Thirteen stores are not as small as the previous two stores.
Tens of thousands of pounds of fruit are sold every day.
Among them, the sales volume of organic green fruits accounts for 30%, which is four to five thousand kilograms.
Four or five thousand catties a day, ten days is four to fifty thousand catties, and one month is one hundred thousand catties.
The fruit stored in Wu Siyuan's [Shennongjiao Space] is 200,000 jins. Counting the fruit hanging on the branches, it is less than 300,000 jins.
According to this sales volume, these hundreds of thousands of kilograms of fruit can last for two to three months.
In fact, after so many months of sales, there are less than 100,000 kilograms of fruit left in [Shennongjiao Space].
This little fruit may not last even a month.
However, it will take several months to wait until the fruit trees in [Shennongjiao Space] bear fruit on a large scale, even if the conditions of the space are unique.
In a few months, the day lilies have become cold.
Purely natural and pollution-free organic green fruits can be said to be the trump card of [Shennong Orchard] now, and there is no room for error.
There was no other way, so Wu Siyuan had no choice but to reduce the organic fruit quotas in major stores.
But this will inevitably lead to a decrease in store sales performance and the opinions of some loyal customers.
Difficult!
Ordinary fruits also have problems in this regard.
The sales volume of [Shen Nong Orchard] has increased, and it has become a big customer of the fruit wholesale market. The fruit wholesale bosses all smiled when they saw Wu Siyuan's expression.
But...the number of good fruits on the market is limited.
In other words, there are only a limited number of good-quality fruits. Wu Siyuan relied on [Detection Aura] to take away the best-quality batch from the fruit wholesale market.
However, this quantity is increasingly difficult to meet the sales demand of [Shen Nong Orchard].
Relatively speaking, the quality of other fruits is not that good, which means that the loss will be relatively high, which will lower the profit margin of the entire company by seven to eight points, or even a dozen points.
Wu Siyuan was also in a dilemma and could only go to another fruit wholesale market to purchase goods.
But this fruit wholesale market is far away from Wu Siyuan's area. As a result, not only the transportation cost increases, but more importantly, Wu Siyuan's time is also wasted a lot, and it feels increasingly difficult to balance it all.
.
He stated this issue at the company's monthly meeting, "Fruit quality is the lifeline of our company."
"With the improvement of our company's performance and the growth of fruit sales, it has become increasingly difficult to meet our needs solely by relying on the supply of fruit wholesale markets."
"Like [Qianguoyuan], after more than ten years of layout, they have more than 160 fruit planting bases across the country, and they have their own planting technology and fertilizers. They have also expanded into the field of financial supply chain services to provide farmers with planting and promotion
, financial services in sales and other aspects."
"Although our company started slowly, we have a good attitude towards development. In order to further develop, it is imperative to go to the fields, go to the source, and directly establish our company's fruit production base."
After listening carefully, the company's vice president Su Shixian pondered for a moment and asked Wu Siyuan, "Mr. Wu, you are right. Any fruit company must have its own fruit production base. However, the investment in fruit production bases is high.
The problem of long cycles is like watermelons, strawberries, cherry tomatoes and other fruits. It takes us close to a year to harvest them."
"If it is other perennial fruits, it will take longer."
"If this happens, it will inevitably put a lot of pressure on our company's capital chain."
[Shennong Orchard] is expanding very quickly. From the perspective of the company's vice president Su Shixian, he does not disagree with Wu Siyuan's idea. Looking at peers in the industry, any medium or large fruit chain company has its own direct fruit production base.
, or use the form of contract farming to turn many fruit farmers into their own fixed fruit producers and direct procurement bases, thereby obtaining high-quality, low-cost fruits.
It's just that [Shennong Orchard] is expanding a bit too quickly, and he hopes to slow down a bit and lay a solid foundation.
After hearing this, Wu Siyuan turned to look at the financial director Lin Meiyi and said, "Director Lin, what is the current financial situation of our company?"
"The company currently has 2.21 million yuan of its own, of which about 800,000 yuan is the company's fixed expenses, and the working capital is only about 1.3 million yuan." Lin Meiyi said.
For an ordinary person, 1.3 million yuan is a huge amount of money.
But for agricultural input, it is a drop in the bucket.
Land transfer, sapling fertilizers, agricultural machinery and labor, etc. all cost money, and they cost a lot of money.
That's why Su Shixian had this idea of "taking it easy".
But Wu Siyuan knew that he couldn't wait any longer, because he was getting more and more good products just by purchasing from the fruit wholesale market.
And the inventory of his [Shennongjiao Space] is about to be exhausted.
If you want to continue to maintain the high-quality fruit status of [Shennong Orchard], then the loss rate will increase significantly until it eats up the company's profits.
Therefore, it is urgent to lay out the fruit planting industry.
Of course, by extending his hand into the fruit growing industry, Wu Siyuan also had the idea of further increasing his influence.
Don't forget, his [Shennongjiao Space] also has the function of "secondary seed optimization". It is 25% better to plant, which means that the same seeds, others can harvest 1,000 kilograms per acre, and Wu Siyuan's one
The harvest per mu is 1,250 kilograms.
Once the base is set, this is a very scary figure. It can be said that without considering other conditions, the gross profit rate is 25% higher than that of other fruit farmers.
Of course, the reality is definitely not that high.
But it can guarantee his absolute advantage in the field of fruit planting.
With such a "golden thigh", Wu Siyuan's confidence is much stronger than Su Shixian and Lin Meiyi.
So he said, "I know that the investment in establishing a fruit production base will be huge, which will put a lot of pressure on the company's existing capital chain. But when a tall building is built, we don't have to spend millions or tens of millions right away.
Make an investment.”
"We can start small, build a small fruit production base, accumulate experience step by step, and prepare for large-scale investment in the future."
"At the same time, like other fruit wholesalers, we have to go to the fields of fruit farmers to directly purchase fruits and obtain first-hand supply."
[Shen Nong Orchard] must also cultivate its own fruit purchasing, otherwise, Wu Siyuan will be busy working alone and he will be exhausted.
Although in the early days, the quality of the fruits purchased from these fruits will definitely not be comparable to that of Wu Siyuan, who has [Detection Aura], but as time goes by, their abilities will also improve, and the loss rate will definitely come down. At that time, Wu Siyuan will have to take care of the last hurdle.
In this way, Wu Siyuan can easily make a lot of money without having to work hard, which is even more tiring than working as a worker!
"Manager Guan, please organize a study and give me a feasibility report when the time comes." Wu Siyuan announced the task.
"Yes, Mr. Wu!" The boss said so, and Su Shixian could only execute it.
