    Because the ingredients used in the buffet are very ordinary, and a lot of the meat is synthetic, that's why it's so cheap.

    Because there are many varieties of buffets, it is absolutely impossible for one person to eat a lot of things, so the buffet is still profitable.

    I think it's because of the shrinkage in terms of service and ingredients, which is why it's so cheap.

    Buffets are very popular as a way for customers to eat and drink at will, and they have a high degree of freedom.

    At the same time, the cost of eating a buffet for one person is as little as ten yuan, and as much as a few dozen yuan, giving people a very cheap feeling. Because of this, buffets are even more popular.

    The reason why the buffet is so cheap is because of the following reasons:

    1. Small profits but quick turnover.

    The business model of buffet is to win by quantity to small profits and quick turnover.

    Under this business model, every customer eats in the store, and the profit obtained by the restaurant is not too high.

    It may seem like restaurants are losing money. ......In fact, this is not the case.

    The restaurant that operates the buffet follows the business model of winning by quantity. ......Although the profit of a single business is not high, the total profit is also very considerable because of the large number of customers.

    2. Low labor cost.

    Ordinary restaurants adopt a model where customers order, waiters deliver food, and provide related services.

    Such a business model requires the hiring of a lot of waiters, and the operating cost is relatively high.

    Buffets, on the other hand, are picked up by the customers themselves, and there is no need for a waiter to provide service.

    In this way, restaurants can save a lot of labor costs and increase profits.

    3. The cost of ingredients is low.

    Because buffet restaurants adopt a business model that wins by quantity, the amount of ingredients that restaurants need to purchase is very large.

    In this way, you can purchase goods at a relatively low level, reduce costs and increase profits.

    4. The uniqueness of the marketing method.

    The buffet is based on the consumption status of a single customer.

    In this way, the cost of the buffet is relatively low when calculated as a single person.

    For example, if you spend 20 yuan on a buffet for a person, you will feel very cheap. ......But if a dozen or so people go out to eat together, the total consumption will reach 200 yuan or more......In this way, you will find that the total amount of consumption together is not too low.

    The above reasons are the reasons why the buffet gives people the impression that it is cheap.

    1.The cost of ingredients is low.

    Generally, cafeterias have their own supply channels, and they go directly to the source to get the goods, so the cost of ingredients is relatively low, unlike when we go to buy vegetables and meat and fruits, and the price is more expensive. It has its own supply channels, so it is cheaper for restaurants to buy seafood or other meats. Moreover, the one-time purchase quantity is relatively large, and the supplier will give a greater discount.

    2.The quality of the ingredients is too poor.

    As mentioned earlier, one of the reasons for the cheap cafeteria is the low cost of ingredients, which may be fresh and normal ingredients, because the large quantity of purchase and the cost of long-term cooperation are lower. And the second reason is that the quality of the ingredients is too poor, so the purchase ** is also low, for example, all kinds of meat in the cafeteria, many of which are fake, all kinds of meatballs and bacon, beef and mutton rolls, etc., are fake meat, and the natural cost is low. There are also some self-service drinks and drinks in the restaurant, many of which are miscellaneous brands, which I have never heard of, or are mixed by the store itself, which is cheap and unpleasant.

    3.The guests don't eat much.

    I don't know if you've found out? Most of the more expensive foods in the cafeteria are raw, and the staff needs to cook them on the spot, such as freshly fried steaks, freshly grilled prawns, freshly made shrimp sliders, etc. Every time I get cooked, it can be said that the seconds are gone.

    The cooked food that can be eaten is very cheap, and the guests are not too expensive to eat. Therefore, customers don't have a chance to eat much of the expensive ingredients, and that's the clever thing about the store. Another point is that if you drink all kinds of drinks in the cafeteria, especially carbonated drinks, your stomach will already be swollen, and you can't eat much other food.

    Therefore, the store can't spread much money, and even if the buffet is cheap, there is still a lot of profit.

    1.The cafeteria has low rent and labor costs.

    The main cost of the cafeteria is the site rent, labor, ingredients, etc., usually the cafeteria area is larger, if you choose the first floor along the street, the rent is outrageously high, so the basic cafeteria is located on the second floor, the third floor and other areas, so that the rent cost can be greatly reduced.

    Secondly, labor cost is also the top priority, usually a restaurant chef on our side is 10,000 per month, and the sous chef is 7,000 per month, plus 1 cashier, 1 usher, and several waiters, and the estimated monthly labor cost is as high as 60,000 yuan.

    The staffing of the cafeteria is very simple, which can save the money of the chef and the sous chef, basically only need 3 4 side dishes, 3 4 waiters, 1 usher, 1 cashier, and the side dish staff is calculated according to 5000 months, and the rest is calculated according to 3500 months, and the estimated labor cost of the cafeteria is about 40,000.

    There is no need to wonder why the wages of employees are so low, because the employees of the cafeteria do not need to have the same service as Haidilao, they only need to do some simple work, and some bosses even recruit some temporary workers and summer workers, such as me, I will work as a temporary worker, 100 per day, including food, and the salary will be settled once a week, and the money will be deducted if there are complaints and work mistakes.

    2.The cost of ingredients in the cafeteria is low.

    Many friends go to the cafeteria and set themselves the goal of "eating back", but from my previous part-time work experience, only 10% of consumers eat back, on the one hand, everyone has limited food, and on the other hand, the cost of ingredients in the cafeteria is really low.

    Seafood: The cafeteria is generally in the form of joining, the head office will go to the venue to wholesale directly, and then distribute it uniformly, and the franchise store can also enjoy the "low price" discount, such as the general size of the pike crab to 30 yuan catty, but the head office goes to the origin of a large number of wholesale, it is only 3 6 yuan catty, it may still be a sick crab or just died.

    Another example is oysters, the origin is really cheap, even if the cafeteria takes the goods, it will not take a big one, basically small and medium-sized, there is not much money at all, as for other seafood.

    Meat: Many friends especially like to eat beef, mutton, feel that eating a pound is worth the trip, we have 40 pounds of raw beef, stewing will shrink, so the cafeteria is unlikely to really put out a large number of beef and mutton, many are mixed with duck and chicken, and then use special flavors to imitate the taste of beef and mutton, such as mutton powder.

    And the quality of these meats is not as good as the ones we buy in the vegetable farm, because the farm has a kind of meat called "buffet meat", if you meet a more black-hearted boss, some more garbage meat will be added to it, and the rest of the brain will make up for it.

    Vegetables: The quality of vegetables is actually okay, there is no big problem, and the restaurant purchases directly from farmers, which is also quite low.

    Drinks: Many friends think that drinking a few cups of "freshly squeezed juice" can also return a lot of money, in fact, these so-called juices are basically mixed with fruit powder, in order to increase the taste, some viscous agents will be added, trying to achieve the point of "fake and real".

    Because the buffet generally also comes with drinks, a variety of dishes and a variety of staple foods, these drinks alone can save a lot of money, and you can serve dishes according to your needs.

    When it comes to buffets, everyone's first impression is that they are cheap. Only a few dozen pieces are needed for each person. There are hundreds of varieties of vegetables in it alone. There are so many fruit drinks.

    The owner of a buffet. Even if you pull a tiger. You can't get back by eating meat alone. There are deep doorways in this industry.

    First of all, the owner of any cafeteria is not a philanthropist. They open a store mainly to make money, if they don't make money, who will invest millions to open this store?

    A buffet owner. A cafeteria of more than 500 square meters was opened in the urban area. Her net profit a year is more than 4 million.

    In the course of a chat. to understand the doorway of this industry.

    First, the cost is low. Everyone should know that. When we went to the buffet. It is generally on the second, third, fourth, or fifth floors, and rarely on the first floor.

    The first floor of the shop is definitely the most expensive. The higher, the cheaper. And my friend's cafeteria is on the fourth floor.

    The monthly rent is much, much cheaper than the first floor.

    The second is the cost of water and electricity. The cost of water and electricity is better, and the electricity bill of some shops is also about the same amount. The cost is about 10,000 yuan a month.

    The size of the dinner and the size of the hotel. The difference is significant. There are also a lot of savings in terms of staff.

    A cafeteria of more than 500 square meters requires a total of 18 employees. One reception, one reception. Five waiters.

    Cashier one. The rest are in the back cafeteria, and if you have vegetables, you need to hire one or two chefs. Some cafeterias have cooked dishes and need to hire one or two chefs.

    Second, all the ingredients eaten look particularly high-end, but they are actually very cheap.

    You have grilled meat, vegetables, and seafood. Seafood includes crabs, shrimps, scallops, etc.

    When many people see seafood, they think that a buffet of dozens of yuan will definitely pay off.

    But their seafood sources are cheap.

    Basically, they are all frozen products.

    Fruit is also available cheaply. You can't eat much of the fruit cuts, so you don't need a lot.

    So the water in this industry is very deep. There are a lot of things that are really difficult to explain. But some of the buffets to the ** are still good. Don't overeat when you eat a buffet. It can affect health.

    The reason why buffets are cheap is that there are not many people who eat in the first place, and every cafeteria does not allow waste. As long as you don't waste, the boss will not lose money, and eating the buffet is a specified time, you must leave when the time comes, it is impossible to let you eat full, take a break in the afternoon and then continue to eat, the buffet ** is reasonable and not expensive, so there are a lot of people who eat, of course, the boss makes money.

    Because most of the buffets are volume, although the profit is not so large, but the sales volume is high, and the total profit goes up.

    Why are buffets so cheap? In fact, it is that the guests feel that it is cheap. In fact, the cost of the buffet is very low, although a buffet thinks how much it is, but he basically can't eat so much, and he thinks that the boss makes money because of the cheapness.

    It's the same as if you have cooked, if you choose a little bit and choose a little, you won't be able to eat much and you will be full, especially the kind of boss with a smaller amount of food is more profitable.

    Due to the shrewdness of the buffet owner, he adopted a business economy with small profits and quick turnover, which led to a surge in popularity to make money.

    If you want to open a cafeteria, you must control the cost, ingredients and labor are one thing, and the location is also very important. The cafeteria must be opened in the commercial street or a large number of places, although the rent is more expensive, but the amount determines the popularity of the business, if the store is opened in a sparsely populated place, it will definitely lose its head. Second, cafeterias are generally not opened on the street or the first floor, most of them are opened on the second floor or higher floors, which will greatly reduce part of the rent, and merchants would rather spend on promotion than invest money in high rents.

    The cafeteria is very different from the traditional restaurant, the traditional restaurant needs the chef, the second chef, the lotus, the side dishes, the waiter, the cashier, etc., the chef's salary is 10,000-20,000 yuan, the second chef also has about 7,000 yuan, and the monthly labor cost of the general larger restaurant is more than 100,000 yuan. The staffing of the cafeteria is very simple, the things that are baked are ready-made, and it is enough to match a few more food deliverers in general, according to the salary of 3,500 yuan a month for the food server, ten is 35,000 yuan, plus the pastry chef and the chef who can cook the barbecue at most 60,000 yuan, and the master who does the dishes here does not need to be professional, basically the "second kitchen" can be done, so that the labor cost will save a lot, we seem to have a lot of labor in the cafeteria, in fact, it is much less than the labor of the restaurant of the same scale, In addition, customers bake their own shabu-shabu, and there is no need to have face-to-face contact with employees, so it also saves costs.
