Planning your event

Can I sell food at my event?

Yes, but Food Safety laws will need to be complied with. Ensure that all food concessions/caterers are registered with a Local Authority as a food business operator. It is strongly recommended that organisers should check that all caterers have a food hygiene rating of 3 or above. This can be checked with the Food Standards Agency (opens in a new tab) 

A list of names, addresses, contact details and details of food hygiene rating of all food concessions (including those giving away food as part of a demonstration) should be provided to the Food safety team 21 days prior to the event.

Please see outdoor catering checklist and contact our Food safety team for advice: 01437 764551  foodsafety@pembrokeshire.gov.uk.

The sale of food or goods on the highway will need street Trading consent. Please contact our Streetcare team on 01437 765441 or streetcare@pembrokeshire.gov.uk
