In fact, even without a membership card, Red Flag Supermarket could expand at will.
Based on the current sales figures, a conservative estimate of the annual turnover was at least 500 million yuan. In three months, it would be at least 100 million yuan. Excluding the goods that could not be used as collateral, it would be at least 60 million yuan.
Excluding the last month's settlement period, there would not be any problems if he used 20 to 30 million.
Twenty to thirty million yuan was enough to open two supermarkets of the same size. After the new supermarket opened, they could also detain the payment from the supplier and use the money to open a new store.
As long as the business of the newly opened supermarkets was good, it could continue like this. One supermarket became two, two became three, and so on.
Walmart and Carrefour had long been familiar with these tricks. They had even been playing this game, using the supplier's money to make more money and seek greater benefits.
In the future, those domestic supermarket chains would also expand according to this routine, but those that eventually went bankrupt and were cleared were completely crazy.
They even used all the money of the supplier to expand. Once the new supermarket did not operate normally or the turnover decreased in a short period of time, the capital chain would instantly break.
However, using less than half of the payment was basically not a problem, especially now that the supermarket industry was not like a decade later, where competition was fierce and the impact of e-commerce.
Nowadays, there were no supermarkets in many places. As long as there were supermarkets, business would definitely not be bad!
During this period, many industries in the country, including supermarkets, could make money just by lying down. At this time, the few supermarket chains in the country were afraid of competing with international giants like Walmart and Carrefour, and they missed the best time for development.
The final result was that the two families had plundered countless funds in the country.
Even if countless domestic supermarkets raised the banner of counterattack in the later stages and gradually reduced the market share of the two companies, the other party had already earned enough money in China for nearly 20 years!
After Carrefour made enough money, it realized that it was no longer easy to make money in China. It directly sold all its assets in China to Chinese companies and made the last profit before withdrawing from the Chinese market.
Although the two families had started earlier than him, their development speed was not too fast. This year could be said to be a year of economic prosperity. The consumption level of the people was also gradually increasing. The two families would also develop wantonly and expand their camps.
Faced with the other party's strong capital, Zhang Mu could only think of a membership system to break the situation. Not only could he expand quickly, but there would also be no risk.
If other supermarkets were to expand like crazy, they would have to open new stores for a while before they could expand again.
Then Red Flag Supermarket would expand from one to two, two to four, and four to eight!
Because Red Flag Supermarket was an overdrawn membership fee, and not all of it was the payment for the goods, there was basically no risk.
Zhang Mu could think of this, but Qiu Zhongjie and Chen Yizhou didn't think of it at first. But Zhang Mu had already made it so clear. If the two of them still couldn't think of it, they would really not be suitable to be the general manager of Red Flag Supermarket.
"I understand, Chairman Zhang. I'll prepare for the Bund branch with President Chen tomorrow!”
Qiu Zhongjie was extremely excited now. When he was at Carrefour in Shen Cheng, he had never been able to climb up. He had never had a good choice to jump ship.
It was not easy for him to come across Red Flag, a relatively suitable place, but he also felt that Red Flag's development could not compare to Carrefour's.
But after all, it was a Chinese company. In the future, there would be no general manager who would always suppress him. He would do all the work, but the benefits would be taken away by the general manager sent by Carrefour.
However, the terrifying sales on the first day of Red Flag Supermarket's opening and Zhang Mu's unconventional way of breaking the situation had directly refreshed his original concept.
Qiu Zhongjie even believed that Red Flag Supermarket would soon catch up with Carrefour in China and even become the largest supermarket chain in China. It was not uncertain that it would be able to stabilize its position as the leader!
Of course, he didn't dare to think about going international. That was too difficult.
"That's right, Mr. Zhang. Before we opened this store, I inspected the shop on the Bund. The place I originally looked at shouldn't have been rented out yet.”
Chen Yizhou was also very excited. He said,
"Although the rent at the Bund is more expensive, the area is about one-third smaller than ours. It's estimated to be about seven or eight thousand square meters, so if we open a branch there, the cost won't be higher than this one.”
"Today, our sales reached more than 17 million. Even if we settle the payment for the electrical appliances, we will still have a few million or even close to ten million left. At most, our turnover will be enough to open a branch tomorrow!”
Why was it said that one could earn money just by opening a supermarket?
The daily turnover of Red Flag Supermarket was enough to open a new branch!
As for other large supermarkets, even if they didn't give out cola in the early stages and didn't do so much, their turnover would still be terrifying in the first few days of their opening.
The turnover in a week was enough to open a new store. Otherwise, how could Lianhua have expanded to more than 200 stores in just a few years?
"Alright, I don't care about this anymore. You two can do as you see fit. The two of you can discuss the details and tell me the final result.”
Zhang Mu nodded and said,"
" Contact your news agency later and invite some of the more famous local and domestic news agencies to come over for an interview…"
"An interview? Are we going to publicize our first day's turnover of more than ten million?”
Qiu Zhongjie asked.
"That's right. Tell them that our first day's turnover reached 17 million, which is almost three times the result of Walmart's peak. I believe they will be happy to come and interview us.”
Zhang Mu replied,"
"At the same time, inform our suppliers, especially Changhong, Haier, Xinfei, Bubugao, and other companies to help promote their products. Their products are selling so well in our supermarket, so we definitely won't reject them.”
"This time, not only do we have to let Walmart and Carrefour know, but we also have to publicize it so that the people of the country are looking forward to our Red Flag supermarket opening a branch there!”
"We have to let all our domestic competitors know that Red Flag Supermarket is here!”
