- In addition to Emily's suggestion, another colleague also pointed out that in the fresh food sector, pricing plays a crucial role. Most customers are price-conscious, especially when it comes to common items like omelettes and pork. If the prices are higher than those of competitors, it may give customers the impression that everything in this store is pricier than elsewhere. With Jiajia's expansion, Huiyi and a few others reluctantly initiated a price war, focusing on competitive product pricing. Therefore, it is advisable to establish a dedicated price investigation team to regularly visit competitors' stores, as well as markets and supermarkets, and make timely adjustments based on their pricing. Additionally, the competitors' lower prices reflect their collaboration and negotiations with suppliers, necessitating the procurement department to follow up and negotiate with suppliers to secure the best purchasing prices. This ensures that competitors do not have a pricing advantage, and the company does not incur losses while gaining attention in this aspect.

A lively discussion ensued, highlighting many details, and Emily eventually formulated a comprehensive plan, which was handed over to the Operations Department and Marketing Department for implementation. Given Emily's extensive responsibilities, the food delivery platform and the customized organic vegetable business were delegated to the Operations Department for specific execution. The price survey team was to be formed by the Marketing Department, with the final survey results to be relayed to the Procurement Department for further action.
