    As a leader in the slaughtering industry, Shuanghui Development has established 30 meat processing bases and supporting industries in 17 provinces (cities) across the country.


      Regarding pig companies entering the slaughtering industry, some investors are worried about whether slaughter companies can only collect pigs from small and medium-sized pig companies and retail investors in the future, and the bargaining power of slaughter companies will be reduced


      First-line distributors in the Henan live pig industry said that the threshold for slaughterhouses is not high.

      Muyuan has a production capacity of 60 million heads, which can fully meet the demand for slaughter, and the cost is the lowest in the industry


      But for Shuanghui Development, it has nearly 30 years of slaughtering experience, sales channels all over the country, and obvious market advantages

      However, the slaughter industry is not a “cash cow” project.
    It is reported that the slaughter industry has been developing for a long time in China and is becoming mature.
    Due to the slow growth of downstream meat consumption demand, the domestic slaughter capacity has been in a state of overcapacity for a long time.
    The capacity utilization rate is only around 30%
    .
    Although the proportion of large-scale breeding has increased in recent years, most domestic pig breeding and pig slaughtering companies have developed independently, so the slaughtering business has not brought much profit to the listed pig companies
    .
    Although Shuanghui's slaughter business income is high, its gross profit is much lower than that of packaged meat products.
    According to the semi-annual report, the gross profit of slaughter business is about 6.
    75%, and the gross profit of packaged meat products reaches 28.
    46%
    .
    New Hope said that the slaughter business has not reached the absolute focus at present, and the next step will continue to exert efforts on the food side, especially in the deep processing of food

    .
    Wu Linlin said that at the present stage, large groups have a large scale of breeding.
    If the slaughter capacity basically covers their own production capacity, it will take a long time to evolve.
