Baiteng Street in Doumen, Zhuhai, Guangdong seizes the opportunity of "two cars heading north" to create a "fresh" destination for Hong Kong and Macao tourists
2024-07-31
As the largest seafood trading market in Zhuhai and the second largest in southern China, Baitengtou Aquatic Products Wholesale Market in Baiteng Street, Doumen District, Zhuhai City, Guangdong Province, is bustling with vehicles from Hong Kong and Macau. Since the implementation of the "Hong Kong Car Northbound" and "Australian Car Northbound" policies on July 1, 2023, Baiteng Street has coordinated various resources and carried out market software and hardware improvement projects, attracting many Hong Kong and Macao compatriots to come and check in for consumption. Over the past year, the number of Hong Kong and Macao vehicles entering the market has exceeded 150000, receiving more than 400000 tourists from Hong Kong and Macao. The annual market revenue has exceeded 6 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 20%. At the Baitengtou Aquatic Products Wholesale Market, we see people coming and going in front of seafood stalls, customers and vendors bargaining. Mr. Huang and Ms. He, who drove from Hong Kong to Zhuhai, specially came to Baitengtou Aquatic Products Wholesale Market to buy seafood. Ms. He said, "I heard from neighbors that Baitengtou's seafood market is very large, with many varieties and affordable prices, more than one-third cheaper than Hong Kong's prices. The seafood is also very fresh, and after buying, you can bring it to nearby restaurants for processing, enjoying the experience of buying and eating immediately, and eating the freshest taste. Our first time here, the overall experience was good." Hong Kong customers who went to Baitengtou Aquatic Products Wholesale Market said that in recent years, the environment here has changed a lot. During holidays, not only can you take your family to Zhuhai to see the beautiful scenery, but you can also eat affordable seafood at Baiteng in Doumen. The relevant person in charge of Baiteng Street stated that all the merchants who enter the market to sell seafood have signed a commitment to honest operation, which is also one of the reasons why it attracts diners. The street takes the lead in setting up the "Zero Mile Station" to provide one-stop services for tourists' shopping and consumption. It has established the first integrity management alliance for the aquatic industry in the province, attracting more than 220 members and jointly safeguarding the good reputation of the market. Not only that, by establishing a quality control specialist inspection team, we will severely crack down on illegal business practices such as market shortages and mixed selling. Different levels of violations will be punished with yellow cards or suspension of business for rectification. Those who seriously violate the rules will be given a yellow card for one month or be dismissed. The market has established an integrity management fund to evaluate and reward integrity management entities. With the continuous upgrading of market services and more refined management, stall owners clearly feel that their popularity is increasing. More and more customers are coming to buy seafood, both new and old, and they can buy with peace of mind and eat happily, "said one of the stall owners. Coming here for consumption is both worry free and reassuring, "Macau consumers admitted that the Baiteng Aquatic Products Wholesale Market is improving in terms of security, urban appearance, consumption, and supporting facilities. Baiteng Street has established a special team to strengthen the fine management of night markets, coordinate traffic police, urban management, market supervision, environmental sanitation, and community workers to do a good job in traffic maintenance, daily inspections, food safety, garbage removal, etc., to ensure that tourists can enjoy a comfortable stroll and eat with peace of mind. Previously, I heard that the internet celebrity 'Captain Yongkang' also went to the market to 'play ghost scales', but I did not find any issues with integrity management. Tourists have expressed that coming here for' eating, drinking, and entertainment 'is a very good choice. In addition to being able to buy with confidence, the purchasing experience is also gradually improving. It's very convenient to come from Hong Kong by taking the Hong Kong Zhuhai Macao Bridge now. The environment around the market is much better than before. It's difficult to find parking spaces here now. A dedicated parking lot has been set up, making it very convenient for families to come and eat seafood on weekends, "Mr. Li said. In order to better serve tourists and address the problem of parking difficulties in the market, Baiteng Street has revitalized two idle plots of land with a total area of nearly 12000 square meters around the market for the construction of a temporary parking lot, adding 310 new parking spaces. The market will re plan and design internal and external parking spaces, standardize the setting of vehicle entrances and exits, and separate passenger and freight areas in the original motor vehicle parking areas, focusing on solving problems such as disorderly parking and traffic congestion, and achieving overall optimization and improvement of market traffic and transaction order. Baiteng Street is also providing consumers with more diversified service-oriented consumption by enhancing the overall market atmosphere. Manager Lin of Baitengtou Aquatic Products Wholesale Market Management Co., Ltd. stated that the market is currently building Zhuhai's first seafood themed night market in stages. The first phase of the night market has recruited more than 50 merchants to settle in, covering an area of about 2000 square meters. "With the market and night market as the main body, we will work together with surrounding merchants to build a gathering area integrating aquatic products trading, catering, and night economy, and create the 'Baitengtou Fishing Fun Circle' IP." Centralized payment is implemented in the night market, and all booth images, clothing, and placement are standardized to achieve unified image and management. (New Society)
