The sushi sale was held on the 21st of March 2011 at the Energy Hub. A total of 100 boxes of sushi were made and prepared, it comes with different varieties and the price ranging from RM 3.50 to RM 5.50.
The sushi and energy setup were prepared early in the morning at 8.00am and to be sold at 10.30am. There was a slight delay during the starting of the selling because the president of the club, Ummay was not satisfied with the design on the board; she wanted the board to look more appealing. Things were sorted out very quickly with the efficient teamwork abilities from all the members.
The sales were not good in the beginning because it was not lunch hour and students usually do not like to have cold or raw food in their empty stomach. Lunch hour was the busiest moment where almost half of the sushi was sold. After lunch hour, the sales starts to slow down again but Yong and Alex suggested to bring the sushi and start selling it at the foyer. At the same time, Thomas had already started selling sushi to students and lecturer around the cafeteria. About 30 minutes had passed, Julian and Lydia reach the hub and they went along with Yong and Alex around foyer and cafeteria. About 2.00pm, Ummay arrived at the hub to help out and she suggested selling the sushi to lecturers in their office and also the AUP office. The lecturers were very helpful and bought all the sushi. Most of the credits went to Ms. Irene when she bought more than 10 boxes and spent more than RM 40. We finished selling the sushi about 3.00pm.
During the next meeting, most of the committee agreed with the prices of sushi being very expensive, especially for the extra charges for soy sauce and wasabi. Yong also suggested having flyers next time to increase awareness. All committee members done a great job and everyone were working very well together to get things done.
