To regulate the online catering service market and ensure public food safety, a special inspection team was recently formed in Yufeng District, Liuzhou City, Guangxi. The team, consisting of the district's Market Supervision Administration, the Public Security Bureau's Yufeng Branch, the Health Bureau, and the Commerce Bureau, conducted a joint enforcement inspection of online food service providers within the jurisdiction. The operation specifically targeted illegal activities such as "ghost kitchens."
The inspection focused precisely on the issue of "ghost kitchens," which has drawn strong public concern. It prioritized merchants on online food ordering platforms with abnormal license information or those operating as delivery-only without a physical dine-in space. The inspections were carried out unannounced, with officials going directly to the sites. They verified whether the license information of the online catering service providers matched their online listings and checked item by item if the business premises corresponded to the licensed address, if employees possessed valid health certificates, and if food business licenses were authentic and current. The inspection did not uncover any violations or illegal activities at this time.
