Community group buying is booming, helping cherries sell well.

There are many kinds of cherries in the local market, which citizens can eat openly. As the main producing area of cherries, what is the export situation of cherries in Linyi this year? The reporter also visited.

Yishui County, as one of the six cherry producing areas in Linyi, has only a handful of cherry planting area and output, while Xiawei Town, as the main cherry producing area in Yishui County, is known as the weather vane of cherry industry.

As the chairman of the farmers' professional cooperative of agricultural and sideline products in Yishui county, Hu stays in the town every year during the listing of cherries, which is also his busiest time of the year. Speaking of cherry sales this year, he said that the popularity of "community group buying" has opened up a new way for cherry sales.

Hu introduced that cherry sales in previous years were mainly divided into online and offline modes. Offline sales are mainly carried out by cherry wholesalers and transported to the market, while online sales are carried out through e-commerce platforms such as Taobao, Pinduoduo, A auto Fast Consumer and Tik Tok. Farmers watch orders and pick fruits according to the demand of orders. From placing an order to receiving goods, it will be delivered within 48 hours at the latest in the country.

"Group buying in some urban communities is very popular this year, and cherries have also caught this ride!" Nonsense, different from previous years, the proportion of community group purchase orders is increasing this year. In Shanghai alone, there are more than 1000 bills every day.

How do fresh big cherries enter thousands of households through group purchase? This is a problem that everyone cares about. Hu also gave an explanation. It turns out that some express delivery has also been affected by the epidemic, and cherries, as fresh products, will inevitably be affected and even trapped on the road.

Community group buying has solved this problem well. In some cities, the community is currently using the mode of group purchase to distribute materials in the community, and Cherry is fortunate to be one of them. The person in charge of the community is connected with the supply chain, and the salesman of the supply chain enterprise is directly connected with the place of origin. According to the group purchase demand in the community, cherries picked by growers can be delivered directly to the cold chain car, and delivered in the community after arriving at the location, which is not only convenient and fast, but also has high accuracy, effectively solving the problem that express delivery cannot reach.
