Livestock Products Distribution Seller Business Report

A business that commissions a livestock products processor or a meat packaging processor to process or package packaged meat, meat products, dairy products or egg products and then distributes and sells them under its own brand must file a report as a livestock products distribution seller, a type of livestock products sales business, with the si/gun/gu office where the business is located under Article 24 of the Livestock Products Sanitary Control Act, and the office must notify acceptance within 3 days of receipt. Under Annex 10 of the Enforcement Rule of the same Act, the business must have an independent office for its activities, a warehouse for hygienic storage of livestock products, and a permanent storage facility for returned and exchanged goods, and the operator must complete 6 hours of livestock products hygiene training before starting business. It is a separate business under a different law from the food distribution seller business under the Food Sanitation Act. A report cannot be filed for the same business at the same location within 6 months of a closure order, or for the same business while a suspension period has not ended.

Procedure

Procedure

  1. 01

    Confirm the business type: Check that the products are packaged meat, meat products, dairy products or egg products, and that the commissioned company holds the matching livestock products processing or meat packaging processing permit. Cutting or packaging the products yourself falls under a different business, such as meat packaging processing or meat sales.

  2. 02

    Prepare the office and warehouse: Set up an independent office, which may be shared with another business office if it does not interfere with operations. The warehouse may be located elsewhere or leased, and if there is no dedicated warehouse, part of the warehouse of the commissioned processor may be used under a use agreement.

  3. 03

    Check the facility layout and building: Designate a permanent storage space for returned and exchanged goods and mark it on the layout together with the warehouse location. Since the office checks the building ledger and land use plan electronically, confirm before signing the lease that the building use is suitable.

  4. 04

    Hygiene training and health checkups: Complete 6 hours of livestock products hygiene training before starting business. Persons who only store or sell fully packaged products are exempt from health checkups, but staff who open packages and handle products directly must have a health checkup before starting work.

  5. 05

    Submit the business report: File the business report with the facility description and layout, and a copy of the facility use agreement if leased, at the si/gun/gu office where the business is located. The office notifies acceptance within 3 days and issues a report certificate.

  6. 06

    Keep records after opening: When purchasing meat or packaged meat, record type, quantity, origin, traceability number and supplier in the transaction ledger and keep it for 1 year from purchase, and keep records of consumer complaints such as foreign matter reports for 2 years. File a change report or a suspension or closure report when reported details change or the business suspends or closes.
