"The qualifications are all very good, for example, I now sell this, there are manufacturers of goods distribution sheet, salt wholesale license, salt fixed production enterprise certificate, food circulation and sales license, business license, quality inspection report. "But when the salt people come to the store to check, they will not read these documents, but they will see that the salt will be taken away or not sold. People in salt industry also know that when they sell us, they will ensure that after checking, how much to fill up, or who will dare to sell.

For some time, the salt enterprises in the field will give a business card when they send salt. If their salt is taken away, contact the person in the business card and send them back.
