Rebirth of the Legend of the Female Chef

Chapter 83 Challenges and Opportunities

Su Yao's culinary career is getting smoother and smoother on the road of innovation, but new challenges are also coming one after another.

With the changes in the global economic situation, raw material prices have fluctuated greatly, bringing tremendous pressure on companies' cost control.

"Su Yao, the price of food ingredients has risen too much recently, and our profit margin has been severely compressed." The financial manager said worriedly.

Su Yao frowned and thought about how to deal with it: "We can't just sit there and wait for death. We have to find a more stable supply channel or develop some new dishes that can replace expensive ingredients."

She personally led the purchasing team to search for high-quality and reasonably priced food suppliers. However, they encountered many difficulties in the process.

Some suppliers offer reasonable prices but the quality of their ingredients is substandard; others require long-term and demanding contracts.

"Su Yao, these suppliers are not ideal, what should we do?" The purchasing manager looked helpless.

Su Yao gritted her teeth: "keep looking, I don't believe I can't find the right one."

After some efforts, they finally reached a cooperation with an emerging agricultural cooperative and solved the problem of raw material supply.

But at the same time, market competition is becoming increasingly fierce. New catering brands have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, attracting a large number of consumers with their unique concepts and novel marketing methods.

"Su Yao, these new brands are coming in with great force, and our market share has been greatly impacted." The marketing manager said anxiously.

Su Yao decided to increase her efforts in brand promotion and marketing. She planned a series of large-scale food events and invited celebrities and internet celebrities to participate in an attempt to increase brand awareness.

However, the preparations for the event were not smooth. There were problems with venue rental, difficulty coordinating celebrity schedules, and demanding conditions for cooperation from influencers.

"Su Yao, the preparations for this event are full of obstacles and time is running out. Can we hold it on time?" the event planner asked worriedly.

Su Yao encouraged everyone: "Don't be discouraged, we will solve these problems one by one, and the event will definitely be a success."

Thanks to everyone's joint efforts, the food event was finally held as scheduled, and achieved good results, and the brand's influence was enhanced.

At this time, some problems also emerged within the company. Some old employees, due to heavy work pressure, became resistant to the new management model and work requirements.

"Su Yao, the employee turnover rate has increased recently, and the stability of the team has been affected." said the human resources manager.

Su Yao realized that it was necessary to pay attention to employees' welfare and career development in order to retain talent.

She organized several employee seminars to listen to everyone's voices and developed a series of employee incentive plans and training programs.

"We are a team. Only when we grow together can the company develop better." Su Yao said at the meeting.

While solving internal problems, Su Yao also keenly captured new opportunities. With the continuous advancement of technology, the takeaway and online food ordering markets have rapidly grown.

"We can't miss this opportunity and we must expand our online business as soon as possible." Su Yao said decisively.

But entering a new field is not easy. They need to build a new online platform, establish a delivery team, and cooperate with major food delivery platforms.

During this process, problems such as technical difficulties, delivery efficiency, and customer complaints emerged one after another.

"Su Yao, developing online business is much more difficult than we thought. Should we slow down?" asked the business development manager.

Su Yao shook her head: "No, we must face the difficulties, solve these problems as soon as possible, and seize market share."

After hard work, the online business gradually got on track, bringing new growth momentum to the company.

In this series of challenges and opportunities, Su Yao has always maintained firm beliefs and keen insights, leading the company forward courageously.
