In China, whether it is a local health product or an imported health product, if it is to be circulated in the Chinese market, it must have a “blue hat” logo. The blue hat product is a health food mark approved by the State Food and Drug Administration. It is a special mark for Chinese health food. It is sky blue and has a hat shape. The industry is commonly known as “blue hat”, also known as “little blue hat”. It is very difficult for enterprises to obtain this blue hat certification. Enterprises not only need to submit basic materials about products and enterprise qualifications, but also provide relevant certificates of product quality, safety reports and other documents. Industry insiders shared that the “blue hat” certification registration cycle for a single product is about three to four years, and the investment for each single product is about several hundred thousand yuan. Because the blue hat certification has high requirements for the production workshop of the enterprise and the professional requirements of production. Generally, only professional pharmaceutical companies have the ability to apply for this certification. Few companies in the food industry can obtain this certification. In short, the fact that an enterprise can obtain the blue hat certification is a manifestation of its professional ability.
