$LKNCY Alright gang, results are in from today’s visits and here’s what I’m seeing. Store 8921 is a giant “relax” store about as central as you can get in Chengdu, overlooking Tianfu Square. Today is Saturday, right in the middle of China’s second biggest holiday, National Week. It’s one of two times during the year when the whole country gets a week off.
608 orders processed over 11 hours and 21 minutes. That’s just over 53 per hour. The average of all the Luckins I’ve ever visited is 46.5, so this was about 15% higher than the average store.
A few important notes. I was the first order today. You can see from the data that sales are way down at that time. This data also included late afternoon orders, which also tend to be slow. During lunchtime they were killing it.
Also, holiday stats can fluctuate from the norm. However, I feel that the number for this store is pretty standard because it’s the type of location that isn’t impacted much by weekends/holidays.
