The capital landscape of the bulk snack industry is once again stirring. On February 28, Hong Kong-listed company HUITONGDA NET signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Snack Selection. The announcement revealed that the two parties will establish a joint venture as the sole operational entity for the "Snack Selection" brand chain. In the future, Snack Selection will maintain regional autonomous operations and continue to deepen its focus on the hard discount bulk snack sector; HUITONGDA will provide support in areas such as platformization, ecological development, capitalization, and AI capabilities. **Thus, another participant with a listed company background has joined the bulk snack sector.** This cooperation occurs at a time when the industry landscape is rapidly solidifying. The business logic of bulk snacks is not complicated: the more stores there are, the more centralized the procurement, the stronger the bargaining power, and the more stable the gross profit margin; once scale is achieved, it becomes increasingly difficult for newcomers to catch up. Since 2023, the two leading companies in the bulk snack sector have been continuously expanding their territory through mergers and acquisitions, with a combined store count nearing 40,000 and a total market share exceeding 70%. Among them, Mingming is busy has completed its listing on the Hong Kong stock market, and Wanchen Group's "A+H" process is also underway. The combination of capital and scale further reinforces the Matthew effect. In contrast, while Snack Selection, as a regional brand, has a certain scale foundation, it faces constraints in terms of national expansion and capital operations. **What HUITONGDA values may be the offline network extension space brought by the high-frequency consumption scenario of bulk snacks.** As an industrial internet platform, HUITONGDA has been promoting the integration of AI with offline store scenarios in recent years, strengthening systematic support for physical retail terminals. At the supply chain level, its membership store system is expected to connect with Snack Selection's hard discount product resources, optimizing product structure, enhancing customer flow and repurchase rates, and exploring a standardized replication path of "fast-moving consumer goods upgrade + small store big chain," thereby increasing the stickiness and profitability between the platform and stores. In terms of AI and digitalization, HUITONGDA has commercialized applications in retail chain scenarios around its self-developed "QianCheng Cloud AI Model" and related AI Agents. After this cooperation, the relevant systems can be quickly deployed to Snack Selection's 2,800 stores, connecting data, decision-making, and operational processes, from product selection, warehousing and distribution to store management and community operations, achieving a higher degree of refined management. The high-frequency consumption attributes of bulk snacks and the community scenario stickiness will also fill an important puzzle piece for HUITONGDA in the hard discount sector. Whether the curve can achieve overtaking remains to be seen over time. However, it is certain that against the backdrop of increasing industry concentration, single-dimensional expansion is no longer capable of shaking the existing landscape, and the focus of competition will ultimately shift to the contest of supply chain efficiency and system capabilities ### Related Stocks - [09878.HK - HUITONGDA NET](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/09878.HK.md) ## Related News & Research | Title | Description | URL | |-------|-------------|-----| | Sumsub 推 AI 代理驗證 防止深度偽造影像偽冒用户 | Sumsub 推出 AI 代理驗證解決方案,以應對電商平台因 AI 代理引發的安全風險。該方案旨在確認人類在場及其授權,防止深度偽造影像偽冒用户。亞太區 84% 的欺詐個案涉及網上帳户控制權,騙徒利用 AI 技術繞過傳統驗證程序。Sumsu | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/277388821.md) | | 全球人工智慧峯會呼籲打造安全可信強健 AI | 在新德裡舉行的全球人工智慧峯會閉幕,86 個國家及 2 個國際組織發布聯合宣言,呼籲發展安全、可信且強健的 AI。會議討論生成式 AI 的影響,強調節能 AI 系統的重要性,並提出自願性倡議以整合國際 AI 研究能力。宣言指出,AI 的益處 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276518719.md) | | 為什麼學習 “AI 語言” 可以幫助您的資金經理戰勝市場 | 這篇文章討論了金融專業人士學習 “説 AI” 的重要性,強調掌握 AI 提示技能在行業成功中變得至關重要。AI 工具正在改變工作流程,使分析師和投資組合經理能夠提升他們的表現和決策速度。擁抱 AI 提示的公司將獲得競爭優勢,而抵制的公司可能 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276920714.md) | | 現在用 1000 美元購買的頂級人工智能(AI)股票 | 市場正在為投資者提供一些領先 AI 股票的折扣價格 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/277390794.md) | | 無視海外 “AI 恐慌”,中國市場狂炒 AI 贏家 | 同一個 AI,截然相反的命運。美國市場陷入” 恐慌性拋售”,中國投資者瘋狂追捧:智譜 AI 一度暴漲 524%,MiniMax 一度飆升 488%。分歧本質是美國投資者焦慮於豐厚利潤池面臨競爭威脅,而中國關注的仍是市場滲透。 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276531940.md) | --- > **Disclaimer**: This article is for reference only and does not constitute any investment advice.
