Data basis for catering webshops

The following information does not constitute legal advice and may be incomplete, but is intended as a guide. Make sure you are also legally protected.

The legal requirements must be observed for web shops and other public offers. Many details can also be found elsewhere in this documentation, but not all requirements and variants can be covered here. Some key points, for voting:

The term remote communication technology

Remote communication technology: is any means of communication that can be used to conclude a contract between a consumer and a supplier without the simultaneous physical presence of the contracting parties."

  • In any case, our webshop falls under remote communication technology.

  • The SOT can also fall under remote communication technology, possibly with the option of booking self-collection. Of course, the installation location and the possible availability of service staff may play a role, but your legal advisor would have to judge this.

Requirements for the list of ingredients

In the EU, allergens must be clearly emphasised in lists of ingredients for products sold online. This concerns allergens such as cereals containing gluten, crustaceans, eggs, fish, peanuts, soya, milk (including lactose), nuts, celery, mustard, sesame seeds, sulphur dioxide and sulphites, sweet lupins and molluscs. Highlighting can be done by bold print, underlining or other visual means to ensure that consumers can easily recognise this information (source: IHK_DE).

The labelling of allergens serves to protect people with food allergies or food intolerances and is an important aspect of food safety in the EU. These regulations ensure that consumers receive the information they need to make informed decisions about the purchase and consumption of food.
