Second, there are fundamental flaws in the profit structure. Raw-material costs have long remained above 85% of revenue, reaching 87.5% in the first three quarters of 2025—well above the industry average. This was compounded by a 63.7% surge in selling and marketing expenses in 2024 and a 20.1% increase in administrative expenses; cost growth far outpaced revenue growth, keeping gross margin under sustained pressure. Third, there is a perception gap between the flagship “freshly hand-wrapped” selling point and actual operations. The company uses centrally produced, frozen ingredients delivered from a central kitchen, with stores only wrapping on-site—something that does not match consumers’ understanding of “handmade throughout the entire process.” Controversy over pre-prepared food has further eroded trust in the brand. In addition, the company also faces compliance risks: in 2023, 21.6% of revenue was processed via third-party payment channels, and issues such as unpaid social insurance contributions and deficiencies in property filings remain to be addressed.
