Community canteens should find a balance between public welfare and marketization

In recent years, a variety of community canteens serving residents have gradually emerged in many residential communities

In the highly market-oriented industry ecology, community canteens can be regarded as another form of innovation in "segmentation"

The multiple factors of urban residents' residential communityization, communityization, diversification and social aging have created a good external environment for the emergence of community canteens and ushered in a window period of rapid development

For example, the elderly are inconvenient to travel, and there is a strong demand for "resolving in the vicinity".

From the perspective of optimizing the requirements of public services, it is also urgent to extend the reach of small community canteens and benefit the people’s livelihood, so that the consumer demand of living in cities can be upgraded, which can not only realize "eat everywhere", but also "eat nearby" and "eat nearby".

Judging from the experience of some public service projects before, it is unrealistic and difficult to achieve comprehensive public welfare only by relying on public finances or social donations; and taking the road of pure marketization is in line with the existing marketization.

There have been many successful experiences in this area.
