In order to clearly understand food purchasing, we must first have an in-depth understanding of food purchasing from its origin and development history. The most fundamental reason for the rise of food purchasing agents is the development of the Internet. Because of the development of the Internet, our information dissemination speed is getting faster and faster, so a variety of Internet celebrity delicacies have been born. We are dazzled and see only delicacies from all over the country every day. You can see it but you can't eat it.

I now assume that the foodie is me. I live in Nanjing. Through the Internet, I learned that an Internet celebrity milk tea shop opened in Hangzhou. I especially drink a cup of XX milk tea. What should I do? The cost of my special trip to Hangzhou was really too high, so I thought of a way to reduce the cost. I posted it on a circle of friends and gathered friends in the circle of friends to come together for a group purchase. There must be people in the circle of friends who covet this milk tea as much as me. If 50 people from my circle of friends ordered milk tea through my call in a week, I would go to Hangzhou. The original price of each cup of milk tea would be 10 yuan, for example, so I could increase the price to 20 yuan, and then I would mix the milk tea with it. If you haggle at the store, maybe a cup only costs 8 yuan. If you calculate it this way, you can earn 12 yuan per cup, or 600 yuan for 50 cups. After removing all costs, I may still earn 300 yuan for this trip, so this is The initial entry-level model of gourmet food purchasing. After I made my first money this way, my mind opened up and I started my bigger plan.

Every place has a lot of unique local snacks. I can find the goods in person. As long as a certain order quantity is reached, I can send a dedicated buyer to pick up the goods. The same goes for other places. I just need to count the daily customer orders at our Nanjing transfer station, and then send the orders to the supplier one day in advance. The supplier prepares the goods in advance, and the buyer goes directly to pick up the goods. The goods are received at the transfer station, and then My customers will come to the transfer station to pick up the goods. I will stipulate that the buyer will deliver the purchased food to the transfer station before 12 o'clock every day. The customer will pick up the goods between 12 o'clock and 4 o'clock in the afternoon. This is basically the arrival of the food. This is the second stage of purchasing on behalf of others. Next, let me talk about the third stage of food purchasing. What is the third stage? The third stage is the change in my customer base. Before, my customers were C-end customers, facing consumers directly. But picking up the goods is too troublesome after all, so we found a transfer station that is closer to the C-side customers, that is, various snack stores and convenience stores. When customers place an order, we deliver it directly to the nearest convenience store. , each of us will give you a portion of the profit of the corresponding merchant. After a period of cooperation, the merchant sees that our business is very good, so he becomes dependent on us, because we can not only bring a part of the profit to the merchant, we are even bigger The function is to bring customer flow to merchants. Customer flow is the lifeblood of a merchant. At this time, we have moved towards the route of directly connecting and cooperating with merchants. Merchants themselves connect with their own customers and fan groups, order directly from us, and then come to us every day. It will be easier for us to pick up the goods at the transfer station, or deliver the goods according to the order quantity. We only need to find high-quality food sources, process the orders and accurately distribute the goods to the merchants. As our business grows, The bigger the market, the more people with supplies will contact me and come to supply me. Then hundreds of delicacies will be sent to me every day. We just need to do a good job in selecting food purchasing agents, and then we will solve the problem. The problem of supply channels has been solved, so the market is getting bigger and bigger. Thousands of buyers provide us with supplies, and merchants from all over the country come to order from us. We are a huge distribution center.
