beijing news (reporter wang ping) the mid-autumn festival holiday is coming. on september 12, beijing news reporters learned from many old and well-known catering companies in beijing that many catering company managers summarized the characteristics of the beijing catering market during the mid-autumn festival holiday as stable, and it is expected that customer flow and revenue will be the same as the same period last year. some catering company managers also said that after the mid-autumn festival, the catering market may once again show a short "off-season", and companies will also speed up staff adjustment and food supply preparation during this period to welcome the national day golden week.
beijing news reporter learned from beijing jude huatian company's kaorouwan, hongbinlou, shaguoju, emei restaurant, liuquanju, quyuan restaurant, youyishun, laoxi'an restaurant and other time-honored restaurants that as of now, more than 80% of private rooms have been booked for the mid-autumn festival, mainly for family banquets, in addition to many gatherings with friends. kaorouwan's relevant person in charge told beijing news reporter that the earliest order for this year's mid-autumn festival was booked last year, and some old customers have booked mid-autumn banquets at kaorouwan for 10 years.
quyuan restaurant has recently seen a small peak in bookings. the relevant person in charge said that quyuan restaurant's signature dishes, tea oil and chopped pepper fish head and hometown roasted mandarin fish, have become popular choices for mid-autumn festival tables. according to statistics, the sales of various flavors of fish dishes on mid-autumn festival are expected to be about three times that of normal days.
zhang shengtao, operations director of beijing hu da restaurant, said in an interview with the beijing news that since september, hu da restaurant's customer flow has increased by 3% year-on-year, and revenue has decreased by 6.5%. he predicts that during the mid-autumn festival holiday, consumers will mainly travel to the suburbs of beijing or go home for reunion dinners. people are increasingly pursuing the ultimate cost-effectiveness and a relaxed and pleasant consumption scene, so the increase in customer flow in the restaurant will not be very obvious, and is expected to be the same as the same period last year.
zhang shengtao said that the store has already arranged for employees to take staggered vacations, and the purchase and stocking of ingredients has increased by about 30%. during the mid-autumn festival holiday, the store's signature dish, crayfish, is expected to have a daily sales volume of about 6,500 kilograms. "from the current situation, the demand for private rooms during the mid-autumn festival is still high. now the store starts queuing for numbers at around 4:30 pm, and the queues will continue until the early morning."
wang peixin, general manager of beijing cuihualou catering group, told the beijing news that currently, the private rooms of cuihualou stores are basically fully booked, and the catering enthusiasm during the mid-autumn festival may be the same as last year, or slightly "cooling down". "but after the mid-autumn festival, the catering market is likely to decline again. catering companies will also make preparations for the upcoming national day holiday, such as adjusting staff and stocking up on food."
