(河北够派宠物食品有限责任公司) |\n| Founded | 2004 |\n| Business scope | cat/dog food; pet-food processing and contract processing |\n| Channels | 10+ brands online and offline |\n| Violation | 10 batches / 584 bags of freeze-dried small-pack pet feed produced **2025-01-01 to 2025-05-28** not quality-inspected |\n| Products | probiotic cat food, fish-oil cat food, etc. (with freeze-dried small packs) |\n| Production dates | 2025-02 to 2025-05 |\n| Concurrent compliance | 200 batches of compound pelleted feed tested in the same period |\n| Trigger | consumer complaint via mayor's hotline on 2 popular products |\n| Inspection | Xingtai Agriculture & Rural Bureau (邢台市农业农村局) on-site check **2025-05-28** |\n| Interview | **2025-06-10** (e-commerce company legal rep + lab technician) |\n| Correction order served | **2025-06-10** (same day) |\n| Re-check | **2025-07-08** — confirmed self-inspection per batch from 2025-05-29 |\n| Penalty decision | **2025-09-18**, Xingtai Agriculture & Rural Bureau |\n| Fine | **CN¥15,000** (1.5 万元) |\n| Applicable law | Feed and Feed-Additive Regulation Art. 40 + Hebei discretion benchmark |\n| Legal basis | Pet Feed Management Measures Art. 6 |\n| Circumstance | \"timely correction\" (及时改正) → lighter penalty tier |\n\n## Core legal basis: GB/T 31216-2014 + GB/T 31217-2014\n\nThe enforcement authority's key legal finding:\n\n> \"添加冻干物质后的产品因材料变更需重新认定批次并实施出厂检验。\" — *After freeze-dried material is added, the product requires batch re-classification and ex-factory inspection due to the material change.*\n\nThat is, freeze-dried material is a **material change** (重大配方变更) requiring a full new-batch ex-factory inspection; the original batch's self-inspection record cannot be inherited.\n\nThis is one of the largest differences between Chinese pet-food recall/penalty regulation and the EU/US:\n- **EU (Reg 2019/626)** emphasises batch retention samples + microbiological indicators\n- **US (FSMA)** emphasises HACCP + recall plans\n- **CN** specifically mandates re-inspection triggered by formula change under Pet Feed Management Measures Art. 6\n\n## Industry macro background\n\nIndustry data disclosed in the case (source: 2025 China Pet Industry White Paper (中国宠物行业白皮书)):\n\n| Indicator | Value |\n|---|---|\n| 2024 urban (dog+cat) consumption market size | **> CN¥300 billion** (突破 3000 亿元) |\n| Food market share | **52.8%** |\n| Jiangsu consumer council survey — quality instability share | **48.85%** |\n| Jiangsu — pets with no abnormality after eating | only **25.57%** |\n| Jiangsu — reduced appetite | **39.45%** |\n| Jiangsu — coat problems | **30.29%** |\n| Jiangsu — skin allergy | **27.27%** |\n\nA **2025 reply letter from the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs (农业农村部)** clarified the two-department (MOA + State Administration for Market Regulation) coordinated regulatory path:\n\n1. **MOA**: production-licence system for domestic pet-feed producers + import-registration system for overseas pet feed + feed quality-safety oversight (supervisory sampling, routine monitoring, risk early-warning, on-site inspection)\n2. **State Administration for Market Regulation**:\n   - already approved **5** pet-food national standards (dog food, irradiation sterilisation process, drug-residue test methods, etc.)\n   - organising **2** mandatory national standards: *Pet Food Hygiene Standard* (《宠物食品卫生标准》), *Pet Feed Labelling* (《宠物饲料标签》)\n   - organising **2** recommended national standards: *Dog Nutritional Requirements* (《犬营养需要》), *Cat Nutritional Requirements* (《猫营养需要》)\n\n## Comparison with existing recall database\n\n| Dimension | US Midwestern Pet Foods 2021 aflatoxin | EU RASFF 2024 Salmonella | **CN Hebei Guopai 2025-09 freeze-dried not inspected** |\n|---|---|---|---|\n| Trigger type | voluntary recall | RASFF border rejection | consumer complaint → administrative penalty |\n| Regulator | FDA CVM | EU Member State authorities | Xingtai Agriculture & Rural Bureau |\n| Amount | N/A (voluntary) | N/A | CN¥15,000 (1.5 万元) |\n| Key defect | aflatoxin over-limit | Salmonella detected | **formula change not re-inspected** |\n| Warning type | acute toxin risk | microbial risk | **process-compliance risk** |\n\n## Source\n\n`pdf-raw/cn-recalls/guopai-15000-fine-20250918.html` (Southern Plus (南方+) full news text, 16,823 bytes, Tavily extract backup 2026-07-21).
