The hot pot market in numbers

Success Principle #1.
Service that anyone can do, but no one could think of
Success Principle #2.
Differentiated service
Success Principle #3.
People centered management
“A company can standardize service to ensure consistency, but as individual customers have different needs and conditions, it is impossible to standardize one-on-one service. Therefore, the success of the service depends on the attitude of individual employees. This is highly related to Hai Di Lao’s happiness management, which moves employees’ heart.”
“As a matter of fact, we don’t have a lot of stores in China (101 stores as of November 2014). But our customer awareness is quite high. The services we offer are impressive, too. The most important thing, however, is that we provide boundless services to our employees. Hai Di Lao’s management principle is ‘people centered.’ Our goal as a company is to make our employees happy.”
“The starting salary is not so big. It begins at 2,500RMB (KRW 430,000) and increases to 7,000RMB (KRW 1.2 million) two years later upon promotion. However, such a moderate rate of increase cannot be the reason Hai Di Lao has an employee turnover of just 8%, compared to the food service industry average of 40%.”
“I’ll focus on employee satisfaction, even if it means opening less stores. That is the way you can meet more customers.”
