The "closing tide" of tobacco hotels will continue, with small tobacco hotels accounting for the majority. what do you think?

Since the popularity of e-commerce, many people have joined the online shopping army. According to the Annual Development Report of 20021E-commerce, the online retail sales in China reached 91900 million yuan, an increase of over 18% year-on-year.

The report also shows that in the first three quarters of 20021,the number of e-commerce users in China reached 8120,000, an increase of nearly 30 million compared with the end of 2020.

This data clearly reflects the development of e-commerce industry. After the popularization of e-commerce, the market scale and employment in China have increased steadily, and physical stores are also under great pressure. Many physical stores have closed down in recent years.

Recently, another physical store industry has ushered in a "store closing tide", which is known as the tobacco and alcohol industry. You know, tobacco hotels were once called "lying down to make money". What happened now?

According to official data, in 2020, the overall expenditure of China residents in the tobacco and alcohol industry will increase, but the business of physical tobacco hotels is not good, which is the impact of the e-commerce industry.

In fact, with the continuous growth of residents' income level, people spend more and more in the tobacco and alcohol industry, but more income is taken away by e-commerce, while physical hotels do not enjoy this "bonus", but I don't know if you have found out that there used to be tobacco hotels in the streets, but now there are fewer and fewer.

For residents, the consumption of tobacco and alcohol is increasing, but the competitive pressure of the whole industry is much higher than this growth rate. There are competitive pressures from other physical stores nearby, and e-commerce "grabs business".

Some experts pointed out that in the next few years, the "closing tide" of China tobacco hotels will continue, and small tobacco hotels will account for the majority. what do you think? Now the industry is under great competitive pressure.

Many tobacco shops have embarked on the road of brand chain, trying to break through this transformation. Some practitioners said that due to the excessive competitive pressure in the industry, many businesses choose to reduce their own interests to retain customers.

Large-scale tobacco hotels still have certain advantages in the competition and strong anti-risk ability, but those small-scale tobacco hotels can't afford it at all, so they can only choose to close the store. Some experts predict that about 60% of smoking hotels are expected to close in the future, and the competition pressure in the industry is enormous.

In the future, as mentioned above, a large number of small and medium-sized tobacco and liquor hotels will be closed, and brand chain stores will become the mainstream. Now the price of tobacco and alcohol has risen a lot, but the profit of the whole tobacco and alcohol industry has not risen.

For consumers, with the closure of a large number of tobacco hotels in the future, it may not be so easy to buy cigarettes anytime and anywhere, and it may take a lot of roads. Are there many closed tobacco restaurants in your country?
