At 12:00 on August 1st, a thousand sails in Lusigang, Jiangsu Province competed, and a basket of fresh "first net of open sea" pike crabs departed from here, and after further quality testing, selection and temporary breeding, they were transported to Shanghai by the cold chain in 6 hours at the earliest. Soon, users across the country will also buy fresh pike crabs with "teeth and claws" on Dingdong.
As the old saying goes, "I'd rather eat a bite of fresh than a thousand-headed beast". In order to make this "fresh", on the basis of the two major production areas of Dayang Port and Zhoushan in previous years, this year, Dingdong has also added three direct procurement bases in Cangnan, Wenzhou, Dongying, Shandong, and Zhanjiang, Guangdong, to ensure the supply of short links and improve the ability to keep medium and long links alive according to local conditions.
Wenzhou Cangnan direct mining base is located in the East China Sea, mainly covering Wenzhou and South China markets, the operation mode of the base is different from other bases, does not tie crabs on the boat, reduces a scorching sun sorting process, and improves the activity and freshness of pike crabs; Guangdong Zhanjiang is located in the South China Sea, the goods are directly supplied to the South China market, the link is short, and the quality is guaranteed; Located in the Yellow Bohai Sea, Shandong Dongying production area, located in Laizhou Bay, is the main supply terminal in the North China market. Huang Liang, the development of Dingdong vegetable and aquatic products, revealed that the sales of pike crabs will usher in a peak in early August, and it is expected to increase by more than 30% year-on-year
In addition to pike crabs, Dingdong has also opened up a special area for "dock dishes" this year, adding special small seafood from Taizhou, Ningbo, Zhoushan and other places, and the number of categories in the open sea season has increased by nearly 30% compared with last year. A single "Taizhou small seafood" is expected to have 15 types of special seafood such as tide, water murmuring, and plum boy, giving the public more fresh experience. Dingdong is also committed to broadening the product cooking scene, taking Taizhou small seafood as an example, the previous cooking methods were mostly based on thick oil red sauce, and Dingdong Shopping put forward the concept of "three beauties" this year, that is, fresh, fat, sweet, advocating raw choking, home burning, boiling, ginger soup and other practices, based on the combination of good ingredients + suitable seasonings + simple cooking methods, to increase the richness and layering of the taste of dishes.
On the basis of supplying domestic fresh goods, Dingtone also actively expands the global supply chain, and has developed global good products such as Canada snow crab, United Kingdom brown crab, Thailand black tiger shrimp, Antarctic silver cod, Barents Sea king crab, Argentina squid whisker, Atlantic cod, Greenland halibut, Arctic sweet shrimp, Iceland capelin, Norway mackerel and other global good goods to enrich the variety of fresh goods in Dingtone during the open sea season.
"Many seafood are cooperated with foreign fishing companies, and the source is locked in the form of charter flights and overseas customization, so that Dingdong users can experience seafood from all over the world at a more favorable price." Dingdong vegetable and aquatic product development Xu Jingming said.
