Retail Food Application

Food Permit Applications

When you have completed the application package (or if you have questions), please call your nearest NMED Field Office for information or to set up an appointment to meet with one of our Environmental Specialists. We will review the package briefly with you to be sure information is complete and understandable. You will soon receive a letter indicating that your plans are approved, approved with conditions, or not approved. Your letter indicating approval or conditional approval will indicate what pre-opening inspections are required and when the permit fee is to be paid. Only after your application is approved or conditionally approved, may you begin construction of the physical facility. Any change orders require approval.
