In view of this situation, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce revised the "Provisions on the Administration of Enterprise Name Registration (Draft for Review)", in line with the principle of supporting local large-scale enterprises and clear and quantitative standards, the above-mentioned conditions are revised to the name of the enterprise legal person that meets one of the following conditions, and can use the name excluding the whole district:

The name of the enterprise shall be titled with the name of the administrative division of the province (including autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government, the same below) or city (including prefectures, the same below) or counties (including municipal districts, the same below) where the enterprise is located.

Ha, the "health hall" you cited should belong to (2) a long-standing and well-known enterprise. The company with this name has nothing to do with its nature and registered capital, and the key is to be approved by the State Administration for Industry and Commerce.
