Questions & Answers

What is the most common mistake new food startups make?

Failing to check if the kitchen fit-out matches AS 4674 (Design, construction and fit-out of food premises). Fixing plumbing or zoning errors post-construction is incredibly expensive.

Does this package guarantee we pass our council inspection?

We prepare your documents, train your staff, and audit your structure. If you follow the plan and maintain the logs we build, you will satisfy all council requirements.
