Chapter 225
"It was provided by Huazhong Glass Factory. After our factory produced beverages, we have been cooperating with this glass factory." Liu Changping said, "This unit was originally a glass factory formed by two bottle production cooperatives, mainly producing various
A few years ago, a six-group rank bottle making machine was introduced, and later it also introduced eight-group double-drop determinant bottle making machine from the United States, Owens Ilinoyi Company.
The production line is quite strong.”
"Go and talk to them. The price of soda glass bottles provided to us must be reduced by one cent." Lu Hao said directly.
To squander, we just start from the cost, and there are two important costs for soda, one is packaging, that is, glass bottles, and the other is labor cost.
The labor is already very low, and if you save money, you can only start from the efficiency and purchase new equipment, but new equipment is often hundreds of thousands or even over one million, and many of the equipment are imported goods, which requires foreign exchange.
It is not something that can be solved by himself, nor is it a short time. We have to find Wang Guosheng and use Wang Guosheng's connections to import it from abroad.
It's hard to do this for the time being.
At present, the fastest way to save the way is to start with the glass bottle.
"A price of one cent? They probably won't be willing." Su Xingmin was a little worried, "This glass factory is very big and provides supply to many companies. There is no shortage of cooperative units. Even Director Wang went to discuss it personally.
Not able to succeed.”
Compressing the cost of materials can reduce their own production costs. Wang Guosheng, Liu Changping, and Su Xingmin had thought about it before and did it, but it died.
In the end, it was left alone.
Nowadays, most of the retail prices of soda on Jiangcheng are between 15 cents and 25 cents. The price of 2 cents is actually not expensive, it is just the average price.
With this idea in mind, Hongyuan Beverage Factory has never found a new glass factory later.
"Let's talk first. If it doesn't work, change the factory to cooperate." Lu Hao's attitude was very firm, "There won't be only one glass factory in Jiangcheng, right?"
"More than just a few more companies." Su Xingmin shook his head.
"That's it. Even if there is only one, we can go to nearby provinces and cities to talk to glass factories." Lu Hao said, "It is necessary to talk. Don't go to the Central Huazhong Glass Factory first. Go to other glass factories first.
It doesn’t matter if the private ones are, as long as the quality is up to standard, there should be still many glass factories willing to cooperate with us, and they can reduce as much as they can. After the negotiations, don’t rush to sign the contract. Go back and talk to the Huazhong Glass Factory.
Use the good price before to suppress the price of Huazhong Glass Factory. "
After all, I have always worked together and are familiar with the ways. If I can't change it, I won't change it, but if I can't lower the price, I won't be used to it.
With the economy liberalization, there is also competition in glass factories.
Liu Changping and Su Xingmin immediately understood what Lu Hao meant, and that he wanted to negotiate the price of one and reduce the price of another.
"Why are you suddenly so anxious? Did you hear any news? Or is it because Hong Erquan and others are making trouble?" Liu Changping asked.
Before, Lu Hao didn't talk about the glass bottle manufacturer. Today he suddenly mentioned that he had to lower the price and even switched the factory. There must be some reason.
"It has something to do with Hong Erquan, but it has little to do with it. He is just a fuse." Lu Hao said, "Now other factories on the market are starting to learn from us and hold 'Drink and Prizes' activities, including Beverage Factory 2 and Beverage Factory 3
We are all doing it, and our advantages will gradually become smaller. Moreover, just now, Hong Erquan, Wang Lixing and Zhang Mingyi came here to give gifts to Lin Jiacai and ask the municipal supply and marketing cooperative to order some soda from the three of them, but Lin Jiacai
Rejected."
"They said they could give up two points of profit. Although Lin Jiacai still refused, they would definitely go to find someone else, and someone would be willing to order soda from them at this price."
"This king and eight eggs, he is not a thing. The relationship between the municipal supply and marketing cooperatives is maintained. The reason why they order Hongyuan soda one after another is your credit.
Two points of profit." Su Xingmin cursed.
Hong Erquan did this inexplicably.
"It is really not a thing, but he is not so easy to dig through the city supply and marketing cooperatives. It is so easy to be dug over by him. I won't do the business of this beverage factory." Lu Hao was very confident.
If such a powerful person is really around you, stealing your business, and you will compete with yourself in the future, the best way is to change places quickly.
But obviously, Hong Erquan is obviously not qualified.
He went on to say, "But this is also a signal, and most of the other beverage mills will also have the same learning, so we have to work hard on the cost, try to reduce the cost as much as possible, and then deal with it."
There will definitely be a price war later, and he needs to prepare in advance.
At the last meeting, we had already agreed with Hongyuan Beverage Factory. Lu Hao was responsible for the cost. He only had to hand over the fixed profit to the beverage factory every month. Lu Hao saved it all
My own.
The beverage factory only looks at the results, that is, the profit you get.
Lu Hao not only needs results, but also process!
The backlog of soda is not counted, and half of it has been sold, and the price is not normal. In the case of the soda on the production line, the cost price is 0.11 yuan.
There is a 2-point difference in the middle, and this price is the net profit of Hongyuan Beverage Factory.
Last meeting, I also negotiated. Lu Hao's newly packaged soda, with a price of 2 points and each bottle, paid a fixed profit for Hongyuan Beverage Factory every month, and sold how many bottles were sold, and how many bottles were used to take 2 cents for 2 cents.
Passed to Hongyuan Beverage Factory.
The annual basic soda is 20 million bottles.
If he didn't get this number, he would also give Hongyuan Beverage Factory a net profit of 400,000 yuan. If he sold it, he would calculate it based on actual results.
The improved efficiency, the saved material costs, etc. are all considered by Lu Hao himself, but Lu Hao himself paid for the personnel bonus and equipment updates.
Hongyuan Beverage Factory can cooperate to find relationships and provide convenience.
No one objected to these minor details, and there was no reason to object to them at all.
"By the way, did the factory send things to employees during the Mid-Autumn Festival in previous years?" Lu Hao asked.
"In the past few years, when the situation in the factory was good, I still sent something, usually a little moon cake, and there was a pound of meat, there was nothing else." Liu Changping said, "In recent years, the situation is bad, there is nothing, and the moon cakes are not."
"Okay, this year, my four production lines have given employees holiday benefits, each employee has two kilograms of meat, a box of mooncakes, and another 5 kilograms of fruit." Lu Hao said.
His eyes narrowed, "Putting the news in advance, Hong Erquan didn't want to dig my corner, give gifts to the Lin Jiacai in front of me, and let Lin Jiacai book his soda.
I'll send something to everyone on the Mid-Autumn Festival to see if he follows him or not!”
Collect? Come on!
