The price of pork remains high, what impact will this bring to the catering industry?

The recent rise in pork prices has always been an important topic of discussion. The first sentence everyone meets every day is "Did you eat pork today?" Of course, this is a joke, but the sharp and rapid rise in pork prices has really brought great influence to the daily life of citizens. In addition to the huge impact on the public, the catering industry has also been greatly impacted.

As a catering industry, there is a great demand for pork. It can be said that many dishes will have meat, such as braised lion's head, boiled pork slices, sweet and sour pork ribs, pot-wrapped meat, sweet and sour tenderloin and so on. And the price of meat dishes is generally higher. At present, the price of pork has risen sharply, which makes the catering industry very entangled and has been hovering between price increase and no price increase.

If the price of meat and vegetables increases with pork, it will inevitably reduce sales and lose many old customers and repeat customers. Although it will not affect the short-term benefits, it will directly affect the long-term benefits. If the price does not increase, then the meat and vegetables are basically in a state of slight loss, causing losses to the company.

Some hotels don't want to reduce the number of tourists because of price increases, and they don't want to lose revenue because of maintaining the original price, so there is a phenomenon of "short weight and short weight". In fact, this practice is not conducive to the long-term development of the hotel, because seemingly ingenious behavior will bring a bad reputation to the hotel. After word of mouth, the hotel will be difficult to operate. So I don't recommend reducing the amount of meat to cope with the rising price of pork.

Since the price increase of pork is a foregone conclusion, why not raise the price slightly when the hotel can make a small profit, which will neither cause losses to the company nor lose many tourists. After all, everyone knows the market of pork.
