According to a report from Kuai Keji on November 9th, recent data released by Pang Donglai’s official website indicates that as of November 8th, the company’s sales this year have surpassed 20.035 billion yuan. This figure represents an increase of 3 billion yuan compared to the total sales of 16.964 billion yuan for the entire year of 2024, suggesting a significant acceleration in growth.
Analyzing the sales performance across different business formats in 2025, Pang Donglai’s supermarket sector continues to be the leading contributor, generating over 10.9 billion yuan in revenue. This dominance highlights the enduring appeal and operational efficiency of their core retail model.
Within the company’s various store locations this year, the Times Square branch has emerged as the top performer, achieving sales exceeding 5.1 billion yuan. This concentration of sales in a flagship location underscores the importance of strategic site selection and strong local market presence for Pang Donglai.
Further illustrating the company’s robust performance, during the National Day holiday period this year, Pang Donglai recorded sales of 820 million yuan over an eight-day span, averaging over 100 million yuan per day. This demonstrates exceptional consumer engagement and purchasing power during peak consumer periods.
It is noteworthy that in March of this year, Yu Donglai, the founder of Pang Donglai, had publicly stated the company’s intention to manage sales growth. He expressed a goal of keeping the annual sales within 20 billion yuan, aiming to control the pace of expansion. This proactive management approach was driven by a concern that rapid sales increases could necessitate increased working hours and pressure on employees, potentially compromising the company’s foundational values centered on employee well-being and a healthy work-life balance.
His reasoning was that an uncontrolled surge in sales could lead to employees having to work overtime and bear greater pressure, which could inevitably impact the enterprise’s initial values. This perspective underlines Pang Donglai’s commitment to a sustainable business model that prioritizes its people over pure revenue maximization.
