State Administration for Market Regulation: Actively promote the strengthening of food safety supervision in online catering
2026-03-11
The reporter learned from the State Administration for Market Regulation that since 2025, the State Administration for Market Regulation has solved the problem of safety governance of platform takeaway food, promoted the modernization of the platform takeaway food safety governance system and governance capacity, implemented a series of measures, and gradually formed a collaborative governance mechanism for online catering food safety. By 2025, the State Administration for Market Regulation will use a combination of "supervision+interview+system" to continuously transmit pressure and promote the transformation of food delivery platforms from passive acceptance of supervision to active fulfillment of responsibilities by focusing on source control and consolidating the main responsibility of the platform. According to the relevant person in charge of the State Administration for Market Regulation, this is mainly reflected in three aspects: first, high-level deployment and promotion. The relevant person in charge of the State Administration for Market Regulation led a team to conduct research and supervision on top food delivery platforms, urging them to effectively fulfill their main responsibilities for food safety, act as the "first responsible person", and guard the "first checkpoint". The second is to provide administrative guidance. We have repeatedly discussed the "subsidy war" and "internal competition" of food delivery platforms, guiding the industry to return to rational competition. In response to emerging food safety issues, we will continue to move the checkpoint forward and provide administrative guidance to food delivery platforms, requiring them to establish strict network access review and dynamic management mechanisms to prevent food safety risks. The third is to promote regulatory systems. Publish and implement the "Regulations on the Supervision and Management of the Implementation of Food Safety Main Responsibility by Online Catering Service Operators", targeting the characteristics of cross regional, virtualization, and long chain of online catering, to strengthen the "protective net" for illegal and irregular punishment, and further improve the platform's food safety system for takeaway. Focusing on risk prevention and control, building a new supervision and inspection system. In 2025, the State Administration for Market Regulation will closely monitor two types of entities: food delivery platforms and food delivery merchants, and establish a three-dimensional supervision system of "special sampling+full coverage inspection+national level spot check" to enhance the governance efficiency of platform food delivery. According to the relevant person in charge of the State Administration for Market Regulation, it mainly manifests in three aspects: firstly, conducting special spot checks. On the basis of completing the supervision and sampling of 2149 batches of catering takeout at this level, the State Administration for Market Regulation has carried out special sampling for non dine in takeout with high food safety risks, with a total of 184 batches sampled, to strengthen the risk warning of platform takeout food safety. The second is to carry out full coverage inspections. Issued the "Work Plan for Supervision and Inspection of Food Safety in Platform Takeout", deployed local market supervision departments to carry out a special inspection for 9 months, conducted on-site inspections of 1.4136 million takeaway merchants, ordered rectification of 77600, ordered closure of 723 businesses, filed 16566 cases, and fined 17.7099 million yuan; Urge food delivery platforms to conduct 1.3838 million online self inspections and 158400 offline food delivery merchants. Thirdly, conduct national level spot checks. Adopting the "General Administration's spot check+provincial cross check" model nationwide, 11 spot check teams were formed to conduct special spot checks on 16 provinces using the "four no's and two direct" method. A total of 25 food delivery platforms and 190 food delivery merchants were spot checked, and 582 problems were found. The local market supervision departments have all verified and dealt with them. Focusing on key areas, innovate new regulatory governance model. In 2025, the Market Supervision Administration will focus on the pain points of food delivery without a meal, expand the application scenario of "Internet plus regulation", pool the joint efforts of social governance, and create a comprehensive governance model of "combination of points and areas". According to the relevant person in charge of the State Administration for Market Regulation, it mainly manifests in three aspects: firstly, promoting the pilot work of comprehensive management of dine in takeout. Guide Zhejiang to create a "six unifications" model area for dine in food delivery, promote the "management+merchant" group based autonomous model, promote the transformation of dine in food delivery from "low and scattered" to "standardized and centralized", introduce the "Management Standards for dine in food delivery gathering areas", and improve the standardized management level of dine in food delivery. The second is to promote the "Internet plus+Bright Kitchen" from pilot to large-scale and standardized. Guide local market supervision departments to promote takeout merchants step by step, and show the key links of catering food processing in real time through video live broadcast and other forms. At present, more than 450000 takeout merchants across the country have completed the construction of "Internet plus+Kitchen", of which nearly 80% of takeout merchants in Shanghai have achieved "Internet plus+Kitchen", and the "online+offline" collaborative supervision model has gradually taken shape. The third is to promote the pilot work of hiring online delivery personnel as food safety supervisors. Build a three-level organizational structure of "industry party committee enterprise branch mobile party group", and select and hire more than 8000 food safety supervisors. Build an efficient mechanism for intelligent empowerment and collaborative disposal, establish a closed-loop workflow of "discovery reporting disposal feedback incentive", upload more than 8000 risk problem clues, promote the rectification of more than 7000 illegal takeaway merchants, and gradually form a collaborative governance mechanism for food safety in online catering.
