There is no clear legal requirement for the area of catering units. However, different types of catering units have great differences in the area when applying for catering service licenses, such as the use area of the business premises of super-large restaurants is more than 3,111 square meters, and the use area of the business premises of large restaurants is 511 square meters to 3,111 square meters. Let me introduce you to the area requirements of catering companies and related knowledge. Let's take a look.

1. Does the catering company have an area requirement? Actually, the fast food category in the catering service license does not specify the area in detail, but there are different categories in the catering service license. Restaurants, restaurants, restaurants, hotels, restaurants, etc., with meals (including Chinese food, western food, Japanese food, Korean food, etc.) as the main business items, are classified as follows: 1. The business area of super-large restaurants is over 3,111m2 (excluding 3,111m2), or the number of dining seats is over 1,111 (excluding 1,111). 2. The operating area of a large restaurant is 511m2~3111m2 (excluding 511m2 and including 311m2), or the number of dining seats is 251 ~1111 (excluding 251 and including 1111). 3. The business area of medium-sized restaurants is between 151m2~511m2 (excluding 151m2 and including 511m2), or the number of dining seats is between 75 and 251 (excluding 75 and including 251). 4, small restaurant business premises in the use area of 1.51 m2 (including 1.51 m2), or the number of dining seats in the following 75 (including 75) restaurants.
