【Message from the President】

Zhang Hailin, Henan Catering and Accommodation Industry Association:

"Carrying the weight forward" is the key word of Henan's catering industry in 2021, if the epidemic is well controlled in 2022, "Nirvana rebirth" will be the theme of the new year of the catering industry.

It is precisely because the catering consumption in the past two years is in a downturn, once the epidemic has passed, the public will open "compensatory consumption", and the friend gatherings, business banquets, and festival celebrations that have not been carried out because of the epidemic will be made up, and the catering economy will usher in rapid development in the future. The catering industry will use good dishes, environment and services to return the care and support of all sectors of society.
