Must Ask Food Vendor Application Questions
- What is your business name, legal entity type, and primary contact details?
This verifies permits and insurance and makes your contract accurate. It also speeds onboarding by building a reusable profile, especially if you also complete the Vendor profile form.
- What menu items will you serve, including common allergens and vegetarian/vegan options?
Knowing your offerings prevents duplicate menus and helps us market a balanced lineup. Allergen details support signage and reduce risk for guests.
- Do you have current health department permits and liability insurance? List numbers, issuing agencies, and expiration dates.
These are required by most venues and municipalities. Clear details let us approve faster or flag what is missing.
- What are your booth or truck dimensions, power requirements (amps/volts and plug type), water needs, and generator use?
This information ensures safe placement and prevents power overloads. It also helps us assign spaces, plan load-in, and comply with fire codes.
- What is your expected service capacity (orders per hour), staffing plan, and POS/payment methods?
Capacity helps us set schedules and keep lines moving. Staffing and POS details show you can handle peak demand and minimize transaction delays.
