A while ago, it also needed to suspend the food service due to the prevention and control of the epidemic.
China National Bureau of Statistics shows that throughout the year in 2021, the increase in revenue in the Chinese catering industry has increased by 6.1 percentage points in total retail sales of consumer goods, and revenue of 4.7 trillion yuan (RMB, Same as S $ 925.9 billion), an increase of 18.6%.However, this year's epidemic situation has risen, which has caused a blow to the catering industry again.
