Local seabet betting stores compete with industry giants
“7-11&seabet betting;Entering Hubei，Wuhan must be their first choice，After entering Wuhan, it will quickly stir up the Wuhan convenience store market。Same pattern，Two years ago，Zhongbai Group signed a cooperation agreement with Lawson Co., Ltd., Japan’s second largest convenience store，Zhongbai Supermarket Co., Ltd. becomes a franchisee of Lawson Co., Ltd.’s regional franchise。“Currently，There are 250 locations in Wuhan，Probably expanded to 300 stores this year。&seabet betting;Said by a person from Zhongbai Lawson，In May last year，Opened 100 stores quickly in less than a year。
Competing with global convenience store giants，Local convenience stores have a fighting chance。Just announced the completion of 300 million yuan in Series B+ financing，Today convenience store with a valuation of over 3 billion yuan has opened in Wuhan、Changsha、Nearly 400 stores in Nanning，Different from traditional convenience stores“Fresh Life&seabet betting;New retail store，It opened more than 300 stores in Wuhan in just over 3 years。
The total number of stores of another local chain brand Muchen seabet betting has exceeded 200，And plans to open 80 new stores this year。
Different from the Wuhan convenience store market three or four years ago，Today，Competition is becoming increasingly fierce，A local convenience store failed after opening for two years。An operator calculated the accounts for the reporter，Take a 24-hour convenience store as an example，The operating cost is very high。The cost at night is mainly labor and electricity。If you only need to hire 4 employees，If you stay up all night，You will need to add two more，In one month, labor expenses increased by 6,000 yuan，The nighttime electricity bill also increased by 40%，More than 1,000 yuan spent。24-hour convenience store，Only when the consumption turnover reaches more than 500 yuan during the day and night (0:00 to 8:00) can one be profitable，But generally，Nighttime sales are only one or two hundred yuan。Besides，The proportion of sales at night to the whole day is only 1/10，“Not strong enough，It’s hard to bear it。&seabet betting;
Compared to Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen，Wuhan is still a convenience store“Depression&seabet betting;。Judging from the results of the China Chain Store and Franchise Association’s survey in 36 cities，Harbin、Wuhan、Changsha is the three cities with the fastest growing convenience stores in my country。
Previously，The consumption at night is the barbecue stall，Food stalls，Now convenience stores can provide more services。Changes in consumption habits，Let more competitors delay store closing time，Future，24-hour convenience stores will also become standard。Introduction from Wuhan Municipal Commerce Bureau，“Thirteenth Five-Year Plan&seabet betting;Period，Wuhan will add about 1,000 24-hour convenience stores。
