Beijing**Client|Reporter Sun Ying.
In December 2023, Beijing experienced heavy snowfall and extremely cold weather. With the strong support of Fengtai District, the capital's largest "vegetable basket" Xinfadi market, focusing on the four elements of "goods, fields, people, and vehicles" and the four major links of "production, marketing, insurance, and supply", has practiced the "four guarantee mechanism", withstood repeated tests, and the daily vegetable volume has stabilized at more than 20,000 tons, becoming the "ballast stone" for the supply and price stability of agricultural products in the capital.
After the cold wave and snowfall warning, Fengtai District quickly deployed emergency supply guarantee work, and the Xinfadi Headquarters stationed on the front line took the lead in implementing it and initiating effective response measures. Zhang Gengzheng, deputy commander of the Xinfadi Transformation and Upgrading Headquarters in Fengtai District, introduced that through this blizzard and extremely cold weather, Fengtai District and Xinfadi Market have improved the "four guarantee mechanism" of ensuring supply, transportation, trading and distribution, and further enhanced the ability to ensure supply and stabilize prices.
In terms of ensuring supply, Fengtai District took the initiative to connect with Guangxi, Yunnan, Hainan and other major producing areas of southern cuisine in Beijing, and communicated in a timely manner. The market actively contacts the planting base, mobilizes the "top 100" and "king" and other key merchants in the market, organizes farmers in the production area to speed up picking and sorting, and increases the supply to the capital, and also reserves a temporary trading area to meet the storage and trading needs of vehicles and goods entering Beijing, enrich the emergency warehouse reserves, and carry out rotational reserves of 3,000 tons of dishes in 9 categories such as potatoes, onions, and Chinese cabbage, and put them on the market at any time according to the monitoring dynamics to ensure that they are sufficient and controllable.
In terms of transportation, the Xinfadi Headquarters of Fengtai District and the Xinfadi Market have made joint efforts to give priority to the supply of large vehicles to ensure the overall transportation capacity, and timely organize market staff and merchants to clear snow and ice, coordinate safety, engineering, water, electricity and heating and other departments, pull the net inspection, investigate potential safety hazards, and ensure the smooth progress of vegetable transportation and market transactions.
In terms of guaranteed transactions, Xinfadi Market has made sufficient cold-proof measures, issued additional tents, quilts and other cold-proof materials for merchants, and added boiling water points and material distribution points, and allocated foam boxes and insulated containers for easy-to-freeze vegetables, so as to do a good job of double warmth measures for personnel and goods in a timely manner.
In terms of guaranteed distribution, the Xinfadi market has increased the delivery of delivery vehicles, increased the frequency of distribution, and deployed more than 100 vegetable through trains to be on standby 24 hours a day during heavy snowfall to respond to the requirements of supply guarantee at any time. It also coordinates the allocation of resources for major distribution companies in the market, shares traffic condition information, and effectively improves distribution efficiency.
During the blizzard and extremely cold weather, we gave full play to the role of Xinfadi Market as a convenient direct store in various communities, quickly deployed vegetables and fruits in the market into the community, timely stabilized the retail end**, and effectively ensured the 'last mile'. Zhang Yuelin, general manager of Xinfadi market, introduced that the "four guarantee mechanism" not only plays a role in the extremely cold weather of heavy snow, but also can maintain sufficient and rich varieties during major events and important festivals, and play the role of "ballast stone" in ensuring the supply and price stability of agricultural products in the capital.
Zhang Yuelin introduced that on the next New Year's Day and Spring Festival, the Xinfadi market will continue to do a good job in the docking of origins, allocate the supply of goods into Beijing in advance, strengthen the rotation reserve of vegetable emergency warehouses and the monitoring of data such as market entry and exit vehicles, market volume, and other data, so as to ensure that the amount of vegetables, fruits, meat, eggs and other agricultural and sideline products is sufficient and stable during the "two festivals". In addition, from January 18 to February 5, 2024, Xinfadi Market will also hold the 2nd Xinfadi New Year Goods Festival and Collection and Distribution Festival to enrich the market during the "Two Festivals".
