<p>在 1980 年代，雖然旋轉烤雞可能已經存在，但並沒有像今天這樣成為主流食品。</p>
<p>例如，Costco 以 4.99 美元出售整隻旋轉烤雞而聞名，但實際上直到 1994 年才開始銷售這一受歡迎的商品。</p>
<p>“著名的 4.99 美元雞在 1994 年正式在 Costco 亮相。根據 Eat This, Not That 的説法，除了在 2008 年大蕭條期間短暫漲價一美元外，Costco 一直致力於保持雞肉價格穩定，儘管面臨持續的通貨膨脹。”</p>
<p>這家倉儲俱樂部實際上在銷售其受歡迎的雞肉時是虧損的。但 Deliciously Rushed 的創始人、Costco 的忠實顧客 Rose Sioson 認為，Costco 通過讓顧客為了這隻價值雞而走進門，完全彌補了這一點。</p>
<p>“從技術上講，Costco 在每隻旋轉烤雞上可能會虧損，但相信我——在我接下來購買的東西上，他們並沒有虧損，” Sioson 説。“那隻雞通常會和沙拉包、現成的土豆泥、一瓶酒、也許還有一份甜點，以及一些我完全沒有打算購買的隨機商品一起放進購物車。這是經典的 Costco 策略。”</p>
<p>當一家大型零售商將你的核心產品作為虧損引導商品出售時，這對業務來説從來都不是好事，但這只是波士頓市場被推向完全消失邊緣的原因之一。</p>
<h2>波士頓市場關閉了近 1200 家門店</h2>
<p>在 1980 年代，我在波士頓郊外長大時，我的姑姑常常來訪，並且她經常帶來當時被稱為波士頓雞的雞肉。那時，這家公司是一家小型地方連鎖店，實際上是在波士頓的一個郊區成立的。</p>
<p>這是我第一次接觸旋轉烤雞，這個概念迅速流行開來。麥當勞甚至在短暫的時間內也是其投資者。</p>
<h3>波士頓市場快速成長，迅速崩潰</h3>
<ul>
<li>高峰時期：波士頓市場在 1990 年代的全國高峰期曾擁有超過 1200 家美國餐廳。從 1990 年代末到 2023 年，門店數量從 1200 家下降到 300 家。</li>
<li>2023-2024 年衰退：根據 Restaurant Business Online 的報道，該連鎖店在 2023 年初從 300 個地點急劇縮減到 2024 年初不足 30 個。</li>
<li>2025 年初的門店數量：估計到 2025 年初，全國僅剩不足 20 個地點仍在營業，許多門店在沒有通知的情況下消失，Flavor365 補充道，這與其以前的規模形成了鮮明對比。</li>
<li>流動數字：官方網站和應用程序上的公司官方列表大大高估了開放的門店數量；許多列出的單位已確認關閉，Restaurant Business Online 報道。</li>
</ul>
<p>從技術上講，該連鎖店仍然存在，但其所有者已嘗試申請破產兩次。</p>
<p>“波士頓市場的所有者 Jay Pandya——面臨來自供應商、特許經營商和員工關於未支付賬單的數百起訴訟——於 2023 年 12 月 8 日在賓夕法尼亞州東區破產法院申請個人破產。他在破產文件中列出了 1000 萬到 5000 萬美元的負債和同樣範圍的資產，” Nation's Restaurant News 報道。</p>
<p>該申請及隨後的申請被法院駁回。</p>
<p>該公司的總部位於丹佛，因 30 萬美元的未支付税款被當地當局查封，多個供應商已對波士頓市場提起訴訟，原因是未支付賬單。此外，許多門店被迫關閉，或員工因供應商合同到期或被取消而在超市購買食品來補充庫存，NRN 報道。</p>
<p>該連鎖店還面臨一項法院判決，要求向其主要供應商美國食品公司支付 1500 萬美元，PacerMonitor 報道。</p>

<h3>波士頓市場破產簡述</h3>
<ul>
<li>第 11 章嘗試：波士頓市場的所有者（Jay Pandya）代表公司申請了兩次第 11 章破產保護，但由於程序和文件問題，法院駁回了這兩次申請，RetailWire 報道。</li>

<li>未支付的義務：該品牌面臨因未支付租金、供應商債務（例如，美國食品公司的索賠）和拖欠工資而引發的法律訴訟，這迫使其關閉，Flavor365 報道。</li>
<li>驅逐與關閉：由於未支付義務，多個地點被當局驅逐或下令關閉。</li>
<li>品牌仍然存在，但處於瀕死狀態：少數波士頓市場餐廳在技術上仍然開放，但與其以前的規模相比，該連鎖店的規模微小，Flavor365 報道。</li>
<li>在崩潰中開設新店：儘管關閉，該公司在破產申請後至少開設了一家新店，表明其試圖扭轉局面，RetailWire 分享。</li>
</ul>
<h2>波士頓市場仍希望吸引新特許經營商</h2>
<p>在 2024 年，Pandya 發佈了一項新的特許經營計劃，將波士頓市場帶到非傳統地點。他正在授權該品牌，因為它沒有合法設立以提供傳統特許經營。</p>
<p>“波士頓市場的名字本身就代表了它，且在全國範圍內廣為人知，” Pandya 在當時向 Nation’s Restaurant News 發表的聲明中説。“現在，在大家的支持下，我們將能夠向每個人提供我們著名的旋轉烤雞和美味的自制配菜及家庭餐。我們鼓勵任何有地點和希望將波士頓市場虛擬添加到其業務中的人聯繫我們並與我們合作。”</p>
<p><strong>更多餐廳</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Taco Bell 和 KFC 正在簡化他們的餐廳</li>
<li>Chick-fil-A 在全國範圍內對 425 家餐廳進行重大改動</li>
<li>破產的啤酒和比薩餐廳連鎖關閉了多個門店</li>
<li>以粗魯服務聞名的餐廳連鎖關閉了多家門店</li>
</ul>
<p>許多人對這個計劃持懷疑態度。</p>
<p>“在這個時候，這只是他詐騙某人的一種方式，” 前波士頓市場運營區域總監 Gina Busby 對 RetailWire 説。“他欠員工數百萬的未支付工資，包括我在內。他沒有報告所賺取的工資，因此人們無法申請失業救濟。他欺詐性地將主管報告為 1099 員工。他沒有支付應付的費用。更多的訴訟和集體訴訟正在向他襲來。”</p>
<h2>波士頓市場導致了自己的瀕臨滅亡</h2>
<p>餐飲分析師 Aaron Allen 對 FCNews 説，這個連鎖店導致了自己的衰退。</p>
<p>“在 1990 年代，它以高於快餐的標準自我區分，試圖通過降低成本與這些品牌競爭——這一舉動最終導致了質量下降，進一步削弱了自身的競爭力，” 他分享道。</p>
<p>“如果你追求低價消費者，你可能會把自己定價到破產的邊緣，” Allen 説。</p>
<p>雜貨店也搶走了波士頓市場的生意，因為它們開始在擴展的熟食區添加旋轉烤雞。</p>
<p>“從本質上講，波士頓市場成為了自己成功的受害者。在幫助普及整隻烤雞後——在某些情況下，將這一概念介紹給消費者——該連鎖最終看到像 Costco 這樣的商家以更低的價格提供相同的產品，” 零售和餐飲專家 Steve Feldman 寫道。</p>
<p>一位前員工 Josh Taylor 在 Linkedin 上發佈了關於該品牌衰退的帖子。</p>
<p>“過度飽和、競爭和食品成本扼殺了波士頓市場。也許你可以説食品成本是由於擴展的菜單，但人們喜歡菜單上的所有項目，” 他寫道。</p>
<p>商業研究公司 Franchi Business Enterprises 的總裁 Jorge Franchi 分享了他對該連鎖衰退的看法。</p>
<p>“廚房變得複雜，質量下降，服務變慢。顧客對波士頓市場真正代表什麼感到困惑。向三明治的推進使他們在價格上與麥當勞和賽百味直接競爭。在一個屋檐下經營兩種業務模糊了品牌的身份，剝奪了其優勢，” 他分享道。</p>

<p>波士頓市場曾是一家受歡迎的烤雞連鎖店，但已關閉近 1200 個門店，從 2023 年初的 300 家縮減到 2024 年初的不到 30 家。該公司面臨破產申請、未支付賬單和訴訟，導致大量門店關閉。擁有者 Jay Pandya 於 2023 年 12 月申請個人破產，負債在 1000 萬到 5000 萬美元之間。儘管嘗試申請第 11 章破產保護，但由於程序問題，法院拒絕了這些申請。目前，僅剩少數門店仍在運營，該品牌正面臨生存困境</p>

<p>Back in the 1980s, rotisserie chicken may have existed, but it was not a staple in the way it has become today.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>在 1980 年代，雖然旋轉烤雞可能已經存在，但並沒有像今天這樣成為主流食品。</p>
</div><p>Costco, for example, which has become well-known for selling an entire rotisserie chicken for $4.99, did not actually start selling the popular item until 1994.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>例如，Costco 以 4.99 美元出售整隻旋轉烤雞而聞名，但實際上直到 1994 年才開始銷售這一受歡迎的商品。</p>
</div><p>&#34;The famous $4.99 chicken made its official Costco debut in 1994. Aside from a brief dollar increase in 2008 during the Great Recession, Costco has remained committed to keeping the chicken’s price steady despite ongoing inflation,&#34; according to Eat This, Not That.</p>

</div><p>The warehouse club actually loses money selling its popular chicken. But Rose Sioson, founder of Deliciously Rushed and an avid Costco shopper, thinks Costco more than makes up for it just by getting customers through the door for that value chicken.</p>

</div><p>“Costco may technically lose money on each rotisserie chicken they sell, but trust me —they’re not losing when it comes to what I buy next,” Sioson told. “That chicken usually ends up in a cart with salad kits, ready-made mashed potatoes, a bottle of wine, maybe a dessert, and some random item I had zero intention of buying. It’s classic Costco strategy.”</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>“從技術上講，Costco 在每隻旋轉烤雞上可能會虧損，但相信我——在我接下來購買的東西上，他們並沒有虧損，” Sioson 説。“那隻雞通常會和沙拉包、現成的土豆泥、一瓶酒、也許還有一份甜點，以及一些我完全沒有打算購買的隨機商品一起放進購物車。這是經典的 Costco 策略。”</p>
