The rule of last-minute food is as follows: the warehouse price is 10% to 30% off the original price of the product, and the retail price is 30% to 50% off the original price of the product. Taobao's last-minute price is basically 50% off, or even more than 50% off. To some extent, this is no longer a last-minute price, but a disguised discount. Therefore, when searching for expired food on Taobao, you can only buy it for yourself and cannot sell it.

2. 1688, the prices of the products above are relatively competitive. For example, 100 packs of crispy noodles cost 30 yuan, which is equivalent to less than 30% off the original price. The price mentioned for the ramen is 8.5 yuan, which is equivalent to 40% off the original price.

3. Fight for Xixi. For example, a can of rio costs 4 yuan. You can find products at 30-50% off, which basically meet the purchase price standard that can be sold, but the profit margin is still too low. If you want to get products with 10 to 30% off, you have to put in some effort.

4. Enter a large number of retail industries and dealer groups. After joining the group, you can capture a lot of information about food that is about to expire.

Laws on expired foods:

All provinces and cities across the country have issued relevant local management regulations for "expired foods", such as the "Guangzhou City Management Measures for Foods Nearing the Shelf-Period and Foods Beyond the Shelf-Period" "Notice of the Zhejiang Provincial Food and Drug Administration on Issuing the Food Management System (Trial) for Food Approaching the Shelf Period", etc. These management regulations clearly classify the "imminent expiration" definition of "immediate expiry food" into two types:

First, food that is within the specified number of days before the expiration date of the shelf life is defined as "imminent expiry food" . For example, if the shelf life is more than 1 year, 30 days before the expiration date; if the shelf life is more than half a year and less than 1 year, 20 days before the expiration date; if the shelf life is more than 30 days but less than half a year, 10 days before the expiration date; the shelf life is If the shelf life is more than 15 days and less than 30 days, 5 days before the expiration date; if the shelf life is more than 2 days but less than 15 days, 1 day before the expiration date. Foods with a shelf life of less than 2 days or where relevant national standards allow no shelf life to be marked will not have an approaching shelf life.

Second, food that is within a specified proportion of days before the expiration date of the shelf life is defined as "imminent expiry food". For example, the term "imported food nearing the shelf life" in relevant regulations refers to imported food that has generally exceeded 2/3 of the shelf life when obtaining the inspection and quarantine certificate for entry goods.

In January 2012, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce issued a document clearly requiring food operators to provide consumers with eye-catching reminders of food that is about to expire. In other words, food that has reached the critical shelf life needs to be notified to customers and Sold separately.
