Food enterprises are responsible for the food safety of their production and operation. Food producers and operators are also the first responsible persons for the food they produce. Only by legally ensuring that food producers and operators can produce and operate according to law, be honest and trustworthy, and assume due social responsibilities for food safety can we establish a long-term mechanism to ensure food safety.
China Food and Drug Administration said that food producers and operators need to clearly put forward the main responsibility requirements for food producers and operators: First, they should ensure that the food produced and sold meets the requirements of laws, regulations and food safety standards; Second, we must strictly abide by the prohibitive provisions of the Food Safety Law and other laws and regulations.
The state practices a licensing system for food production and marketing. Those who engage in food production, food circulation and catering services shall obtain food production licenses, food circulation licenses and catering service licenses according to law. A food producer who has obtained a food production license does not need to obtain a food circulation license to sell the food he produces in his production place.
A catering service provider who has obtained a catering service license does not need to obtain a food production and circulation license to sell its processed food in its catering service place; Farmers do not need to obtain food circulation permission to sell their own edible agricultural products.
