Chairman of Yuandong (Dalian) Group Co., Ltd
Sun Yongjin
Sun Yongjin once worked in the "iron rice bowl" unit in the eyes of outsiders, but stability is not what Sun Yongjin yearns for, and he wants to try more challenges. In 2002, Sun Yongjin started his own business and founded Xianghe Food, which was subsequently expanded to today's leading enterprise, Yuandong (Dalian) Group Co., Ltd. After more than ten years of business development, Yuandong Group is now a large-scale enterprise with 1,000 employees and an area of 30 acres. In the main business of campus meal business, the group's brand has been well-known throughout the country.
01
Promote intelligent transformation and upgrading with the construction of central kitchens
Contribute to the construction of a modern industrial system with advanced characteristics
In the era of rapid development of science and technology, the technological transformation and upgrading of traditional industries is an important part of the construction of a modern industrial system. In 2019, Yuandong Group began to select a site for the construction of a central kitchen, and in October 2022, the construction of the central kitchen, the only campus catering enterprise in Dalian, was completed, and the name of Yuandong was signed. The central kitchen covers an area of 20,000 square meters, with 200 monitoring devices, and uses AI technology to manage the work of personnel to ensure that the "bright kitchen and bright stove". At the same time, the information of the central kitchen can also be transmitted directly to the relevant government regulatory authorities.
02
Guided by food safety, we will promote green transformation and upgrading
Contribute to the construction of a modern industrial system with security
In Sun Yongjin's view, food safety is not only about food safety, but also about the freshness of ingredients. At present, cold chain logistics can not achieve full coverage of all regions, and many meats still rely on vehicle transportation in a room temperature environment, which inevitably reduces the freshness of meat. And if the transportation time of vegetables from the origin to the end is too long, it will also lead to insufficient freshness.
The standard of ingredient procurement of Yuandong Group is to find the source ingredients. Yuandong Group has successively cooperated with a number of rural cooperatives in the origin to purchase first-hand agricultural products to ensure the freshness of ingredients. In terms of food preservation, Yuandong Group will have professional and technical personnel to preserve the ingredients, and in terms of transportation, Yuandong has opened a through train from the place of origin to the central kitchen, which directly transports the ingredients to the central kitchen for processing into meals, reducing the problem of reducing the freshness of the ingredients caused by transportation.
03
Innovate and develop the field of prefabricated dishes, and promote integration, transformation and upgrading
Contribute to the construction of a modern industrial system with integrity
Conservatism and innovation, efficiency and safety, individuality and convenience, no matter how many contradictions about prefabricated dishes are discussed, this new force in the food industry has been integrated into the industry and into life. As a leading enterprise in the food industry, Yuandong Group has also started the research and development of prefabricated dishes.
The challenge for Sun Yongjin to develop prefabricated dishes does not come from technology, but from people's recognition and recognition of this new thing. Most people who resist pre-made dishes do so on the basis of safety and nutritional concerns. In fact, it is safe to add food additives in the production process of prefabricated dishes in accordance with national standards, and additives only play a role in improving the taste, color, and shelf life of dishes. In the process of developing prefabricated dishes, in addition to adhering to the national standards of food additives to maintain the health of dishes, Yuandong Group also constantly explores and adds new technologies to continuously upgrade the nutrition and deliciousness of dishes.
By continuously promoting intelligent, green and integrated transformation and upgrading, Yuandong (Dalian) Group Co., Ltd. has made remarkable achievements in building a modern industrial system. From the construction of central kitchens in the field of campus catering business, the promotion of green transformation and upgrading, to the innovative development of prefabricated dishes to promote the integrated transformation and upgrading, Yuandong Group has been adhering to the business philosophy of putting quality and safety first, providing delicious and healthy catering services for the people.
In the future development, Yuandong Group will continue to innovate and contribute more to the construction of a modern industrial system.
