Food Business Basics: Permits, Kitchens, and Getting Started

Event description

Are you interested in starting a Farmers markets stand, temporary food events, food trucks and carts, but not sure where to begin? This free workshop will provide an introduction to the steps involved so you know what to expect before getting started.
We’ll walk through the essentials:

• permits and applications,
• commissary kitchen requirements,
• and the different ways you can sell your food: from farmers markets and events to carts and temporary events.

We’ll also share where to find reliable information, what resources are available to support you, and how to avoid common mistakes that can slow down your progress.

Hosted by Business Impact NW in partnership with Public Health – Seattle & King County (PHSKC), this session will connect you with business advisors who specialize in supporting new food entrepreneurs. Our goal is to give you a clear overview of the process, practical tools, and trusted connections to help you take your next step.

Whether you’re exploring an idea or already preparing to launch, this workshop will help you understand what’s required and how to move forward.

Notice: this workshop will be held via a virtual meeting on the Zoom platform.

Reasonable accommodation for persons with disabilities will be made if requested at least two weeks in advance. Contact coaching@businessimpactnw.org or call (206) 324-4330
