This is one of the better videos I've seen explaining some of the technical & specific details of what is needed to sell food out somewhere (such as a festival, etc). The other videos of other people just give generic information and say things like "check with your state government" or "check with your city". I say to these people, "Okay, but what specific DEPARTMENT do we contact in our state or city?". At least you give specific details about the subject you are talking about (the Health Dept). These other people don't give specific details and its frustrating. By the way, in my internet searches, I still haven't found what specific department I'm suppose to go to in order to be sure I'm doing everything legal. It's almost like its a secret...
What city and state are you in. Type in health inspection and your city. Also you can contact city hall also they will help you get in touch with the person. I found out almost any local city agency will help you get to the right people in chat. Thanks for the kind words. Let us know if you are unable to find the local health inspector we can help you with that. Thanks
@@MobileFoodBooth Okay, thanks. I really appreciate the advice.
I need to start this business,ok Im CHEFF KREYOL
Thanks for not including any useful links. What a pointless video
Yes every city has different health department and every state. Where are you located we can maybe help
So I need a tent? Is that a pop up canopy?
Yes that is a good place to start with a tent to to events, festivals and concerts.
Thank you sonmuch i am stressing so bad is my 1st event and i want to pass the inspection..
Me too! 😭
Do you know what the rules would be for using a large smoker for events?
You have to contact your local health department
Brother here is my situation, I’m trying to sell fruit cocktails in Farmer’s Markets in Nevada, and I don’t know if it’s me or if everything here is super complicated.
What should I do if I want to sell at different markets let’s say 5,6 days per week at DIFFERENT locations.
The temporary food permit allows me to use it for up to 14 days but at the same location. So how can I do that? How can I sell at different markets the same week. Do I need one permit per location? Because each one would be 130$ plus market fees…I’m definetly lost in the process but highly motivated.
I would pay for mentoring hours but this is really time sensitive…I’m doing this for my mom and me and I’m unemployed and we have to make this happen ASAP because we want it to be our full time occupation.
Thanks beforehand.
Hi thanks for the questions. Sorry we just saw it now. Yes we can help you. We can schedule a time to talk. I would recommend to focus on 1 and make it sustainable and profitable. Doing to many will actually be counter productive. Every health department is different with different rules. I am glad you are motivated let's look at the big picture and create a plan.
Great video very informative thank you for taking time to help everyone out with explaining this process.
does it have to be an event or festival
Do I also need to get a business license to start a mobile food trailer ?
Evidently he didn't care to answer!
Questions how do I fill out the commissary paper outnif I'm getting it from local Walmart or Sam's club etc
I am not sure you can use Walmart or Sam's. Your commissary kitchen should be a restaurant or a commercial kitchen. The product you buy you will list that on the suppliers. Let us know if you have more questions
Love your videos. Good info to know and should follow. Here is the but. Not festivals require health certificates. I do about 25 fest a year here in New Orleans and only one festival requires health department. Only two requests food handles training. Good or bad let the festival tell you what is required. And you right about only give the information they want don’t give more that just makes them ask more questions
Thanks Johnnie! Yeah it's different everywhere you go. They require a permit for each event here.
What about if you’re selling in front of a building that gives permission to sell food on their property?
Thank you!!!! 🫶🏽🥹
thank you so much for your knowledge in this matter, but I have a few questions. 1. how are you supposed to keep warm water coming out of your water to wash your hands. 1A. where are you getting water to refill? do you have to bring your own or should the place that you're vending from have access to water? 2. is when your bucket fills up with you washing your hands where are you supposed to dispose of it? It seems like you have to catch all of the nasty in the bucket but it's ok to just chuck that water somewhere?
Every event is different ask the organizers. Some have water some don't. One of the easy ways we found is to use a lard coffee pot from Sam's to heat the water. Yes unfortunately its more work and you have to catch the water. So be mindful of how much you use. Call your help department they can help you too
I’m so happy I came across your channel, THANK YOU
Is there a cost involved with these temporary permits?
Some counties charge a fee and some are free.
Whats up my man! Just found your Channel. Love all your stuff! Full of Information. Your thumbnails are fire!!

Thank you this is very helpful 👍

How to fill out mfe plan review questionnaire
Can you please elaborate on it, we will try to help
what would you suggest for sanitation? like would a hot plate work and electrical outlet in back up truck? but catching the water is where im lost ?
So a griddle or fryer can be used under a tent without exhaust or fire suppression?
Yes they can be used under a tent without a exhaust system.
Hi there, great video! I have a couple of questions. For a temporary food stand. Do you also need a seller's permit? and Does the health inspector show up on the day you start selling?
Hi, it all depends what city and state you are from. What type of operation do you have. If you can describe it. You would need to have a sales tax number and possibly others. Most bigger events an health inspector will be on site for inspection
If it's a small event or you are by yourself it is best to contact your local health inspector and ask them every place is a little different. Let us know
I live in Orange county, CA. I wanted to do a soft serve pop up stand. It would consist of 2 soft serve machines with a few generators, tables, a portable small refrigerator and a topping bar. We thought about getting a food truck and custom it but it's very expensive. The events we were thinking of doing is small crafts fair, farmers markets and maybe a existing retail space. For the existing space would be rented for 1 day. No renovation, just set up a stand. I will definitely contact the health department for more information. I love your video! I'll give you an update😁
I want to do 4 or 5 flavors of Lemonade will i need a stank with a sink
Yes you will need a sink or a 3 basin setup with a handwash station.
Will you be able to do a video on how you set up for an event to meet health code protocol?
Checkout my tip on setting up video.
Thank you so much for sharing this knowledge ❤
I appreciate this information given. I wanted to ask. Does this process need to be ventured if you're selling plates? Already cooked at home kinda thing.
You can prep food at your commissary
@@MobileFoodBooth Indeed. My lady and I cook a large variety. So for my new release music, I want to have plates at engagements, or offered for purchase. Is why i asked.
@@focusonchrist6752 that’s great! It’s just like catering a event.
@@MobileFoodBooth Indeed. Wanted to ensure legitimacy so no one can shut it down. Didn't know about permits or licensing for such engagements.
This sink requirement is a real buzzkill. I wanted to just serve Italian ice out of a cooler with dry ice and disposable cups but some of these portable sinks online are absurdity expensive
Just use 3 basin tubs. You don’t need to purchase a sink.
If you have a permit to do regular vending (hot dog cart) will you still need to get another HD permit?
It may be different in your area, but in Delaware you have to get a permit for each event that you plan to attend.
What’s the proper way of storing burgers and the cooking temperature requirements
Your going to need a refrigerator to store raw meat. Check with your local health department for storing temperature. About 165 degrees in the center is a well cooked burger.
Hello I wanted to know what all permits and licenses were needed to start a vending business at events
Business license and Health Permit
Thanks what do we say when they ask how we washing the food off can we say it has already been wash off at home
No you have to have a commissary.
What kind of vendor license do you need to operate a booth.
Business license and health permit
Is it possible to get a permanent permit for a hotdog cart?
yes
what if i have a location and i'm setting my tent there 3-4 days a week?
melo maf that’s fine, but get your health permit.
If you selling food on the outside what kind of license would I need
Contact your local health department every area is different
What if you dont have a sink...are there other options
yes use the 3 basin setup
Very good. A lot of what I wanted to know.
Very helpful! Thnx!
