Xiangyang market supervision department responded to the problem of high vegetable prices.

During the epidemic, the stable relationship of "food basket" affects the nerves of many departments. Recently, some netizens commented that the price of "mobile vegetable basket" in our city is too high and some of them are of poor quality. After the commercial department of our city implemented the "mobile vegetable basket" measure, the market supervision bureau of our city followed closely and formulated the "Code of Conduct for the Price of Mobile Vegetable Basket during the Epidemic Prevention and Control in Xiangyang City" to protect consumers' rights and interests in many ways.

According to a special investigation by the market supervision department, the price of "mobile vegetable basket" during the epidemic in our city is indeed slightly higher than usual for various reasons.

Increased transportation costs

Affected by the epidemic, freight vehicles and purchasers in our city can hardly leave Hubei Province, so they can only ask local vehicles and drivers to transport vegetables.

Taking Good Neighbor Supermarket as an example, the person in charge provided a set of data: in the past, it was 2,800-3,000 yuan to transport vegetables from Liaocheng, Shandong Province to Xiangyang, but now it is 4,000 yuan; Shandong Shouguang to Xiangyang freight used to be 3500 yuan, but now it is 5500 yuan; From Yunnan to Xiangyang, it used to be 8500, but now it is 20000. Freight drivers will be quarantined 14 days after returning to the local area before they can go home and reunite with their families. Due to the long distance and high freight rate, foreign vehicles are unwilling and afraid to enter Hubei, which leads to the increase in the purchase cost of our city.

Labor costs have increased substantially.

Good neighbors, supermarkets in Wu Shang and warehouses in Zhong Bai all report that the actual sales staff is only two-thirds of the usual level. It is difficult for a few supermarkets to recruit salespeople with three times the usual salary, which leads to a significant increase in the labor costs of these vegetable varieties.

The loss of vegetables is great.

In order to improve the appearance of goods, we should sort, unpack, freeze, peel and thresh the ice cubes, and the loss rate of leafy vegetables is above 15%.

Poor purchase channels

A few operators who have just started to engage in the "mobile vegetable basket" business have poor purchase channels and small purchases, so the purchase price itself is higher than that of supermarkets. In addition, it is necessary to hire workers to deliver goods to your door, which increases the labor cost of delivery.

Point-to-point sending price violation reminder SMS

On June 5438+09, the operator of "mobile vegetable basket" received a short message from Xiangyang Municipal Market Supervision Bureau: "The operator consciously regulates the price behavior, releases the commodity price information in time, clearly marks the price, and shall not force consumption or sale of fake and inferior commodities or bid up the price. For operators who violate the above provisions, the market supervision department will seriously investigate and deal with them according to law. If the circumstances are serious, the business department will be notified to cancel the qualification of "mobile vegetable basket". "

For the citizens, the price of "mobile vegetable basket" in our city is too high, and the quality of some cases is poor. The Municipal Market Supervision Bureau launched an investigation and law enforcement around the complaint clues, and found that the fixed-point mobile vegetable basket operators implemented the policy well, and the vegetable delivery price was basically the same as that of the citizens buying in physical stores.

In view of the high price of vegetables reflected by complaints, the market supervision department of our city actively takes effective measures to ensure the supply and stability of prices through daily price monitoring and cost analysis and comparison of vegetables, grain, oil, fruits and other living materials in the city.

In addition to the "mobile shopping basket" merchants designated by the commercial department of our city, many communities and residents have also contacted some business households to establish WeChat groups and buy food independently. Among them, many citizens have reported that the business owners of these WeChat groups have problems such as minimum consumption and short weight.

The supervisor joined the WeChat group to buy food in the community.

"We used to mediate a case. The lowest price of fresh vegetables in a supermarket contacted by fancheng district Military Industry Community is 100 yuan. Later, after coordination, it fell to 55 yuan, and the residents said it was acceptable. " The relevant person in charge of the Municipal Market Supervision Bureau said. In order to find the problem in time, the staff of the market supervision department will take the initiative to add it when they see the WeChat group. If they find violations, they will remind business owners to make rectification.
