The fruit shop especially tests the boss's eyes when purchasing goods. When buying citrus, it is useless to just taste it. Those experienced businessmen can know how the water is, whether it is sweet or not, and there are not many stones in it. On the other hand, bananas depend on their appearance, mainly whether they are crushed or not. It is said that mastering these skills is the key to making money by purchasing goods.
Among all kinds of fruits, common fruits such as apples and oranges have relatively small profits, while seasonal fruits such as mangoes, grapes and peaches have higher profits. When buying goods, we should pay special attention to the classification of varieties. Ordinary fruits account for about 70%, and seasonal fruits should account for 30%. The threshold of fruit management seems not high, but the scale of operation is far from it. Some are fruit stalls on the street, some are jointly operated with non-staple food stores, and some are fruit specialty stores. Every summer, there are fruit trucks on the street, which is equivalent to a mobile fruit stall.
Different scales naturally make different kinds of fruits. Generally, stalls mainly sell ordinary fruits such as apples and oranges, which have a long shelf life and are not easy to deteriorate; Non-staple food stores will increase seasonal fruits such as bananas, watermelons and grapefruit; There are many kinds of fruit specialty stores. In addition to ordinary fruits, large-scale ones will also sell some imported fruits. Smaller ones will also have higher-priced fruits, such as mangoes and cantaloupes. The mobile fruit stalls operated on trucks mainly make relatively large seasonal fruits, such as pineapple, grapefruit, watermelon and cantaloupe.
