Yinchuan Ramen has increased its price

“Rising noodle prices again, 4.5 yuan for small bowls and 5 yuan for large bowls.” After the Spring Festival, the attentive citizens found that some beef noodle shops in Yinchuan raised the price of ramen again. Then, why do the prices of ramen noodles increase, and whether the relevant departments should supervise the price increase this year? With these doubts, yesterday, the reporter visited some of the Yanbian and the price departments of Yinchuan to investigate the cause and effect of the rise in the price of ramen.

Two price increases in half a year Before and after the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, Yinchuan part of the Ramen Museum raised the price of noodles by 0.50 yuan, the small bowl rose from 3.5 yuan to 4 yuan, and the big bowl rose from 4 yuan to 4.5 yuan. It was learned that at the time when prices were rising, the prices of rice flour and oil were rising. After some prices were raised by noodle restaurants, other ramen restaurants also responded. By the end of last year, no bowls of ramen had been eaten at Yinchuan's 3.5 yuan.

After the Spring Festival holiday this year, Yinchuan part of the noodle restaurant increased its price again. The reporter visited a number of ramen noodle restaurants in Yinchuan and found that they had put on new price cards. The small bowl of ramen rose to 4.5 yuan, and the big bowl rose to 5 yuan. The owner of the Ramen Restaurant stated that he planned to increase prices at the end of last year, but considering that the price increase would require a readjustment of the price tag and the computerized collection system, he took preparations during the Spring Festival holidays and could raise prices smoothly after the holiday.

Ramen Restaurant: The reason for the rise in price rises is slightly different from the reason for the rise in price of the ramen noodle last year. Many ramen restaurant owners stated that the increase in rent and employee wages is the main reason for the increase in prices; The rise in raw material prices for the first half of the year has also prompted the ramen to raise prices again.

Hong Kong catering company manager Chen told reporters that after the Spring Festival, the company's self-employed a noodle restaurant price increases, there are also part of the franchise price increases. From the beginning of last year to the present, the salary of ordinary employees has increased by a maximum of 500 yuan, and the salary of chefs has increased by 1,000 yuan. In the second half of last year, the rent for employee dormitories increased by 100 yuan per month; in addition to the rising prices of raw materials last year, the operating costs increased. With the increase in cost, restaurants can only choose to raise the price of ramen to ease the cost pressure. Manager Chen frankly stated that when he raised the price last year, he wanted to increase one yuan at a time, but considering the customer's ability to accept it, he had only increased by RMB 0.50.

The owner of a noodle shop on Xinhua Street told reporters that at the beginning of last year, the monthly salary of an ordinary worker was 1,000 yuan, and by the end of the year, the highest monthly salary of a small worker had got 1,500 yuan. The chef's wages rose to more than 3,000 yuan. Puma, a migrant worker from Guyuan County, told reporters that compared with other restaurants, working in the Noodle Museum was the most exhausting. Every morning at 6 o'clock, they had to work in a restaurant. It was a busy day. No one would be willing to do it. The boss said that a bag of flour sold for more than 60 yuan a year ago, has now risen to 90 yuan, coupled with rising vegetable prices, oil prices, coal prices and other raw material prices, have prompted the ramen to once again increase prices.

The price department: It is not illegal to adjust the price on its own Since the second half of last year, the government has adopted a series of price stabilization measures on price increases. So, does Yinchuan some ramen raise prices again, is it illegal?

In this regard, Yinchuan City, Director of Price Supervision and Inspection Bureau Yang said that the price of beef noodles is a market regulation price, and not subject to direct government price guidance and intervention. However, if the following two conditions occur, the price department will intervene in the supervision. If the price increase is a preemptive collusion between several noodle restaurant operators, it violates the relevant provisions of the Price Law; if the government initiates a temporary price intervention for the price of ramen, The measures can supervise the price increase of ramen.

Regarding the interpretation of the price department, some people questioned that since the second half of last year, the central government and local governments have adopted a variety of measures to stabilize prices. In our district, we have repeatedly raised the need to stabilize market prices. In these measures, it has been proposed to monitor in time. Changes in the prices of commodities that are closely related to the daily lives of ordinary people cannot be regulated by popular foods such as ramen.

Ramen will also increase prices?

At the beginning of this year, the price of ramen has risen. Will it continue to rise during the year? Some citizens said: “Depending on the rate of this price increase, the ramen will surely rise to 10 yuan in two years.”

For such concerns, business owners of ramen believe that as long as prices continue to rise, it is inevitable that the price of ramen will rise again. However, there are also different understanding of business households, a ramen restaurant owner admitted that the price of ramen is only part of the noodle restaurant.

The same raw materials of large households are operating in the same city, and the cost pressures are increasing. Why both price increases and non-price increases are the two options? The boss told reporters that, in fact, factors such as abandoning rent, employee wages and raw material prices, and increasing costs are not completely unacceptable for the noodle restaurant. Those who have worked in this industry know that opening ramen noodle shops is very hard, and as early as morning they are greedy and black, and business households are pursuing greater profit margins. The increase in costs does not mean that the business households have to lose money to do business, but it affects their profit margins. The business households are not willing to deprive the original profit space of the increased costs, so the pressure of increasing costs is passed on to consumers.
