Beijing's agricultural product supply changes in the epidemic: Beijing is still waiting for it except for the new place of hundreds of billions of transactions

  The new development market with an annual transaction value of over 100 billion yuan has already been deployed in the surrounding areas of Beijing, and Beijing has also begun to build another main supplier of agricultural products. This outbreak may be able to inject a catalyst into the layout of both sides.

  From June 13 to the present (July 2), the early storm center of this new wave of epidemic in Beijing-Xinfadi wholesale market has been suspended for 20 days. When will this Beijing "vegetable basket" reopen and how will it be after the epidemic Adjustments have drawn the attention of the outside world.

After being studied by the Standing Committee of the Beijing Municipal Committee, Fengtai District Commission for Discipline Inspection was instructed to interview the person in charge of the Xinfadi market; the relevant units were ordered to remove Zhang Yuelin as the general manager of the Xinfadi market.

  In order to meet the requirements of Beijing to ease the functions of non-capital cities, the new development market has already begun to lay out around Beijing, and Beijing has also begun to build another core supplier of agricultural products. This outbreak may be able to inject a catalyst into the industrial layout of both parties.

"Vegetable basket" and "fruit plate"

  According to Qixinbao's data, the Xinfadi Market is a collectively owned enterprise, established on September 27, 2002, with a registered capital of 28 million yuan. The promoter is Xinfadi Agriculture and Industry Joint Company, Fengtai District, Beijing, with a 100% investment. Xinfadi Agriculture, Industry and Commerce Joint Company was established in 1993 and is also a collectively owned enterprise.

  Xinfadi Market is located in Xinfadi Village, Huaxiang, Fengtai District, Beijing. On May 16, 1988, a simple farmer's market for the distribution and trading of primary agricultural products was established. This is the prototype of the new development market. This farmer's market occupies only 15 acres, has 15 management personnel, and a start-up capital of 150,000 yuan. Even the fence is surrounded by barbed wire.

  After 32 years of construction and development, the Xinfadi market has become the largest wholesale market for professional agricultural products in Beijing and even Asia, with more than 80% of the supply of agricultural products in Beijing.

New Development Market

  According to the official website of Xinfadi Market, the Xinfadi market is expanding rapidly. It currently covers an area of ​​1,680 mu, with 1,500 management staff, about 2,000 fixed stalls, more than 4,000 designated customers, 18,000 tons of vegetables per day, and 20,000 tons of fruits. There are more than 3,000 live pigs, more than 1500 sheep, more than 150 cows, and more than 1,500 tons of aquatic products.

  Qixinbao information shows that Xinfadi market holding or holding companies have moved from Beijing Xinfadi Enterprise Management Co., Ltd., Beijing Shiantian Trading Co., Ltd., and Beijing Xinfadi Agricultural Development Co., Ltd. to Zhongtudi Agricultural Development (Hainan ) Limited company with a total of 126 companies. There are 9 enterprises with absolute control and absolute control.

  Xinfadi Market also has many vegetable and fruit planting bases, freight companies, and urban retail outlets in its periphery. In addition, the surrounding communities such as Tianlun Jincheng, Xinfadi Jincheng Park, Century Centennial, and Tianjiao Junyuan also belong to the Xinfadi market, just like a small real estate kingdom.

  Relevant information shows that in the industrial layout of the Xinfadi market, Chairman Zhang Yuxi and some of his family members have held important positions in related companies.

  According to Qixinbao information, Zhang Yuxi served as an executive in 23 companies including Beijing Xinfadi International Agricultural Products Exhibition Center Co., Ltd., Beijing Xinfadi Agricultural Active Technology Development Co., Ltd., and Beijing Tianlun Jinyuan Vegetable Market Co., Ltd.

  Zhang Yuxi's son Zhang Yuelin in Beijing Xinfadi Agricultural Products Wholesale Market Center, Beijing Xinfadi Agricultural Products Co., Ltd., Beijing Xinfadi Agricultural Products E-commerce Center Co., Ltd., Beijing Xinfadi Agricultural Co., Ltd., Beijing Xinfadi Fruit and Vegetable Co., Ltd., Beijing Xinfadi Agricultural Development Co., Ltd., Beijing Xinfadi Vegetable Basket Distribution Co., Ltd. Haidian Branch, etc. act as legal persons or executives.

  In order to meet the requirements of Beijing to ease the functions of non-capital cities, in recent years, the Xinfadi Market has been planning to transform and upgrade in situ in Fengtai District of Beijing, and on the other hand, it has also carried out industrial layout in areas around Beijing such as Hebei.

  According to the public information of Xinfadi Market, in recent years, its business has been extended to production sources and retail terminals simultaneously. It has opened 12 sub-markets and more than 3 million mu of bases in Beijing and major agricultural production areas. It is also in Chifeng and Datong. , Zhaoyuan, Wuwei, Gaobeidian, Xiangyang, Mengcheng and other cities have established markets of origin.

  In 2013, Hebei Xinfadi Agricultural and Logistics Co., Ltd. laid the foundation stone. In October 2015, Hebei Xinfadi opened. In 2019, the Hebei Xinfadi Food Processing Industrial Park project with a total investment of more than 2 billion yuan will be started. Through the supply mode of "preliminary processing of origin, market precision processing, and net vegetables into Beijing", 1.8 million tons of net vegetables can be processed and distributed to Beijing every year.

  Wei Shujian, vice president of Hebei Xinfadi Group, told the media that Hebei Xinfadi has ushered in opportunities and understood the process of undertaking the functioning of Beijing's non-capital capital. For more than one kilometer, it will inevitably become the rear of the supply of agricultural products in the Xiong'an New District in the future."

In addition to the new location, Beijing is also building "another core"

  After the current epidemic in Beijing, trading in the newly issued market was suspended. Such a large-scale trading market cannot function normally. Will it affect the supply of agricultural products including vegetables in Beijing?

  After that, the gap in vegetable supply was quickly filled by other market players. Beijing designated multiple temporary trading venues to transfer vegetables and fruits originally traded in the Xinfadi wholesale market to designated areas for trading.

  On the one hand, the large-scale supermarket chains are directly harvested, and on the other hand, the vegetables listed on the wholesale markets such as Dayang Road, Yuegezhuang, Splendid Earth, Shuitun, Shunxin Shimen, Bali Bridge, etc. have increased exponentially. After a short period of volatile fluctuations, Beijing's vegetable prices have gradually stabilized.

  Over the past few years, Beijing has been planning and building a multi-nuclear mechanism for agricultural product supply. In addition to the new development site, in Beijing, there is another group with stronger strength, namely Beijing Shounong Food Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Shounong Group").

  According to Qixinbao's data, Shounong Group is Beijing's largest agricultural state-owned enterprise. It was reorganized from Beijing Sanyuan Group Co., Ltd., Beijing Huadu Group Co., Ltd., and Beijing Dafa Livestock Co., Ltd. in April 2009.

  According to public information, Shounong Group has total assets of 15 billion yuan, annual sales of 10 billion yuan, nearly 40,000 employees, 64 state-owned wholly-owned and holding companies, 25 Sino-foreign joint ventures, and 2 overseas companies. Among them, Beijing Sanyuan Food Co., Ltd. is a listed company.

  Shounong Group is mainly engaged in the production, processing, operation and sales of planting, aquaculture and food processing industries; animal slaughtering and processing, pig slaughtering; sales of edible agricultural products and so on. Its development goal is to become a "vegetable basket, rice bag, milk bottle, meat case" for the citizens of the capital.

  After the outbreak of this epidemic in Beijing, the Beijing Development and Reform Commission introduced on June 22 that the Municipal Development and Reform Commission and the Municipal Bureau of Commerce guided Shounong Group in accordance with the principle of marketization to increase the integration of agricultural and supermarkets, and quickly implemented transportation, storage and market launch.

  According to the reporter from First Financial, as early as a few years ago, Beijing emphasized that Shounong Group focused on building Beijing's fresh agricultural products distribution center to provide agricultural products for the central urban area and urban sub-centers of Beijing. After the completion of the center, it will form a "dual-core" supply pattern with the new development market in the southern part of the city to protect the "vegetable basket" of the citizens of the capital.

  The Beijing Fresh Agricultural Products Circulation Center Project is located in Heizhuanghu Township, Chaoyang District, covering an area of ​​305 acres, a construction area of ​​616,000 square meters, and a total investment of 8.7 billion yuan. The project was listed as the Beijing Municipal Government's fold project and the new rural construction fold project in 2012. It was included in the municipal government's key projects for 6 consecutive years from 2013 to 2017, and was listed as the municipal government's key task in 2020.

  According to the plan, the Beijing Fresh Agricultural Products Circulation Center project will be completed before the end of this year. After opening, it will form a "1+N" "one core and multiple points" with other wholesale node warehouses around the capital for 1 hour of fresh agricultural products circulation.
