During the Spring Festival in 2022, the sales momentum of the company’s products is good, the market is booming, and the company has successfully achieved a “good start”; The year-on-year increase in performance was mainly due to the price increase of non-standard liquor, the increment of new products in 1935, and the contribution of product and channel structure optimization.

During the new year’s day of 22, the company also raised the prices of rare Maotai and Maotai Vintage liquor to varying degrees.

The company adheres to the “five line development path”, actively carries out “five in one marketing”, and makes it clear that Maotai will make “great strides” in reform and development in 2022, and accelerate the reform of products and channels. During the Spring Festival in 2022, the company adjusted the unpacking policy of Feitian Maotai liquor, cancelled the mandatory unpacking policy of 6 bottles per box, and added a new specification of 12 bottles per box. The incremental quota is mainly put into self-supporting, e-commerce and other direct channels to better meet the needs of consumers. In terms of product structure, the company launched a new rare Maotai liquor, with a super high-end layout, and further improved the product structure of high-end Maotai liquor; In addition, Maotai 1935, a heavy new product, was launched, and the price belt of 1000 yuan was arranged to be close to consumers, so as to effectively undertake the overflow demand of Feitian Maotai and become a new growth pole of the company.
The reform dividend continues to be released and is optimistic about the high elasticity of the whole year. 1. According to the historical base liquor quantity, the finished Maotai liquor is expected to increase by 3000 tons or more in 2022; In addition, it is expected that the annual release of the new Maotai 1935 can reach 20 Jinzai Food Group Co.Ltd(003000) tons, which also contributes to considerable growth. 2. In 2022, the incremental quota will be mainly put into direct sales channels such as e-commerce and supermarkets, so as to optimize the channel structure and drive the ton price increase at the same time; Recently, the company raised the price of some non-standard products, gradually implemented the market-oriented reform action, and made great strides in reform at the right time. 3.
