Some soy saucers sell at prices below cost
Mr. Guo, who runs a condiment factory in Chengyang, told reporters that “I went to several factories to do research before confectioning. I would like to see what kind of processing is done in other factories, and how can we reduce costs. I sent a worker to a soy sauce factory in Jiaozhou. When he came back, he told me that the price of soy sauce was particularly low. If the sales at their price were almost without profit, they would even have to pay a loss.
"The price of the soy sauce produced at this soy sauce factory is almost twice as low as that of a normal soy sauce factory. Even if someone sells 3 yuan of soy sauce, they only sell 5 cents. And such a price is placed in a large soy sauce factory and may even The cost is not enough. In the end why their prices can be so low, even lower than the cost price, I have been wondering how this soy sauce is produced in the end?"
“At such a low price, I doubt that there will be no brewing shop. If it is fermented, the cost is still relatively high. Only the sauce that comes out of it can control the price so low, and the soy sauce processing plant that comes out is also simple. The key is to The speed is extremely fast. It is no problem to exchange a few thousand bottles a day. Therefore, they are low in cost and produce high profits. They still dare to do low profits."
"Soy sauce is mainly brewed, and people eat it is also the taste of the kind of brewed, but these small factories for the sake of brilliance, ignore the production process. These soy sauce is mainly concentrated in some small hotels, small restaurants. This soy sauce is also particularly popular with these places. Without brewing, but adding a lot of amino acids, these soy sauce taste more concentrated, but people eat it can cause cancer."
â—Ž Unannounced visits to the factory
This soy sauce factory is like a waste recycling station
On the 15th, the reporter went to Li Gezhuang Town, east of Jiaozhou, and found the soy sauce factory. This factory is located in the east of the village, some hidden. The reporter saw at the gate of the factory that there were numerous kinds of textile debris, large and small piles occupying a lot of places.
At the time of entering the factory, the reporter chose 12 o'clock noon. At this time, the workers were not there. There was almost no factory. When the reporter walked into the factory, he saw three rows of bungalows, of which two rows of bungalows were almost full of used bottles. The number was surprisingly large. It seems that this factory is not like a soy sauce factory, but rather like a waste product acquisition. station.
There are caps on the floor, and the bottles are peeled off by the bottles in the processing plant.
These bottles are different, some are soy sauce, vinegar bottles, some are small bottles of scented bottles, and even many are beer bottles. The reporter saw in a workshop that the bottles were scattered in this workshop and all the trademarks were torn off.
What are these bottles for? The reporter had a question.
A middle-aged woman saw the reporter and called the reporter into an office. There was a middle-aged man in the room. He was the owner of the factory. I learned that the reporter came to inspect the factory and hopes to cooperate with the purchase. The boss is more enthusiastic, but the boss is very vigilant to look up and down the reporter, constantly ask the reporter a variety of questions and keep asking how it was found here. Be careful.
Speaking of the situation of soy sauce, the proprietress told reporters that if it is more than the price, their soy sauce is the most advantage, and it is particularly cheap. She said, “Soy sauce is in glass bottles, some are in plastic bottles, some high-end soy sauce is almost plastic bottles, but the cost of plastic bottles is higher, the price of a single bottle is about a second, soy sauce costs There will be a lot of fluctuations in the market. Generally, in the supermarkets, many people like to buy this type of plastic bottle, which is easy to carry. The soy sauce in such bottles can also be used to raise the grade and increase the price. In fact, the same quality of soy sauce is not the same. Bottles, change packaging, prices can be increased more than three times."
"Most of us use glass bottles. A glass bottle costs only two cents. Soy sauce can be sold, and the cost is low and there are advantages."
The reporter asked why she put so many glass bottles in her yard. Is it recycling used bottles? She told reporters with a smile. “It is recycled, but it is not for sale. We use it for ourselves. Now that the condiment factory is not doing too well, the high-end brand has become deeply rooted in people's minds and can't do it anymore. We can only take the low-end route. Reducing the cost is the only way to go. Recycling these glass bottles and handling them with soy sauce and sticking to our trademark can be used."
“The production of soy sauce is very fast. One by one to fill in the inside, and sometimes in order to catch up, we need a lot of old bottles. We have recovered a lot. According to these different types of bottles, we have also separated several different varieties. The bottle is filled with good quality soy sauce and the big bottle is filled with normal soy sauce.
â—ŽAbout the brand
Trademarks are posted casually
The boss of the factory told reporters: “What kind of stickers we have on the side of our brand will be available. What brand of soy sauce do you want and how much soy sauce you want? We can provide it.†The reporter saw at the factory’s office. There are many “samples†placed on the desk in a messy manner for journalists to choose. Similar to the soy sauce condiment bottles such as “smart wife†and “very deliciousâ€, “If the bottle and soy sauce on this side do not meet your needs, we will Can be ordered."
The boss looks very anxious and has a self-confident appearance, which makes the reporter absolutely assured that he must meet the requirements.
The reporter said to supply the hotel needs more than ten pounds of barreled soy sauce, and the boss also said that there is no problem with the chest, including plastic buckets containing soy sauce and various types of labels can be obtained from their own channels. When the reporter asked about where to buy the barrel, the boss of the soy sauce factory smiled and evaded the reporter’s reply. He only said “Can definitely get it†and said no more.
The reporter also saw many unused labels on the table. "These are the labels we have used. Some of them are their own brands, but they are not used now. Now the main thing they use is the brand given by their friends."
According to the boss, one of his friends had originally made soy sauce and registered a brand. Now that his friend's factory has closed down, he uses it. The boss said: "If you need some famous soy sauce brands, we can follow the map you give and let others design one out and wipe the ball. Now many don't like that," he said frankly. "No matter which brand of soy sauce, In fact, they are all the same, but the bottles are different and the labels are not the same."
â—ŽAbout price
The secret of cheap prices is the speed of production
When the reporter asked about the specific price, the owner said: "Different soy sauce is not the same price, but mainly based on the bottle of soy sauce." He said that the general plastic bottles are expensive, some are nine cents Some of them are more than one, depending on the price of the bottle. "For example, if the bottles are two pounds, the bottles will have to be bought in one piece. Plus the label, plus the labor, we only get two or three dollars. If the quantity is small, It doesn’t make any money at all.â€
A small workshop that wins by volume can reach an average of tons of shipments per day. In the past two days, the owner of the soy sauce factory was in a hurry. “The goods to Weihai cannot be transported. The snow on the other side is too big. When trucks have more than 100 miles of freeways on the highway, they have to leave. High speed, it can not transport the past." Foreign sales due to the sudden drop in the weather, but also the owner of the soy sauce eager to reporters to sell soy sauce at low prices.
On the whole, the reporter had to go back and forth between the purchase prices of Laixi and Jiaozhou soy sauce factories. The soy sauce factory in Jiaozhou could be sold at less than half the average price of his peers. Where is his cost reduced compared to his peers? Do they have any tricks to reduce costs? From the point of view of workers’ wages, the average monthly wages of several factories surveyed by the reporter are around RMB 1,200. The gap between them is not large; the transportation costs and the cost of plastic bottles are similar. The problem may lie in the problem. Soy sauce production process.
The reporter did not see the existence of a large amount of raw materials in the factory area and workshop. For the reporter’s question about “hair soy sauceâ€, the factory boss repeatedly waved his hand and claimed that it was absolutely impossible to use the hair to process soy sauce. He just said that he prepared soy sauce fast, followed by The traditional process to wait for five or six months is different. The reporter asked to enter the fermentation workshop to look at the production process of soy sauce, but was rejected by the boss.
â—ŽEnter the workshop
Workers say the old bottles filled with soy sauce with a flush
After the reporter gained trust, the factory owner finally agreed to bring the reporter to the processing workshop, but it was still “not necessaryâ€. The reporter first entered the filling workshop. At the door of the filling workshop, the reporter found that the glass bottles were basically filled here. The bundled white vinegar and soy sauce were placed on the open space without protection. Soy sauce filling workshops often emit stench, and some unwashed bottles are randomly placed on a simple production line. There are many labels of soy sauce and other condiments around the production line.
"What brought the soy sauce over?" the reporter asked.
"It is to use some big plastic buckets to get it from the next workshop and then fill it," said the factory owner. The reporter looked around and did not see too many plastic buckets. He only saw some white plastic buckets resembling gasoline, and there were some remaining soy sauce.
There is no disinfecting tool in the filling workshop, not even one of the water pipes. How these disused bottles are disinfected is not known to reporters, but according to factory workers, most of these recovered bottles are directly filled with tap water.
In addition to using the waste beer bottles to directly fill soy sauce, the reporter also learned about another soy sauce factory. After coming out of the filling workshop, the reporter went to the warehouse and the fuel room. The yard was full of scraps of old cloth, plastic and leather. What these things are used for, why are they piled higher than the factory buildings, where did they come from?
According to the survey, many manufacturers in Jiaozhou are working on hats and shoes. Many processing plants produce large amounts of old fabrics and leather leftovers that cannot be processed. The owners of some factories see the profits from there. These scraps are purchased and sold to some factories as fuel. In addition to fuel, some companies may also use them for other processing steps.
Workers of the soy sauce factory also told reporters: “These are collected from some shoe factories and used to make fuel. Usually we burn these old fabrics and leather.†The reporter saw in a nearby fuel house. Deep black smoke came out of a tall chimney. Soy sauce factory will not take these leather scrap into the production process, the reporter tried to enter the factory's "fermentation workshop" to investigate, but was rejected by the factory owner.
â—Ž Trying soy sauce
It smells good and tastes nothing
After the reporter visited the workshop, he returned to the office. On the way back to the office on the factory floor, the reporter saw a lot of open concrete pools with white, hairy round objects. What is this? When the reporter took a look at it, the cement pool was covered with ash, and all the white round objects were floating radishes. “Our factory has not only soy sauce, vinegar, cooking wine, but also various Pickled pickles.†The boss told reporters.
"Why not cover up, prevent dust or something?" The reporter asked. "If you are pickles, there are those who pay attention to it. People pickle plants are basically doing this. They are poured into the pool and marinated on the line."
The water in the concrete pool had turned black, and it was close to the smell. The disgusting odor in the pool had caused the reporter to frown and the factory owner quickly guided the reporter back to the office. Back at the office, the factory owners began to push their own soy sauce. "Our methods are different from those of other manufacturers, and they all have unique secrets."
After that, the factory owner picked up the next sauce and tasted it in the glass bottle. Then he handed it over to the reporter to taste it. “Absolutely no problem.†The reporter took the soy sauce bottle and saw that the factory owner was watching, but could only taste In one sip, I almost thought that the scene in the factory had just spit out. The reporter felt that compared with the soy sauce produced by some regular manufacturers, the soy sauce of the factory smelled great, but it tasted nothing.
Is this a soy sauce factory or a waste recycling station? On December 15, when the reporter came to a soy sauce factory in Ligezhuang Town, Jiaozhou, he even made such a sigh. The entire factory was filled with rags and a variety of used bottles, even beer bottles. The proprietress told reporters that these bottles are used to hold soy sauce. Different types of bottles, washed with water, become different kinds of products in their factories. There are three or four brands of trademarks on the factory's desk. Beer bottle removed the trademark, soy sauce filling became a soy sauce bottle...
