Follow Hong Kong Investment Immigration and Hong Kong Life: The new fiscal budget for Hong Kong proposes to study the introduction of popular food trucks from abroad to facilitate outdoor dining for travelers. The Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development, Edward Yau, stated yesterday that the initial concept is to allow food trucks to operate at designated locations, and it is hoped to encourage young people to start their own businesses.

The Financial Secretary of Hong Kong, John Tsang, recently stated that he has requested the relevant departments of the Hong Kong government to expedite the implementation of suggestions to facilitate the operation of outdoor eateries by the industry and to study the introduction of popular food trucks from abroad to Hong Kong. This move will allow travelers to enjoy food outdoors while appreciating the scenery of Hong Kong.
Hong Kong street vendors need to obtain a street vendor license, but the current street vendor license policy does not apply to food trucks. The Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development, Edward Yau, stated yesterday that in order to expedite the plan, he hopes to conduct trials for food trucks without needing to amend the legislation, such as issuing food factory licenses, but at that time, food trucks can only operate at designated locations.
