Chapter 722: Counterattack
"Mr. Parker, there is an important matter that needs to be reported to you in person. ”
Parker, the head of the Huaxia District, got out of the bed a little unhappily, he was really annoying, he had just finished this female subordinate, and he was going to have a happy afternoon.
"Alright, it's better that your business is really important, otherwise I'll be very upset!"
When he arrives at the company, Parker looks at the deputy in front of him and disturbs him to do something romantic, unforgivable!
"Mr. Parker, several of our suppliers in mainland China have now asked us to pay in cash, and the prices of several commodities have been increased by 3 percent. ”
"What do you say, what do you do!" Parker was furious, if the price was raised by three percent, their profits would drop, and the cash would be settled, and the pressure on their funds would be very great.
"Didn't we sign a contract before, are they going to break it? Tell them to abide by the spirit of the contract, or we'll see you in court!"
He must not allow this to happen, otherwise his position will definitely change and his bright future will come to an end.
"Mr. Parker, according to the contract, they have the right to ask for a price adjustment if there is a huge increase in their costs. It's just that they only target a few supermarket groups, and the prices of others have not been adjusted, or the adjustment is lower than ours. ”
"This is statistical data, you can look at it. There are several companies in this group that are related, and maybe someone is targeting us. ”
Parker looked at his subordinates: "Do you have evidence? Can't we defend our power through legal means?Who signed that dog~~~ contract in the first place?!"
The subordinate looked at Parker and said nothing. Parker suddenly fell silent, the contract, it seems that he drew up, in order to win the right to sell some in-demand goods as soon as possible, so that the supermarket can open faster and be more attractive.
It is said that the other party should not tear their face with them, their sales channel dare not say that it is particularly good, not bad, there is no reason to give up this sales channel, right?
Who is in business, who will have trouble with money?
Parker flipped through the information, his face turning pale. They are really treated differently, they are the top retailers in Europe, and they are among the top three in the world, so they can be targeted!
There are several brands in it, and they are also sold in their stores in other regions, do you want us to give them a global store to remove from the shelves?
However, he soon found that it seemed that some goods were not selling well in Europe, but they were selling well in China and even many parts of Southeast Asia, and they were very regional.
For example, Jianbao's carbonated drinks, such as good-tasting eight-treasure porridge, such as instant noodles, ham sausages or something, if their supermarket doesn't have it, it will give people a feeling of incomplete goods, what kind of supermarket is it?
"Mr. Parker, my guess is that this may be a counterattack by Patrons Trading. Baihui Trading was jointly targeted by us before, but two days ago, many supermarket companies that used to be in the same camp as us are no longer in contact with us, and it seems that they have invested in the camp of Baihui Trading. ”
"At that time, we united with some brands to balance Baihui Supermarket, and now this method is the same as the one we used at the beginning. And some brands that used to work with us have now given Baihui Supermarket the same conditions. ”
"Yesterday, two other supermarket companies were exposed to selling expired food, and there was a big fuss, and it was obvious that someone was behind it. ”
"What? Expired food? Is there such a situation in our supermarket, have you arranged for someone to check it strictly?"
"It's been arranged, it should be fine. Fortunately, we knew the news in advance, otherwise our reputation would have been seriously affected. ”
As the two were talking, the phone on Parker's desk rang, and they were both startled.
"Hey, what are you talking about? Didn't you arrange for you to check the expiring goods? Why did this situation still happen? Let the store manager find a way to suppress the matter and contact the political axe, even if he pays more money, he can't let this matter be exposed!"
Parker took two deep breaths and calmed his breath, how can the bad news come one after another? Expired food is a big deal in any supermarket, how do these people work!
"You go and talk to these brand suppliers right away, and we ask for the same conditions as other supermarkets. I also went to talk to Baihui Trading, we guarantee the same pricing on most of the goods, in order to reduce the head-on competition with them, the important thing now is development, there are so many markets to occupy, there is no need to make such a big fuss for a corner. ”
Since it happened, although Parker was angry, he also knew that the most important thing at this time was to deal with the matter, not to complain and divide the responsibility here.
Anyway, he is the person in charge of the Huaxia District, and as long as something happens here, he can't escape.
The company is paying more and more attention to the Chinese market and even the Asian market, and even intends to establish a purchasing center in China, and many Asian commodities are really high-quality and cheap.
In this way, the weight of the branch here in the head office will be higher, and his status will also rise, and there must be no accident at this time!
Even if the expansion of the new store is slow, the head office can accept it, but if the brand is smashed, the head office will definitely not spare him, even if he gives the president a very expensive gift.
"Mr. Parker, I've tried what you said before, but the other party refused. They say that all supermarkets have gone up by three percent, but other supermarkets have subsidies or have waived certain fees, while we don't. ”
"They also asked us to waive the pile fee, exempt the promotion fee, the time of product promotion, they set their own, let us not interfere, how is this possible!"
"Damn, they really aren't worried about us taking their merchandise off the shelves?" Parker furious.
"Mr. Parker, we only have six stores in Huaxia, including only two hypermarkets, and the sales volume is not very high, maybe they really don't care. ”
"We had other alliances before, but now we don't, I don't see any advantage for us. I suggest that we negotiate with them through the head office!"
Head office, head office, how simple it is.
If this kind of thing is known to the head office, will he still be able to sit in this position? The directors will think that he is not doing a good job, and the president will not be able to keep him.
By the way, you can also find other supermarket counterparts to cooperate, only they have a home mileage, and the other party doesn't care, but if there are dozens of stores, covering tens of millions of consumers, can they still care?
By the way, talk to Walmart, an old rival.
