if you are only engaged in catering business, you don't need to file with the Ministry of commerce, as long as you have obtained legal business qualifications. If you want to engage in catering franchise business, it is best to file it with the Ministry of Commerce. Although it is not necessary, it is equivalent to increasing the credibility of brands and companies.
