Why Visit Kuaile Zhanggui?
Shanghai Kuaile Zhanggui is a regional FMCG B2b platform established in 2016. In just 8 years, it achieved annual sales of over 1 billion yuan in the Shanghai market through its unique business model.
Unlike traditional distributors, Kuaile Zhanggui adopted a completely new operational logic from the start, using digital means and outsourcing models to maximize product distribution coverage.
As of now, Kuaile Zhanggui's warehouse covers 12,000 square meters, with split-case picking, inventory turnover of 6.5 days; over 4,000 SKUs, 500+ brands, with 41% beverages, 24% alcohol, and 13% snacks, all managed by only 4 procurement staff.
On the front-end business, 100% online payment, 70% WeChat and 30% Alipay, with over 15,000 monthly active stores, zero credit period, cash on delivery, and no returns.
While the success of any model depends on organizational genes and external environmental factors, such as Shanghai being a high-density city with numerous stores, bringing economies of scale and lower per-store service costs,
the business philosophy behind Kuaile Zhanggui is highly worth learning for distributors: "Focus on the core business of product distribution, and use data to drive decisions."
Through full-process digitalization, outsourcing non-core business, optimizing SKU structure, strict payment policies, and efficient customer service, Kuaile Zhanggui effectively solves the common inefficiency problems of traditional distributors, achieving high efficiency and low-cost operations, and maintaining a cost leadership advantage in the regional market.
New Distribution hopes that through the Kuaile Zhanggui study tour case, distributors can broaden their horizons, gain more inspiration and thinking on B2b transformation, and help them avoid detours.
In the future, the「B2b Platform-based Distributor Deep Inspection Training Class」series will find more excellent distributor practice cases and continue to provide opportunities for distributor members to interact with peers and experts on-site.
