Xibei Hot Pot's 'Harsh' Pricing Strategy: Prices Cut Instead of Raised, Netizens Ask If They Can Get a Refund for Increased Prices?
Recently, many places have been gradually recovering to normal life, and everyone is thinking that they can finally return to the previous state. Many people have rushed out to eat and feel the various delicious flavors again. However, the reality is not so 'cute'.
- Now even milk tea can't be affordable
This sentence has become the voice of many people now.
Originally, many catering enterprises have started to raise prices. For example, a famous milk tea brand, many products have increased prices by a few yuan, a cup of milk tea needs 30 yuan, so some netizens have expressed that they can't afford it.Moreover, many foods have followed suit, and some netizens said that they were originally planning to go back to Open Small Stove to eat hot pot, and they were suddenly 'dumbfounded' when they looked at the price on the menu.An average of over 200 yuan, half a portion of potatoes costs 13 yuan, which is 1.5 yuan per small piece
Rice and seasonings have also risen in price. How can we eat happily?Therefore, in recent days, catering price increases have become a topic complained about by ordinary people, and it has also been hotly discussed on the Internet. Originally, everyone was thinking that they could 'revenge consumption'
- It was just a fantasy. Now it's 'revenge price increase'!
Apology statements have been delivered
Fortunately, after being hotly discussed for a few days, many catering enterprises have come out to respond. Large chain hot pot stores such as Haidaolou issued apology statements, stating that this price increase was a wrong decision, harmed customers' hearts, and all stores' prices were restored to the standard before they stopped in January. All consumers' feelings have been restored
Another large chain store, Sibei, followed suit, and Chairman Jia Guolong personally stated that at this time, it was not appropriate to raise prices. All stores' prices were also restored to the level of January. What's more, they will launch more discounts, and every time you have a meal, you can get a discount for the next meal
- It seems that Sibei and Haidaolou are 'wind beacons' in the industry. Their actions will affect the decisions of other small catering enterprises. Now that Sibei and Haidaolou have withdrawn their previous decisions, it clearly shows that in this difficult time, there should not be such a major action. It's not the right time to raise prices
Come to eat, we won't raise prices!At the same time, it also conveys to the broad consumers that after the difficulty, everyone should come out to spend more, we won't raise prices, everything can be like in the past, can be calmly come out to eat. After all, the number of consumers and the survival of the catering industry are closely related
Some netizens joked that since the price has been reduced, can we still get a refund for the hot pot we ate with increased prices?
The answer is of course negative. When consumers vote with their 'feet' and get the desired result, we should still come out to eat as usual. Only then can we truly achieve the gradual recovery of production in various industries
One sentence,Come to eat, not raising prices!Of course, at this moment, it is still important to pay attention to the hygiene of eating, to ensure the personal health, what should be done can still be done. That's it, we can really restore production in various industries
