KEY WORDS
Pempek, COVID-19, enterprises, public service.
The World Health Organization has declared Corona Virus Disease 2019 (Covid-19) as a pandemic. Indonesia has also designated Covid-19 as an outbreak or pandemic on April 13, 2020. Corona virus or SARS-CoV-2 is a virus that attacks the respiratory system with the most common symptoms being fever, dry cough, and fatigue. The disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 is referred to as Covid-19. Covid-19 causes severe infections in the lungs that are severe enough to cause death. This virus is contagious very quickly and has spread to almost all countries. Various countries have implemented lockdown policies to reduce the impact of the spread of Covid-19.
In addition to creating a global health crisis, the Covid-19 pandemic has also caused negative sentiment on economic growth in Banjar Regency. Sectors related to the Pempek Windy Sekumpul business are fisheries, manufacturing, wholesale and retail trade, and the provision of accommodation and food and drink, which experienced negative growth, the values were -2%, -2.87%, -3.93% and -0.44%. Likewise, the Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) of Banjar Regency penetrated the negative number, namely -1.96% (Riva'i, 2021).
The Covid-19 pandemic had an impact on the Small Food Industry in Banjar Regency in 2020 compared to 2019 with a decrease in business unit growth -5.15%, employment -
6.58%, production value -18.06% and raw material value -13 ,91% while the investment value increased by 12.21% (Banjar Industry and Trade Office, 2021)
The pandemic crisis has an impact on the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) Sector compared to large businesses. This is different from the 1998 crisis, MSMEs were more persistent. The pandemic has had two of the worst impacts on MSMEs, namely in terms of demand and supply of goods/services according to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). This can be seen from the supply side, business actors face production constraints in the form of processes that are disrupted by regional quarantine (lockdown), restrictions on community activities, and workers who cannot maximize their potential due to illness, mandatory self-quarantine, and others. On the other hand, from the demand side, there was a dramatic change that put pressure on their income, thus disrupting the liquidity of these business actors.
Banjar Regency has a large potential for processing fishery products with a wide variety of products such as kerupuk ikan (fish crackers), abon ikan (shredded fish), amplang, fish sticks, salted fish, fish rengginang, frozen food (meatballs, pempek). In this unfavorable situation. the processing groups stopped their production, and some processing groups reduced their production by up to 80%. This is due to the difficulty of raw materials as a result of regional partitions that hinder the distribution of goods and the mobility of people. The decline in people's purchasing power triggered by Termination of Employment (PHK) resulted in decreased demand for processed products (Banjar Fisheries Extension Interview, 2021). The Central Statistics Agency for Banjar Regency in 2021 recorded an unemployment rate during the Covid-19 pandemic of 12,317 people.
Pempek Windy Sekumpul Martapura is one of these processing groups. This pempek business was founded in 2009, starting with selling pempek with wheelbarrows, within 6 months it was possible to rent a house and shop in the Sekumpul Urban Village area. The building is separated into two parts (for the production room and the restaurant). Mrs.Wiwik Kesumawati as the owner with all the calculations for renting a shophouse, she is very sure that the pempek request will have good prospects. The variant of pempek is a submarine filled with chicken eggs, a submarine filled with duck eggs, lenjer, skin, adaan, shrimp and small eggs. With 6 employees and assisted by 2 people, the business continues to grow and open a new branch at the Culinary Market, Pasar Martapura. As an MSME based on processed food from mackerel, it has advantages, including providing food needs to survive, maintain health and increase body immunity.
The offer of Pempek Windy Sekumpul during the Covid-19 Pandemic was 547,579 pieces, an increase from the previous period of 527,705 pieces or 3.76%. This increase in supply is in contrast to most other business actors who stop production, reduce production or switch other businesses. In other words, Pempek Windy Sekumpul has successfully survived the Covid-19 pandemic. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the offer of Pempek Windy Sekumpul along with strategies for survival and future business development.

According to Hanafie (2010) There are several things that contribute to the supply of goods from producers: product prices, number of producers, input prices, technology, expectations of goods in the future, and elasticity of goods.
The price of Pempek Windy Sekumpul is very affordable for customers. Prices are very varied starting from IDR 1000 for the Small Egg Pempek and Shrimp Pempek variants, the price is IDR 3000 for the kulit and Adaan Pempek, the price is IDR 11,000 for the Kapal selam with Chicken Egg Pempek and the price is IDR 15,000 for the Kapal selam with Duck Egg Pempek. Customers have the freedom to choose the desired pempek according to their tastes and financial conditions. With these variants and prices, the customer segmentation is very wide ranging from children, teenagers and adults. Such as pempek kulit, adaan, small eggs, shrimp are much liked by children and teenagers, while pempek kapal selam with duck eggs or chicken eggs and lenjer pempek are much liked by adults. Small eggs pempek and shrimp are selling very well because tastes and prices are in line with consumer expectations. The price of Pempek Windy assemblage is the most affordable among other pempek producers. Purchases with a package or mixed system may be burdensome for customers and are not free to choose what pempek to buy. Meanwhile, at Pempek Windy Sekumpul only IDR 5000 can enjoy at the restaurant comfortably. This may be what makes the strength and uniqueness of Pempek Windy come together so that it makes loyal customers.
Many producers initially make the supply increase, then there is competition between producers until finally the supply does not increase anymore. The number of producers can be a threat and can also have a positive influence on maintaining quality and increasing production and product competitiveness. Pempek Windy Sekumpul as stated by the owner, is not afraid of the many pempek producers. Competitive prices and flavors and a comfortable place to eat become a force to compete among fellow pempek producers. There are in the survey planning 2 places to develope their pempek business in addition to the existing branch in the Culinary Area, Martapura Market, Banjar Regency.
Prices of inputs or production factors will determine production costs and in the end become a reference for determining the price of pempek offered. Including production inputs are mackerel fish raw materials IDR 50,000 - 55,000 per kg in certain situations such as the fasting month or times of difficult catch. At that time, the price of mackerel fish could reach IDR 60,000 - IDR 75,000 per kilogram. The price of additional materials is IDR 300,000; labor wages: 6 people x Rp. 60,000 ; Electricity, Water, Wifi etc.: IDR 1.000.000 ; Ruko rent IDR 40,000,000 per year. The raw materials for Mackerel fish are obtained from Batulicin Port, Trisakti Port Banjarmasin and Banjarbaru Market as well as savings and loans for raw materials between business actors in Banjarbaru. With these sources of raw materials, so far, the quality, availability and continuity of raw materials have been maintained. Additional ingredients include: Wheat flour, chilies, eggs, cooking oil, tamarind etc. were obtained from the Martapura Market, Banjar Regency. The price of additives often fluctuates but usually an increase in a commodity is followed by a decrease in other additives. So they cross subsidize each other so that the impact of the increase in materials is not too pronounced.
The labor wage of IDR 60,000/person is the net wage. As for eating and drinking, housing and other necessities have been borne by the owner. Employees can focus on work because all their needs have been met. Number of Employees Pempek Windy Sekumpul of 6 women assisted by 2 persons of the owner who handles administration and finances. Employee recruitment is carried out on the selection and recommendation of resigned employees. Employees who resign usually because of marriage. The recruitment method is intended to quickly integrate with other employees, quickly get the chemistry. Meanwhile, the assignment of the owner's son is not only to teach and train business skills but also to prepare good administrative and financial reports. This report is very important for business evaluation and determining future business strategy.
Other fixed costs are electricity, water, credit and shophouse rental. Electricity is provided by PLN, water from PDAM is stored in tanks or tendons and cleaned regularly to maintain water quality. Phone credit is important for marketing media via social media, gojek and confirming requests for raw materials etc. The shop house occupied is still rented, IDR 40,000,000 / year. Several times, Ruko wanted to be bought, because they felt it was suitable for the business there, but the owner was not sold or released. 2-storey shophouse building, the top floor is for employees to live on the bottom floor is divided into 2, for the purposes of the restaurant and the pempek production room.
Substitute goods also affect the supply of an item. If the price of substitute goods increases, the supply of these goods will increase, and vice versa. Meanwhile, if complementary goods increase, the supply of these goods will decrease, and vice versa. Substitute goods play an important role in the market. These goods are useful for consumers because they add many choices for consumers, what products are chosen to meet consumer needs. For producers, substitute goods are a threat. Lack of accuracy in determining prices results in consumers moving to substitute products, lowering sales, and lowering company profits.
Ahmad (2014) explain Complementary goods are goods whose use values complement each other.That is, if the item is used alone and there are no complementary items, then the need cannot be fulfilled perfectly. considering the importance of the role of complementary goods, this can cause other goods that have a functional relationship with them cannot be used optimally, or cannot be used at all. Complementary goods included in pempek are fish raw materials, cooking oil, wheat flour, etc. So far, an increase in the price of a complementary good is often followed by a decrease in the price of other complementary goods so that they can subsidize each other and maintain the price of the production input. Furthermore, the price of pempek remains stable and under control.
There are several goods that have the potential to become substitutes that cause consumers to switch, including meatballs, pentol kuah, martabak, siomay, and batagor. If the price of pempek increases, consumers will switch to these goods. In the last 3 years there has been no increase in the price of pempek, while the price of these goods is around IDR 10,000 - IDR 15,000 is still higher than the price of pempek which has its own customer segment. This is what keeps the Pempek Windy Sekumpul offerings stable and under control.

The owner is from Palembang, Pempek is the best-known of Palembang's dishes. Its origin is undoubtedly Palembang. The owner started the pempek business in 2009 with a wheelbarrow in front of the Pelita Insani Martapura Hospital. It only takes 6 months; dare to rent a shophouse in Sekumpul Village with a cost rent IDR 40,000,000/year. The decision to rent a shophouse was taken based on the consideration that the community's demand for pempek production was very good. Customers also want to enjoy pempek comfortably in a restaurant.
