Due to the impact of COVID-19，the revenue of the catering industry in Guangdong saw negative growth for the first time in 2020. The total annual revenue was 412.476 billion yuan，a year-on-year decrease of 18.247 billion yuan，a decrease of only 4.2%. The number of existing enterprises fell by nearly 70，000 over the previous year，a decrease of 7%. Guangdong’s share in the national catering industry accounted for more than 10% again，reaching up to 10.4%. The share of catering in total retail sales of consumer goods in Guangdong continued to climb to 10.3%. Even under the severe influence of COVID-19，the catering industry，with the experiential consumption attribute，still acted as a driving force for offline commercial consumption，attracting a wide range of consumers to come to the shop for consumption，driving and activating more related consumption，and playing an important role in restoring consumer confidence and boosting market activity. The high-quality development plan of “Guangdong Cuisine Master” project has been formally implemented，in which 49 specific measures have been established in terms of the four major systems of talent，industry，standard and culture. Guangdong’s catering industry has carried out a lot of fruitful work in curbing catering waste and promoting the construction of civilized restaurants. During the period of epidemic containment，social organizations in Guangdong’s catering industry actively defended the rights and interests of the industry，actively carried out activities for self-support and self-help，and gathered the strength of the industry to tide over the difficulties together. The food connotation and industry extension of Guangdong catering has been redefined after the outbreak of COVID-19，and the charm，vitality and business style of Guangdong catering yield unusually brilliant results in front of the world！
