How do Re: crayfish sell so expensive? People say they can't afford to eat, and restaurants say they don't make money
"now the market price is still available, seven money to nine money heavy crayfish, before the May 1 holiday is 35 yuan / Jin, mainly because of the short period of goods; the output of these days increased, the average price dropped to 23 yuan / Jin. But do not see that now twenty yuan per catty, July and August is not necessarily what the situation. Fang Fang, who runs the Lobster Restaurant in Ji'nan, told reporters that the price of crayfish is more sensitive to the end of the supply chain. He said that the beginning of the beginning of April every year in the beginning of the season to eat crayfish, straight until October, of which July and August are the most popular season for crayfish business.
Ye Fangdi said, according to Ye Fangdi, many lobster farms in the south are now selling lobster in a "underwriting agreement" so that a person or a company can "manipulate" the market price of lobster, which is also an important reason why lobster has been in high position.
in Ji'nan's Kuang Shan aquatic poultry market, Lao Xing aquatic products is the largest wholesaler in the market. The owner said that it is still in the off-season. There are about one thousand jins of crayfish to Ji'nan and other provinces every day. After a period of time to the peak season, we can ship more than five tons a day. "The demand in Ji'nan is very small, many of which are wholesale from here to Beijing, Shanghai and other cities."
there are people in the industry believe that the three year price trend of the upper reaches of lobster is increasing year by year, and the price is seasonal fluctuation, the price is the lowest during the peak season of 6-7 months of the year, and the price goes to the peak during the light season during the spring and winter season, but this rule appeared abnormal in July last year, it should be on the crayfish Peak market and peak consumption season in July, because of scarce supply, prices skyrocketed.
shrimp prices over 50 yuan in Zibo restaurant has increased price
Ji'nan's crayfish prices are still relatively stable, but in Zibo, the prawns have begun to rise. Ms. Du, the head of a Lobster Restaurant in Zhangdian, said that last year, the price of a small lobster in the same period was 17 yuan per Jin, and the same size of lobster was seven or eight yuan per Jin this year. "The lobster quantity, taste and service have not changed, but because the lobster price is too high, we can only raise the price. "Now the lobster dishes in the shop are divided into small, medium and large prices. The small portion is 98 yuan /2 Jin, the middle part is 138 yuan /3 Jin, the large portion is 178 yuan /4 Jin."
"every day we purchase from the lobster farmers in Gaoqing County, Zibo, and we usually reserve 60 pounds of crayfish a day in advance. Ms. Du said: "this year the price rises very fiercely, the average per Jin is around 25 yuan, a little bigger price is above 30 yuan, the size of each jin can be sold to fifty or sixty yuan." The price of the prawns is too high. We don't think so. "
although the price of lobster is rising, the market demand is still large. In an aquaculture area of a farmer's market in Zibo, a small lobster middleman said, "100 Jin shrimps to early market at 5 o'clock every morning and all sold out at 7." Mr. Sun, who is also with him, is also a middleman. He said this year's crayfish business is not very good. "The highest purchase last year was not more than 20 yuan. This year, the price of 24 yuan / Jin is bought from the farmers and sold to the restaurant and aquatic products market at the price of 26 yuan / Jin. The profit of only one or two yuan per catty is much lower than that of last year. "
