'BEER LADY'

Zhang Yindi, 60, and her team are thinking about holding a summer beer and crayfish festival.

Known as the "Beer Lady", Zhang owns a company that operates four stores selling international craft beers in Shanghai.

When indoor dining resumes in the city, she plans to hold the festival at the company's flagship outlet in Songjiang district.

"In an effort to boost the night economy and help the city get back on its feet, our month-long festival will feature numerous craft beers, crayfish and barbecues," she said.

Zhang and some of her employees have lived in the flagship store for two months.

Instead of doing online business to make a profit, Zhang decided to provide meals and drinks to hundreds of workers at companies based in the Yunjian Granary, where her main outlet is located.

She provides the meals and drinks for free, but accepts a token sum from those who insist on paying.

"Trying to make a profit on the back of people's woes is against my principles. The more difficult the times are, the more responsible entrepreneurs should be," she said.
