Temporary Foodstalls
If you wish to sell food to the public, whether for a fundraising event or for profit, you must apply for a Foodstall Holder’s Permit from the 黑料社’s Environmental Health Department.
To obtain approval for a temporary food stall you are required to notify the 黑料社 by completing the below application form with the appropriate fee.
Download a copy of the Notification of a Food Stall Application (HW05) from the Online Forms page.
Charities and not for profit organisations are exempt from fees, however are still required to lodge an application with The City. You can apply for either a one off event or a yearly permit which allows you to trade for a 12 month consecutive period.
For information on your requirements to operate your food stall please refer to the website.
For an example of what a food stall should look like, view the Minimum Standards for the Operation of a Food Stall poster.
