Is it an opportunity or a crisis for a large number of Chinese shops in small supermarkets in Spain？

　　China Overseas Chinese Network July 27th According to the report of Spain’s Oulang. com, the Spanish Chinese 100-yuan store food stores are facing competition from a large number of small supermarkets, but at the same time, many Chinese have changed their careers and directly joined the chain operation to become the owners of small supermarkets. The large number of small supermarkets has attracted the attention of statistical agencies.

　　According to "american retail", there were 550 small supermarkets opened in Spain last year, most of which were small fast-selling supermarkets under big chain brands, such as Carrefour Express. This is closely related to the change of residents’ consumption habits. More and more people advocate fast, which provides a market for small supermarkets in residential areas.

　　"Spaniards are gradually giving up going to traditional markets and large supermarkets in the suburbs, but choosing online shopping or small supermarkets in residential areas." In the past ten years, this supermarket revolution has been replaced unconsciously. However, the origin of all the changes starts from 2009. From that year, the commercial law changed, it became easier to open a small convenience supermarket, and the government also encouraged the development of small commodity trade. In 2013, the People’s Party government at that time passed the Business Freedom Emergency Act, which once again contributed to the opening of such commercial supermarkets. Subsequently, chain operation rose rapidly, and in 2017, it began to enter a period of explosive growth.

　　Faced with this phenomenon, some analysts believe that small supermarkets are struggling to survive in the gap between large supermarkets and hundred-dollar stores, while others believe that this has brought crisis to Chinese hundred-dollar stores. At present, consumers are more and more interested in buying goods near their place of residence, which requires higher and higher speed of purchase. In addition, the requirements for quality have not decreased. Therefore, this is an excellent opportunity for small supermarkets. On the other hand, many small express supermarkets have become the pick-up points for online shopping and play an important role in the whole online shopping chain. (Xiaoxin)
