The Food Act 1984 requires all businesses that handle, prepare, package, store, serve, supply and repackage food to be registered with their local council.
The type of registration that is required for your business will depend on the nature of your food business, what type of food you are handling and to whom the food is being served or sold.
Class 4 premises are those that only retail pre-packaged, low-risk foods, and have certain other low-risk or occasional activities.
