Recently, another Asian-American man has set off a wave of comments online.
The reason for this is this: as we all know, Australian milk powder restrictions have become stricter recently.
As China's demand for Australian milk powder is too large, purchasing agents often rush to buy milk powder from Australian supermarkets and pharmacies. For a long time, Australia's local mothers do not have milk powder. As a result, Australian supermarkets to ensure that local babies also have milk powder, just began to tighten the purchase order.
Recently, however, the Asian-American man was pushed to the fore by netizens for blatant disregard of the milk powder restriction order.
Restricted? It doesn't exist!
At the time, the Asian-looking man sat outside a Woolworths house in eastern Melbourne and piled up 1, 2, 3. Three whole shopping carts of milk powder!
According to the visual, this should be Glen Waverley's Woolworths, comparison, he should be sitting in the middle of the round chair.
And from the exposure of the picture can be seen in the shopping cart A2, Corcoran and Bellamy and so on everyone likes to see the Australian milk brand, there are all! That could add up to 50 or 60 cans!
Excuse me? What about the purchase restrictions? What about two cans per person?
As early as last November, Woolworths's purchasing manager, James Hepworth, said that in order for every consumer to have a fair and fair chance of buying milk powder, Woolworths would impose strict restrictions on purchases, reducing the original four cans to two cans.
Woolworths understands how frustrated consumers are when they can't buy what they want, and that's just one step in what we do when we're doing the right thing. In particular, such as infant milk powder such as household necessities.
Supermarket enforce purchase restriction orde
Of course, the Australian media also know the suffering of consumers. After all, the reputation of purchasing milk powder by purchasing agents in China has spread all over the world. The Daily Mail also said:
Chinese consumers are in high demand for Australian milk powder, which they believe is safer and more reliable than Chinese milk powder. A professional buyer named "purchasing agent" buys a large number of products from Australian supermarkets and then ships them to China.
Before the order was cut again, Hepworth said most Woolworths consumers would only buy the amount they needed. But "lowering the limit to two cans means we'll be better able to support consumers."
Another Woolworths spokesman also said that the current two cans of milk powder purchase restrictions are enforced.
Our two cans of milk powder restriction have been enforced since last October to make it easy for more families in need to buy what they want. Although most consumers will only buy the amount they need, we will continue to strictly enforce the 2 cans of milk powder restriction.
We work with suppliers to ensure adequate inventory is available to every Australian family.
The words are pretty good, but, in front of these three cars of milk powder is a responsibility, you really do not need to come out to explain it?
The milk powder we robbed over the years,
However, for well-informed friends, such "crazy" buy milk powder news can be said to be "menstrual stickers." Is there anything we haven't been through with milk powder?
Now let's take stock of those years. How did they rob milk powder?
Once, a middle-aged woman ignored the supermarket ban and moved four boxes of milk powder in a row.
Once, an Asian woman and three people entered the supermarket, although in compliance with the ban, one person four cans, but suddenly removed 12 cans of milk powder from the supermarket.
Once, a group of four people in West Sydney were in Woolworth, one person, four cans, the whole milk was carried without a word, and the check-out was separated from each other. But the tacit eye contact and body language still made people see at a glance that the four people were together. But obviously "the milk hoarding business is too skilled".
Once a woman with one strength to hold a board milk powder, eventually all into the bag.
Once, a couple moved milk powder from the supermarket to fill their trunk.
Once upon a time, they were seen pushing hundreds of cans of baby milk from the supermarket
Once upon a time, two people fought in the supermarket to buy a can of milk powde
As vice rises one foot, virtue rises ten
Milk powder is so popular that we all try our best to buy a few more cans, and the Australian supermarket is painstakingly trying to stop this phenomenon of sweeping away.
As early as 2015, there was the concept of limited purchase, and then with the crazy sales of Australian milk powder, the restriction on purchase of the hoop was becoming more and more tight!
In 2015, the purchase limit-8 cans!
Next, the purchase limit-4 cans!
And then, limit 2 cans!
Until now, only to go to the counter to buy!
Even, it's covered with lost milk powder.
Locked milk powder cove
All can come up with the tactics, the supermarket basically used a seven-eight-eight!
Anyway, can think all thought, the situation still did not improve! Diss Chinese people buy milk powder news is still as punctual as the big aunt of every month!
Australian businessmen are the real names of purchasing agents.
Of course, milk powder can not get this kind of thing, nor can we blame the Chinese and purchasing agents. Don't milk powder merchants have a little responsibility?!
A well-known Australian businessman, Matthew McDougall, came forward and said:
The main culprit in the Australian baby milk powder war is never purchasing agents. They shouldn't carry this pot.
Dr McDougall set up the Australia-China purchasing agency association earlier this year to raise public awareness of the fast-growing but controversial daigou business model and to improve the relationship between the two.
McDougall points out that, in fact, there are many products in the market for overseas purchasing, so the purchasing pattern on the baby's milk powder market is so obvious, because the infant formula is especially short, and the anger of the Australian parents is caused.
Purchasing agents do affect consumers in Australia, and we need a better approach. We decided to put an end to the bad practices that hurt everyone.
McDougall defended China's purchasing agents-there would be no problem if milk powder suppliers could keep up with demand!
Australian manufacturers have the responsibility to provide milk powder to all consumers. Although purchasing agents understand that they can not continue to buy milk powder from supermarket shelves, they have no choice.
So! Although it is not good to empty milk powder shelves, if Australian milk powder manufacturers can increase production, or if Chinese milk powder manufacturers can develop milk powder that can reassure mothers, Purchasing agents don't use big bags and small bags. Fortunately, they run to grab milk powder, don't they?
Parents in order to let their babies drink milk is understandable, purchasing agents are not easy. So for the convenience of others, we should understand each other!
