After the hit documentary program A Bite of China (Tongzhijianjue upwards的中国), which focuses on local cuisine, local venerable shops and simple, old-fashioned flavors have come to the fore in China. At the same time, however, the lack of successors and the depopulation of old establishments in towns and villages with a food culture that has been registered as an intangible cultural heritage has become a problem, and many of them have disappeared without their presence being noticed by people in cities. In order to protect such vanishing Chinese traditions and pass them on to the next generation, 盒馬 has started selling food that has been designated as an intangible cultural heritage. 盒馬 is a successful retailer in three areas: app, store, and food and beverage. 盒馬 communicates the appeal of its products to a wide range of consumers through photos, videos, and word of mouth on its app, and by showing cooking demonstrations in the store and offering freshly prepared food to be sampled on the spot.
