v3 Chapter 1275： Average daily loss of 187 million

Latest website: The business capabilities of the acquisition team of Jiuding Securities are beyond doubt.

Xia Yu decided to complete the acquisition of eleven fresh and cooked food suppliers within two days, and complete the acquisition within two days.

Among these eleven suppliers, in addition to the seven that discontinued the 7-11 convenience store, the other four suppliers did not participate in the discontinuation, but they were also strongly bought.

It's just that this kind of acquisition that relies purely on money has efficiency, but it costs more.

Eleven fresh and cooked food suppliers, including Kuroki Cooking Company, Matsuno Sushi Company, Blue House Food Company, Kappa Cooking Company, and Tokubei Food Company, were all acquired at a cost of 16.74 billion yen.

After completing the acquisition of these eleven fresh and cooked food suppliers, Jiuding Securities immediately transferred the ownership to the 7-11 convenience store.

The crisis of food shortage in 7-11 convenience stores was lifted instantly, and there was no future trouble.

But in this case, it is Ito Yokado convenience store that is uncomfortable.

On the morning of November 18th, All Daily News and some newspapers all reported relevant news.

"...Eleven fresh food suppliers such as Kuroki Restaurant, Matsuno Sushi, Aoya, Kappa Restaurant, Tokubei, etc., will terminate their cooperation with Ito Yokado convenience store and sign with 7-11 convenience store from today. Long-term supply agreement, if consumers buy goods of the above brands, please go to the 7-11 convenience store."

"すげえ!"

Early in the morning, Hao Aoki, the president of Lawson Convenience Store, had just arrived at the company. When he flipped through the news on the "All Day News", he couldn't help but exclaim.

"It was completely unexpected. I thought that the 7-11 convenience store was able to mobilize food from a five-star hotel urgently. I didn't expect their counterattack to come so quickly and so violently."

"It's really a strong opponent, it's really different if it's backed by a big consortium."

After sighing, Aoki Hao's face was full of solemnity.

From this point alone, he can feel the horror of the 7-11 convenience store.

He thinks in another way. If Lawson Convenience Store encounters this kind of crisis, it will be difficult for him to resolve the crisis within two days, and he will smoothly transition halfway.

Of course, given the size of the Daiei Group behind the Lawson Convenience Store, no supplier would dare to do this unless they are willing to be the enemy of the island's largest retail group.

"Now it is Toshibumi Suzuki who is anxious, haha..."

Aoki couldn't help smiling, as if thinking of his old rival Suzuki Min's desperate mood.

"Although the 7-11 convenience store is a strong opponent, but now the Ito Yokado convenience store has suffered another heavy blow. Let's implement it according to the original plan. We should do it too."

After murmured, Hao Aoki immediately asked the secretary to notify all the executives of the meeting.

...

The situation was exactly what Aoki had imagined.

When Suzuki Toshifumi learned that his confession had been cut off, his whole person was furious, and he yelled at 7-11 convenience store in the office.

Nearly a thousand Ito Yokado convenience stores have all fresh food cut off, and the impact is disastrous, much greater than the crisis encountered by 7-11 convenience stores!

And there is no room for maneuver, it has been made public.

Although the circulation of the "Janji Shimbun" is not as influential as the newspapers such as "Yomiuri Shimbun" and "Asahi Shimbun", it is also a newspaper with a daily circulation of more than three million copies.

Coupled with reports from other newspapers, I don't know how many consumers knew about Ito Yokado at this moment. Some consumers even entered the store to verify the authenticity of the news.

It is impossible for Suzuki Toshibumi to resolve this crisis immediately.

The number of Ito Yokado Convenience Stores proud of increases the difficulty.

On that day, the average daily turnover of Ito Yokado convenience store plummeted to 225,000 yen.

In the next two days.

The average daily sales of a single store were 204,000 yen and 197,000 yen respectively.

It was not until the fourth day of the crisis that Toshifumi Suzuki solved the problem of fresh food supply in all stores.

The solution is not a long-term solution, because he divides all the stores into areas, and then looks for local restaurants and suppliers of a certain size, so that they can provide fresh food.

Just because it is not a unified supplier, the quality of fresh food is uneven, and the variety is not as rich as before.

But it is better than no fresh food supply.

As a result, the average daily turnover of Ito Yokado convenience store has finally rebounded, but it has not returned to the 300,000 yen mark, only 269,000 yen, and the gross profit margin of the single store’s comprehensive merchandise has fallen. A bit.

No way, in convenience stores, the turnover and gross profit of fresh and cooked food is terrible.

In the 7-11 convenience store period, fresh food products accounted for more than 50% of the total gross profit!

Because of the fresh food products, the sales of other products have been driven.

The fresh food products of Ito Yokado Convenience Store are now fully rebranded, and almost all the customers who are keen to buy fresh food have been driven away.

Suzuki Toshifumi did not breathe a sigh of relief, and new crises broke out one after another.

First, Lawson Convenience Store announced the launch of a one-month promotion, and then FamilyMart and 7-11 convenience stores also announced a one-month promotion.

The passenger flow and turnover of Ito Yokado Convenience Store just stabilized plummeted again, falling below 200,000 yen per day for a single store.

But Suzuki Toshifumi and Ito Masatoshi hesitated to follow up. After thinking about it for two days, they saw that the situation was not good, so they could only grit their teeth to follow up and fight the price war.

Toshifumi Suzuki, who has always claimed to retain customers with quality and absolutely no price war, slapped himself in the face.

Even so, the revenue of Ito Yokado convenience store has only stabilized at around 200,000 yen, with relatively large fluctuations.

As soon as the activity started, the company's daily loss rose from 133 million yen to 187 million yen.

The crisis does not stop there.

7-11 convenience store and Lawson convenience store also wielded hoes to dig people. In a short period of time, nearly 1,000 people from Ito Yokado convenience store applied for resignation.

Among the nearly 1,000 people, 847 were dug by 7-11 convenience stores.

Given the number of employees in the personnel department of the 7-11 convenience store, if you want to mobilize these 847 talents, you can't sleep without rest.

But with the full cooperation of a headhunting company such as Korn Ferry International Island Branch, it is not going too smoothly.

The digging operation has not stopped.

The resignation report still flew to the personnel department of Ito Yokado convenience store.

Toshifumi Suzuki was struggling with this, but there was no good solution. He couldn't provide higher positions and better salaries.

With the current revenue of the Ito Yokado convenience store, it is already operating at a loss. Once the salary is increased, the entire company's salary system will be affected. A person's monthly salary plus 5,000 yen (equivalent to HK$140), the entire company More than 5,000 employees have to increase management costs by more than 27 million yen every month, which is more than 300 million a year!

For people who want to quit and change jobs, a monthly salary plus 5,000 yen is a shit!

If you move to a 7-11 convenience store, you can at least be promoted to one level. The salary of the same level of the 7-11 convenience store is higher than that of the Ito Yokado convenience store, not to mention the salary corresponding to the position with the least higher level. ?

One-fifth of the employees applied for resignation, making the entire Ito Yokado Convenience Store more popular. The top people such as Toshifumi Suzuki wanted to suppress the discussion of the people below, but after working hard, they found that the effect was not great.

Many department managers in the middle and lower levels have issued resignation reports, and they are upset. How can the team lead them?

Unless these people who have applied for resignation are cleared out of the company as soon as possible, the consequence of the cleanup is that the strength of the 7-11 convenience store will rapidly increase, the expansion speed will be further accelerated, and the company will have major problems because the business is not completely handed over.

No way, Suzuki Toshifumi can only press the resignation report from the human resources department, and then open recruitment on a large scale.

One month passed in a flash of disturbance.

It is worth mentioning that on November 28, UU Reading passed all the bills of the current Congress at the 100th (provisional) Congress of the island nation, but then, the opposition parties proposed to Congress. After the cabinet distrust bill, Yasuhiro Nakasone immediately announced the dissolution of the House of Representatives and discussed the general election agenda.

On December 3, the cabinet of Yasuhiro Nakasone issued a complete election announcement. The election day for the House of Representatives election was set for December 18. Voting will start at 8 o'clock in the morning, and vote counting will start at 8 o'clock in the evening, and it will be in December. On the morning of the 19th, the results of the general election were announced in various places.

So as soon as December entered, the intensity of competition in the general election skyrocketed by several levels, and all candidates from all sides used the largest resources to hold election activities.

Major television stations, radio stations, newspapers, and other media are constantly bombing day and night.

In the face of the general election, the fierce struggle in the island country's convenience store industry was almost overwhelmed.

Finally, it's December 18th.

With the dawn breaking through the darkness, the island nation's House of Representatives election vote that has affected countless people's minds finally began.
