Chapter 765 Logistics Layout
The next afternoon, in the reception area of ​​Li Guangyu's office, Li Xuelan was reporting the situation of Hengyu Supermarket Group to Li Guangyu.

After Li Xuelan's voice fell, Li Guangyu said: "Now that the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate has stabilized, there is also good news. There will be no more panic buying of supplies. You have to calculate these days. Due to the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate drop, we will The cost of imported products, adjust the selling price of supermarket products."

"At the same time, contact the fresh agricultural products import and export trading company in Pengcheng, mainland China, to negotiate a new purchase unit price, determine a reasonable purchase price, and express our gratitude to them for their support during this time."

If the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate hadn't stabilized for a long time, Li Xuelan would have wanted to adjust the price of products. After all, their supermarket group also has to eat, employees have to pay salaries, and stores have to pay rent. Such operations make them unable to make profits at all.

Now the situation has finally stabilized. At this time, the residents of Xiangjiang will not say anything about adjusting the prices of imported products according to exchange rate changes. In order to stabilize prices in Xiangjiang, they have paid a lot for Hengyu Supermarket Group and Watsons.

Their Hengyu Supermarket Group is better, at least they have support from other regions. Now Watsons is basically the Xiangjiang market, and there is no other regional market to give them blood transfusions here. It can only be Hutchison Whampoa headquarters to fill the hole.

Fortunately, their two major supermarkets stocked up a large amount of products in advance, so that they did not suffer major losses during this round of crisis, and also stabilized the price of Xiangjiang, which did not cause confusion in this regard, which beneficially increased the market value of the two major supermarkets. The prestige among the citizens of Xiangjiang is more beneficial than harmful to them.

This crisis made Carrefour and Wal-Mart choose to withdraw. They have truly stabilized the market in Xiangjiang. When they compete with these two supermarkets in the future, they no longer have to worry about the market where their headquarters are located being captured by the other party.

Li Xuelan said: "Li Sheng, after this price adjustment is completed, I plan to go to Pengcheng in person to express my gratitude to Pengcheng Fresh Agricultural Products Import and Export Trading Company. At the same time, our group has calculated the loss of their support for us this time. I It will also be donated to the Pengcheng government for infrastructure construction, which is a total of 2325 million Hong Kong dollars these days."

Li Xuelan's visit in person this time also shows Hengyu Supermarket Group's respect for the support given by the mainland. This time it had nothing to do with Pengcheng Fresh Agricultural Products Import and Export Trading Company, but the mainland executives, Guangdong Province executives, and Pengcheng executives In order to maintain the stability of prices in Xiangjiang, let the company supply them at the price before the exchange rate change, and their group has to accept this obligation.

After hearing this, Li Guangyu said: "In this way, the group will take out another part of the funds, make up 3000 million Hong Kong dollars, and donate it to the Pengcheng government in the form of integers, so that they can better equip infrastructure, improve the investment environment, and promote Pengcheng. Better development of the urban area.”

Afterwards, Li Guangyu and Li Xuelan talked about the issue of store acquisition. Li Guangyu had already communicated with the helmsmen of several major groups in the morning, and they asked Li Xuelan to arrange personnel to go over to meet them.

Anyway, Li Guangyu paid them in cash, and they would just buy some properties at that time. The Li consortium bought them at a 5% premium, and it was considered as labor costs for their resale. There was no need for them to cause Li Guangyu's displeasure in this regard.

Li Xuelan is very happy about this, so that he owns all the stores under Hengyu Supermarket Group, no matter whether the property market goes up or down, it will not affect the operation of Hengyu Supermarket Group.

And this will also be a sharp weapon for Hengyu Supermarket Group to compete with other supermarket groups. When necessary, Hengyu Supermarket Group can engage in price wars with each other regardless of store costs.

Li Xuelan said: "Sheng Li, after I go back, I will arrange personnel to communicate with them and try to make all our store properties in Xiangjiang belong to our Hengyu Supermarket Group within a week."

Li Guangyu once again urged Li Xuelan to strengthen the construction of logistics. At present, Hengyu Supermarket Group is expanding rapidly in Japan, South Korea, Baodao, Xiangjiang and Southeast Asia, which has very high requirements for logistics. The timely transportation of freight is related to whether each supermarket can Normal business.

Moreover, Li Guangyu is well aware of the brilliance of e-commerce in the future, so why would he not step in? At that time, he will have his own logistics company as support and various supermarkets as warehouses, allowing him to seize the opportunity.

Li Xuelan doesn't know Li Guangyu's future plans, but she is also very aware of the importance of logistics, especially for some products that cannot be stored for a long time, such as fresh agricultural products, which requires the support of a strong logistics team to ensure that all major supermarkets supply.

Now not only its Xiangjiang Supermarket is operating fresh agricultural products, but supermarkets in other regions are also operating in this area, which puts forward higher requirements for the group's logistics.

In this regard, Bentley Group is also manufacturing vans for the supermarket group to facilitate the transportation of some products by the supermarket group.

Li Xuelan said: "Sheng Li, our group has strengthened its logistics company. This time, our supermarket will spend another 20 billion Hong Kong dollars on the logistics company to build our logistics centers in some major cities and strengthen our logistics layout. At the same time, our group also cooperates with Wheelock Shipping Company to realize land-sea combined transportation to ensure the transportation of our group's products."

Regarding the construction of the logistics center, the cost is not too high at present, and it is mainly built in several central cities, so the investment is not too huge.

After the rise of e-commerce in the future, the demand for logistics will soar sharply. At that time, it will be necessary to establish logistics centers in various cities, and the investment will be huge.

Hengyu Supermarket Group is now slowly laying out and building. When e-commerce rises, the logistics company under Hengyu Supermarket Group has almost completed the layout in this regard.

At present, it is mainly sea-land combined transport. In the future, Xiangjiang Air Transport Group will also have a freight company. In terms of logistics, the Lee Consortium will be able to combine sea, land and air to serve customers by category.

After Li Xuelan left Li Guangyu's office, she immediately notified the senior management of the group to attend the meeting, made arrangements for the acquisition of Xiangjiang stores, and asked the acquisition team to make reasonable arrangements to complete the acquisition of all stores of Xiangjiang Hengyu Supermarket Group within a week.

At the same time, Li Xuelan asked the Finance Department and the Purchasing Department to adjust the prices of imported products. The time is three days. Citizens explain.

Li Xuelan said to the chairman of the logistics company: "Our headquarters will transfer 20 billion Hong Kong dollars to your company's account. While you are using it to increase the number of transport vehicles, you will also use it in Seoul, Tokyo, Taoyuan, Xiangjiang, Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Bangkok, Jakarta and The establishment of a logistics center in Metro Manila will improve the logistics layout of our group."

Their logistics center this time does not need a prosperous location, just in the suburbs, so the land price will not be too high, and a budget of [-] million Hong Kong dollars for a region should be enough for the establishment of a logistics center.

If it is not enough in the later stage, she will apply to Li Guangyu to continue to inject capital into the logistics company at that time. Hengyu Supermarket Group currently has no shortage of funds.
