The safty of Yiwu Agricultural Products Trade City food
As one of Zhejiang Province’s largest agricultural and sideline products distribution centers, Yiwu Agricultural Products Trade City distributed hundreds of tons of and hundreds of thousands of types of foods to every corner of China, and so food safety of the market becomes a spotlight of the media. Recently, it is learned that Yiwu Agricultural Economy Development Co., Ltd. has upgraded its “Management and Control Level” in an all-round manner as well as establish a long-term and normal work mechanism, implying that the protection to food safety has been further intensified.
In China, Yiwu None-staple Food Market firstly implemented the “1311 Food Access Project”, which is made up of one commodity access management system,it will get three certificates (business license, production permit, and single commodity inspection report),and then given one commodity certificate proof card, and one remark label. At the special commodity access office, 15 workers are responsible for the whole-process verification to certificates of commodities of all kinds in the non-staple market. In light of the food access system’s requirements, operation households, prior to marketing of new products, shall spontaneously come to the access office to offer three certificates (business license, production permit, and commodity inspection report). After that, the safety information clerk will input relevant materials into the commodity access management system, as well as paste the printed Certificate Proof Card in operation households’ respective booth access column.
“Such an action will enable purchasers to clearly learn about the food source and safety, and the proof card will help guard against the circulation of those unbranded and dateless products by nameless factories”, it is said that Each day, food safety clerks will conduct patrol inspection, spot check and identity check to 200-odd booths in their responsible zone. Since the inspection is directed, safety clerks assume definite responsibilities. In addition, they have much knowledge on every booth in the market, and so they can duly locate tiny problems and trace all commodities.
