The 12th session of the NPC Standing Committee proposed a revised draft food safety law, where the sale of food on the Internet must have physical stores and obtain business license, a move, it is estimated to be an uproar, those who just passed a gorgeous Christmas Taobao and other Third-party platform sellers, it is estimated that the next New Year's Day and the Spring Festival will not be cool. This "imperial decree" of the reverse day level and "one step Away" of the ugly degree is comparable to, to some extent completely with Ma Yun began to do Taobao's original intention of the contrary.

That year, MA started Taobao, just like a meteor across the lightning, since then illuminate the mortal "money". Many people open shop is because there is no strength to do physical stores, the cost of physical stores, as well as all kinds of mess of the license, and occasionally "check" is enough. Shop because there is no physical store of a variety of finished products, generally more than the real store cheaper, so consumers are drawing a cheap. Only a few years time, Taobao was born a millions rich, they have never thought of the real shop can also reach even beyond the physical store effect.

Now the policy mutation, these individual sellers, small scale, type Miscellaneous. Many are farmers, commuters or students. Most of them do not have physical stores, to obtain the QS certificate or food circulation permit, must be in the production site, production scale, management mode and other aspects of compliance with the relevant legal requirements, the cost of too much investment. The shop itself will need to pay the relevant costs, if you have to open the entity shop, get all kinds of documents. Costs are bound to rise in all areas. The prices that come with consumer purchases will also rise. The price is expensive, who still buys it online.

From the perspective of food safety, physical stores and owning a business license do not amount to food safety.

Many buyers on the internet, patterns, all varieties. such as private cake, homemade beef jerky, secret chili sauce and so on. These people operate in good faith, and have characteristics, and there is no various additives. Just start from Micro Bo, the circle of friends gradually fire up, word of mouth, just began to sell on Taobao. In the business qualification, there is generally no food production license, business license, etc. Some people can not reach the level of physical stores, some people are to make a little money, do not want to open a physical store.

And a lot of documents to complete the physical store is a variety of additives, plasticizer, a lot of substandard, the problem or problems, the reason that we all understand. The recent burst of American fast food giants of the bread contains chemical additives azo dimethyl amide, not to mention the Chinese noodle products, especially bakery products, the problem of abuse of additives more serious, and related food supervision also exists a vacuum. The loopholes in the monitoring of food safety can not be solved without physical stores and licenses.

According to the official statement, the sale of food online must have physical stores and obtain business license, the main role in these three aspects. First, it is convenient for customers to inquire about the credibility of operators. Second, if customers buy substandard food, facilitate the maintenance of rights and interests. Third, for the regulatory department, for counterfeit food cases will be more effective investigation and punishment. Targeted discussion:

1, the shop because has the comment system, easier to understand the merchant's credit degree. Generally speaking, the comment is more pertinent. If the quality is really bad, Taobao shopkeeper is also very difficult to do. and have a physical store is difficult to query business credit, at least the comments system this piece is most of the entity shop is difficult to do, always can not go to the physical store to buy things, first in the Industry and Commerce Department to check the credit degree again. Individual reputable entity stores are not discussed here.

2, if customers buy substandard food, now have the corresponding after-sales service and rights protection services, except for individual small sellers without integrity except. Generally speaking, rights protection is not too big problem, basically can do 7 days without reason to retreat or change. In particular, the Beijing-east, the cat is such a large electric quotient, rights protection is not a problem. On the contrary, many entities store rights and can not do very well.

3, now are real-name, if there is a problem, for the supervision and punishment, the impact is not too big, after all, most people do business is not to be investigated. There is a physical shop concerned department has inspected the nominal fine is more convenient.

It is true that food safety should be strictly regulated. Really want to restrain these three no products, directly with the major electric platform interview, let them through the technical level to restrain three products can not be sold on the line, why the big trouble. I am afraid that it is the guise of norms, added a process of collecting money. According to this so-called norms, the basic 99% of food related to the shop began to face new problems, MA also worry about trouble, a group of small shopkeepers are in the norms of "game over".

The mobile internet era has spawned diversified operations. Many people in micro-letters, micro-BO sell the wind, traditional food manufacturers and internet food sellers are two different ways, so the relevant regulatory departments should also keep pace with the times, can not remain in the old routine, or a pole policy. This has violated the nature of the market economy. How to solve food safety and rights protection issues, involving food production, circulation, network operations and other departments of the collective effort, the introduction of more reasonable relevant legislation, not a simple entity shop and business license can be rudely resolved.
