Recently, a netizen posted that a reminder board was placed on the table in the outside area of a Cudi Coffee store to remind people to sit in and consume.

The picture accompanying the post shows that the sign reminds guests to scan the code and order, attaches the QR code of the Mini programs, and also informs customers that they are not allowed to bring another brand of coffee to their seats, and puts a ban symbol on the brand logo of the opposite home. The practice of "naming" customers not allowing them to carry competitors 'drinks immediately triggered discussions among onlookers.

In the eyes of some people, the practice of explicitly requiring customers to enter stores not to bring drinks from other brands will inevitably be seen as a targeted exclusion of competitors. They feel that the billboards displayed in stores will give people the impression of a "overlord clause" and may cause damage to the brand image.

In addition, some people pointed out that it is reasonable for business establishments to require consumption to sit in, but prohibiting customers from carrying a certain brand of drinks may be suspected of excessively advocating business autonomy, and may also violate the Consumer Rights Protection Law and the Measures for Punishment for Infringement of Consumer Rights and Interests."Operators are not allowed to use format clauses to exclude or restrict relevant provisions on consumer rights.

But on the other hand, many netizens support the store's practices and bluntly say that it is not excessive for merchants to ask customers entering the business premises for consumption and seating. The stipulation that prohibits customers from carrying competing products is beyond reproach. They believe that both buyers and sellers have the right to freely choose,"Consumers can choose whether to enter the store and pay, and merchants can also choose their own service objects."

Moreover, many netizens said that if someone enters the store with drinks from other brands for a long time, it may cause trouble to the customers who actually pay. The drink cups left in the store when leaving will need to be cleaned by the clerk, which will increase the staff. Clear the burden.

Therefore, most netizens who recognized this practice admitted that they could understand the original intention of putting up signs at Cudi stores and generally believed that the requirements made by merchants for customers entering the store were reasonable,"I don't think it's a problem","Opening a store to do business is not a charity. People who don't spend to occupy seats but want to spend will have no place to sit","Very good, this is originally the rights of merchants."

As public opinion increased, this topic once appeared on hot searches, attracting more attention. On December 5, a reporter from "Jingshi Live" tried to contact the poster and asked for the specific store information of Cudi Coffee to which the warning board involved belonged, but did not receive a response.

On December 6, a media reporter called the Kudi Coffee official about this matter. Relevant staff responded that the company had not received any notice that stores needed to use such warning signs, nor had it issued relevant materials, nor had it mandatory that customers should not bring other brands of drinks into stores for consumption. The staff member also told reporters that the matter would be reported back to relevant departments for verification. If consumers encounter similar situations, they can call the official service hotline to report.
