taste is not very good, but the food safety problem can still be guaranteed, so you can rest assured.
