Core Viewpoint - The rapid decline of Lele's first store in Shanghai, which opened only three months ago, raises concerns about its market adaptability and long-term viability in a competitive retail environment [1][3][11]. Group 1: Store Opening and Initial Strategy - Lele opened its first store in East China on January 3, 2025, in the Qingpu district, covering an area of 20,000 square meters and offering a wide range of products [1][3]. - The store was positioned as a "hard discount" warehouse supermarket, aiming to penetrate the first-tier city market and enhance national coverage [1][3]. - The strategic location was chosen due to Qingpu's role as a hub connecting the Yangtze River Delta, leveraging the former Carrefour site for its established traffic flow [3]. Group 2: Core Competitiveness - Lele's rapid growth is attributed to its "hard discount + efficiency revolution" model, with over 7,200 stores and annual sales exceeding 40 billion yuan by 2024 [7]. - The company has established strategic alliances with over 230 suppliers, enabling significant cost reductions through bulk purchasing and cash settlement [7]. - The dual-track strategy of penetrating county-level markets while expanding in urban areas has allowed Lele to cater to diverse consumer needs effectively [8].

当热度褪去，开业之初引发客流激增的学习胖东来自主调改店（以下简称"胖改店"）情况如何？近日，北京商报记者集中走访了北京市场已开业的3家永辉 调改店及1家物美调改店。无论在永辉还是物美，"胖改店"的客流已趋于平稳，难以再现开业时的拥挤及商品售罄状况。 "胖改店"更深层次的调整发生在供应链。采购环节去供应商化并不是简单地缩短流通环节，还意味着直接压缩品牌商利润空间，话语权也会被削弱。期间， 零供关系长久以来的平衡被打破，利润也将重新分配，这并非能一蹴而就。加之，胖东来高调透露帮扶给其带来了损失，学生们学成交卷的时候到了。 客流回落 开业即将半年，永辉在京首家"胖改店"已经逐渐趋于平静。北京商报记者于多个工作日走访永辉喜隆多店看到，目前，超市内的消费者相比开业之初明显减 少，消费者主要集中在熟食区、胖东来商品专区。而近6个月前的开业首日，进店的队伍在商场外绕了一圈又一圈，当天客流近5万人。 882 价格实在 4005 EGGVARIETIES A BO BADANGARIE SIEL- H IN THUNNER SARBORARED 最后在 SHARRE 8 1 p . 10 f 1441 119 ris CARD ...
