Thirty million!
This number immediately caused an uproar.
The reporters present had actually come to interview him. They must have done their homework in advance. They knew very well that although the supermarket was popular now, each store had its own limit.
For example, Lianhua Supermarket's annual turnover of two billion was brought in by 200 stores. On average, each store's annual turnover was only 10 million.
On the other hand, Walmart and Carrefour, the two giants that entered the Chinese market, had an average turnover of about 200 million per store. Their monthly turnover was at most 20 million.
Red Flag Supermarket, on the other hand, had a turnover of 30 million in just two days of opening, which was comparable to the turnover of Walmart or Carrefour for one and a half months!
Especially when Zhang Mu said that Red Flag Supermarket's turnover had broken the record of all supermarkets in China, some reporters quickly thought of something and asked their own questions.
The reporters had too many questions, and everyone's focus was different. After Zhang Mu noted down a few important questions, he raised his hand and said,
"Everyone, don't be anxious. I'll answer them one by one.”
"Boss Zhang, is your company going to compete with Lianhua, Wal-Mart, and Carrefour?”
Zhang Mu: " This reporter friend is right. We do want to challenge Lianhua, Wal-Mart, and Carrefour, but not just them. Our goal is to compete with all our peers in China and even go out of China to compete with Wal-Mart and Carrefour on the international stage!”
Just the answer to the first question made all the reporters excited. Zhang Mu's words alone were enough to write an exciting report!
However, they were all professionals and would not just ask a general question. Immediately, another reporter asked,
"Mr. Zhang, what are your goals for the supermarket? What are your expectations for the first month and the year's turnover?”
Zhang Mu: " The goal is as I said just now. Red Flag Supermarket vows to become the largest supermarket chain in China until it reaches the international stage!" " As for the turnover, let's set a small target first. The first month's turnover will exceed 200 million, and the annual turnover will exceed 800 million. I'm talking about the shop on Nanjing Road!”
"Director Zhang, Red Flag Supermarket is a hit. But as far as I know, Lianhua Supermarket has been established in Shanghai for several years. At the same time, Walmart and Carrefour have already entered the Shanghai market. What is the next strategic plan of Red Flag Supermarket?”
Zhang Mu: " Walmart and Carrefour are currently the top two supermarket chains in the country. However, their market share in Shanghai alone is not comparable to Lianhua. Therefore, in Shanghai, we only have one competitor, and that is Lianhua!”
"President Zhang, Red Flag Supermarket's turnover is very high. A conservative estimate is that the annual turnover is at least 500 million, and it's even possible to reach the annual turnover of 800 million you just mentioned. However, the total turnover of Lianhua, Wal-Mart, and Carrefour far exceeds this figure. Does your company have any plans to open a branch?”
Zhang Mu: " This reporter asked a very good question. I just want to introduce our next development plan to everyone. The turnover of the three supermarkets you mentioned did exceed ours, but that's because they have more stores than us.”
"In terms of single store, Red Flag Supermarket is definitely the supermarket with the highest turnover in Shanghai and even the whole country! "And we can't rely on this store forever. Next, we'll start the branch store plan.”
"Our goal is to have Red Flag Supermarket set up branches in all the provincial capitals and first-tier cities across the country before the Spring Festival this year!”
Whoosh!
If Zhang Mu's words just now were just to make everyone happy that there was news to report, then what Zhang Mu said after that really shocked all the reporters present!
Set a small goal first. Break through 200 million in the first month and 800 million in the year?
Even though he had known how popular Red Flag Supermarket had been in the past two days, and he had witnessed it with his own eyes this morning, he was still shocked by the number.
Not many companies in China could achieve an annual turnover of 800 million!
Even Jianlibao, which was extremely popular in the country, was only sold for 3 billion annually.
If Red Flag Supermarket could really reach a turnover of 800 million yuan, the sales of Jianlibao would only be three times that of Red Flag Supermarket.
How many years had Jianlibao been established? How long had Red Flag Supermarket been established? How many employees did Jianlibao have? How big was Hongqi Supermarket?
One was to face the entire country and had even begun to export, while the other was only to face the people of Shanghai.
Even though everyone knew that the supermarket industry had low profits, the turnover was too high!
Based on this turnover, even if each store only had an annual turnover of 500 million, once Red Flag Supermarket opened a few more stores, how terrifying would the total turnover be?
Especially what did Zhang Mu say just now?
Red Flag Supermarket was preparing to open at least 30 branches in all first-tier and provincial capitals before the end of the year?
If Red Flag Supermarket really opened so many branches, how terrifying would the annual turnover be?
Billions? Ten billion? Or even more than ten billion?
"Boss Zhang, is what you said just now true? Is your supermarket really going to open at least 30 branches before the end of the year?”
"Director Zhang, do you mean that Red Flag Supermarket will enter most of the provincial capitals and first-tier cities before the new year?”
"Director Zhang, do you have anything to add to the branches that will be opened in the provincial capitals and first-tier cities? What would the scale of these branches be? Would they be the same as the one on Nanjing Road?”
"President Zhang..."
Zhang Mu raised his hand and pressed down again. The excited reporters gradually calmed down and looked at Zhang Mu without blinking, waiting for his answer.
"That's right. The next branch stores we're going to open will all be large supermarkets with an area of at least 5,000 square meters. It'll be used to facilitate consumers to purchase directly from Red Flag Supermarket.”
"And yesterday, we have confirmed the plan for the Shanghai Bund branch and have already rented the store. We can start operating after the renovation is completed.”
"Next, we will first target first-tier cities such as Yanjing, Yuecheng, and Shencheng, and slowly sink into other cities…”
