The control of headquarters is not strong enough, and the cost of breach of contract of single store is low.

Stores are closed, franchisees run away, Korean coffee brands continue to storm, exposing the problem of insufficient management control under the rapid growth of enterprise scale. According to RET Rui Yide's "Research report on the Development trend of Korean Coffee Shop in China", Korean coffee brands tend to join or co-operate as the main expansion mode, of which 10% of coffee accompany you and only 4% of zoo coffee. Wang Hongtao, director-general of the China chain Management Association, said that the joining model can achieve rapid expansion, but the operation risk is increased.

For example, if the coffee accompanies you and the zoo coffee adopts the single-store joining mode, the franchisee can operate a brand coffee shop with relatively high degree of freedom after paying the franchise fee, site selection audit and group training. A businessman of a start-up coffee brand told reporters that the operation of coffee shops often depends on the location of the storefront. under the pressure of rent, manpower and other costs, especially in the first two years of business, if there is no good operating efficiency, it is easy to deal a blow to the confidence of operators. Coffee shops with single stores have higher expectations for short-term profits, poor ability to bear losses, and lower default costs, which is also the reason why Korean coffee franchisees are frequently exposed to run away. In contrast, Pacific Coffee uses a single city exclusive agent, while Costa adopts a regional agency expansion model by "bundling" large enterprises, although it raises the entry threshold for partners, but gives the greatest protection to the brand image. It is understood that Pacific Coffee requires 10-15 stores per city, while Costa cooperates with Yueda Group and Hualian Group in the southern and northern markets.

It takes two years for the maintenance business to make a short-term profit.

There seems to be a contradiction between scale expansion and quality control in the chain industry, but raising the threshold for enterprises to join can reduce the risk of brand damage. For example, at the beginning of the opening of 7-11 in China, the conditions were almost harsh, and the franchisee could only take over the operation from the original "poor" stores, and the franchisee and helper needed full time. Although it deters some people, it reduces the operating risk and protects the brand image of the enterprise.

In the face of broad market prospects, there is nothing wrong with Korean coffee brands speeding up horse racing enclosures in China, but in the view of Ji Ming, the first president of the China Coffee Association, coffee shop operation has always been a slow process. He said that the franchise model of coffee chain brand promotion has led many people to see coffee shops as a tool to make money, but running a coffee shop is actually a process of training consumers to develop coffee drinking habits. It usually takes 2-3 years for a coffee shop to turn a profit from formal business, and operators need more patience to cultivate the market, rather than focusing on short-term profits.

This is also where many operators need to learn and recognize, not that joining a brand can quickly make a profit and get a lot of wealth, opening a coffee shop itself is a business that takes a long time to get back to capital, as investors need patience to work hard. In addition, choosing a responsible and promising brand is also an important reason for the success of the coffee shop. The above two points need investors to seriously consider and speculate.
