a logistics project that uses temperature control as the main method to keep the food within the required temperature and humidity range from after leaving the factory to before selling

2.2 handover

a link in the cold chain logistics process, including inbound handover, outbound handover, and distribution handover

3.1 It shall be equipped with cold storage, transportation tools that are

connected with cold chain food production and operation or other facilities and equipment that meet the requirements of cold chain food storage temperature and humidity. The facilities and equipment such as cold storage and transportation tools shall be equipped with temperature and humidity monitoring, recording, alarming, and regulating devices. The monitoring device shall be regularly checked and recorded. The facilities and equipment shall be easy to clean, disinfect, inspect and maintain.

3.2 The cold storage shall be equipped with a supporting refrigeration system

prevent food temperature from exceeding the specified range. If there is no closed platform, the compartment door shall be closed at any time between loading and unloading.

4.6 During the handover, check whether the ambient temperature of the

transportation tool meets the temperature control requirements. At the time of warehousing and delivery, it shall also check the entire temperature record. At the time of delivery and handover, it shall also record the temperature record in the warehouse. When the temperature or food condition is abnormal, it shall not be accepted.

4.7 When the food cold chain logistics is related to public health events, it shall
