Advice from the FSA if you intend to start selling food.

Thinking of starting your own food venture 🍴?

Whether it's from a cozy corner of your home, a bustling food truck, or through social media, registering your food business is the first step towards turning your culinary dreams into reality.

If your business involves selling, cooking, storing, handling, preparing, or distributing food directly to consumers, it's essential to register with your local authority. From customer-facing premises to online shops, every food business must comply with food safety and hygiene regulations to ensure consumer safety and trust.

Start planning today and use our comprehensive checklist to navigate the essentials before you embark on your food business journey. Don’t forget, registration is free, and you must do it at least 28 days before you begin trading. This not only legitimises your business but also ensures you're on the right track for a successful launch.

For those operating from home or considering childminding alongside food service, specific guidelines ensure you meet food safety standards right from your first food hygiene inspection to delivering meals safely to your customers.
