What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
I'm looking to start a business with a somewhat unique business model and I was hoping for some advice in terms of what I would need to start this business, other than just a business license.
The details: I plan to start a business which delivers bagels, donuts, and pastries to medium-sized businesses for sale on the premises via the honor system (a box with a payment slit in it). There is no cost to the business, transactions take place between my business and employees. So there is no "storefront," per se.
I'd buy a delivery van that can be driven with just a class C license.
I do plan to use my home for receiving the delivered baked goods, packing them up in the morning, and storage of any non-perishable inventory.
Q1 What permits will I need considering:
-Food handling but not manufacturing
-Food delivery
-Using my home as for the stated purposes above
-Anything unaccounted for given the circumstances I laid out
Q2 What inspections would be required?
Q3 What restrictions would there be regarding my home and the delivery vehicle? For example, would I have to outfit my home/vehicle somehow?
Thanks!
