Can I prepare food for sale in my domestic kitchen?
Generally no.
Food for sale can only be prepared on premises registered as Food Premises by the Council under the Food Hygiene Regulations 1974. These regulations provide that the premises must be used exclusively for the purpose of preparing food. A domestic kitchen does not meet this requirement as it can be used for other domestic purposes.
It may however be possible to have a Food Safety Programme approved by the New Zealand Food Safety Authority. Premises with an approved Food Safety Programme are exempt from the requirement to be registered under the Food Hygiene Regulations.
