In recent days, the chinese association of chain operators has published an index of the development of chinese urban convenience stores, 2024, which is the fifth consecutive year that xiamen has been the country's leader。
The “indicator for the development of urban convenience shops in china” has been surveyed and published for eight consecutive years since 2014. The survey covered 40 municipalities, including 26 provincial and capital cities, 4 municipalities directly under the central government, 4 separate municipalities under the programme and 6 other municipalities, and calculated the indicators for the development of urban convenience stores through multi-dimensional indicators such as the growth rate of municipal convenience stores, single store coverage of the population, the 24h index and the business environment. Among them, xiamen, changsha, taibara, dongjun and fukuzhou ranked among the top five。
Xiamen is at the top of the list of indicators for business facilitation. In recent years, the city of xiamen has introduced policies to promote retail growth, such as the " programme for the promotion of brand chains development in the city of xiamen " , " measures to further promote the development of fresh shops in the city of xiamen " , which support the multi-dimensional aspects of the opening and development of convenience shops and create a first-class business environment. The number of shops is growing rapidly, the business environment is good, and a good business environment makes xiamen a well-deserved “convenient shop paradise”。
According to statistics, of the population indicators for single-shop coverage, there are 3,248 persons/shops, the fifth largest in the country. In recent years, there has been rapid growth in a number of highly motivated businesses offering services for the well-being of the population, such as bok fu, the first month of the school year and the most popular local convenience stores. In the 24h scale indicator, xiamen is ranked second in the country at 76. 2 per cent, three times higher than last year, meaning that 76 of every 100 convenience stores operate 24 hours.
