Risks exist anywhere along the food supply chain; however, the vast majority of negative safety outcomes occur during the handling, preparation, storage, retail and vending of food, and disposing of waste. This study examined the food safety standards followed by street-food vendors in two large cities of India, Hyderabad and Delhi in 2017 after the introduction of the Food Safety and Standards Rules. A survey was conducted in different socioeconomic groups among 200 street-food vendors to understand the compliance and practice of food safety standards in India. Only about one-third of the street-food vendors had registered to run food-vending shops, and most street-food vendors are not following basic food safety principles like wearing apron, access to tap water, were not able to use soap for cleaning utensils, and many did not have refrigerators to store food. The results show that vendors in high-income localities with higher education levels and duly registered were following more safety standards. From a policy perspective, the results show that India’s food safety standards are on a par with those of most developed countries, but that their actual implementation by street-food vendors is not duly assured. To avoid this situation, an exchange of experiences between street-food vendors and consumers should be promoted. “Clean street-food clubs” should be encouraged as one mechanism to recognize street vendors’ needs and to learn from consumers’ demands, so that the awareness of street-food vendors towards food safety standards is strengthened.

印度食品安全标准的驱动因素:从街头食品摊贩的行为和态度中学习

食品供应链的任何地方都存在风险;然而,绝大多数负面安全结果发生在食品的处理、准备、储存、零售和自动售货以及废物处理过程中。本研究调查了 2017 年在引入食品安全和标准规则后,印度两个大城市海得拉巴和德里的街头食品摊贩所遵循的食品安全标准。对 200 名街头食品摊贩的不同社会经济群体进行了一项调查,以了解印度食品安全标准的合规性和实践情况。只有大约三分之一的街头食品摊贩注册经营食品自动售货店,而且大多数街头食品摊贩没有遵守基本的食品安全原则,例如穿着围裙、使用自来水、无法使用肥皂清洁餐具,许多人没有冰箱来储存食物。结果表明,在高收入地区,受教育程度较高且已正式注册的供应商遵循更多的安全标准。从政策的角度来看,结果表明印度的食品安全标准与大多数发达国家的食品安全标准相当,但街头食品摊贩的实际执行并没有得到充分保证。为避免这种情况,应促进街头食品摊贩和消费者之间的经验交流。应鼓励将“清洁街头食品俱乐部”作为识别街头摊贩需求和了解消费者需求的一种机制,从而增强街头小吃摊对食品安全标准的意识。结果表明,在高收入地区,受教育程度较高且已正式注册的供应商遵循更多的安全标准。从政策的角度来看,结果表明印度的食品安全标准与大多数发达国家的食品安全标准相当,但街头食品摊贩的实际执行并没有得到充分保证。为避免这种情况,应促进街头食品摊贩和消费者之间的经验交流。应鼓励将“清洁街头食品俱乐部”作为识别街头摊贩需求和了解消费者需求的一种机制,增强街头小吃摊对食品安全标准的意识。结果表明,在高收入地区,受教育程度较高且已正式注册的供应商遵循更多的安全标准。从政策角度来看,结果表明印度的食品安全标准与大多数发达国家的食品安全标准相当,但街头食品摊贩的实际实施并没有得到充分保证。为避免这种情况,应促进街头食品摊贩和消费者之间的经验交流。应鼓励将“清洁街头食品俱乐部”作为识别街头摊贩需求和了解消费者需求的一种机制,增强街头小吃摊对食品安全标准的意识。结果表明,印度的食品安全标准与大多数发达国家的食品安全标准相当,但街头食品摊贩的实际执行情况并没有得到充分保证。为避免这种情况,应促进街头食品摊贩和消费者之间的经验交流。应鼓励将“清洁街头食品俱乐部”作为识别街头摊贩需求和了解消费者需求的一种机制,增强街头小吃摊对食品安全标准的意识。结果表明,印度的食品安全标准与大多数发达国家的食品安全标准相当,但街头食品摊贩的实际执行情况并没有得到充分保证。为避免这种情况,应促进街头食品摊贩和消费者之间的经验交流。应鼓励将“清洁街头食品俱乐部”作为识别街头摊贩需求和了解消费者需求的一种机制,增强街头小吃摊对食品安全标准的意识。
