An executive of a listed catering company said: "The total revenue of the catering industry has exceeded 5 trillion yuan, and it is becoming more and more important in the proportion of the entire consumption. As a basic livelihood security industry, the catering industry provides a large number of employment opportunities and has significant social value. In addition to the active adjustment and response of catering enterprises themselves, it is hoped that relevant support policies can be introduced and implemented, such as optimizing the business environment and stimulating market vitality. ”
