Food Act workshops for businesses

Get a better understanding of what to do

The free workshops help people understand what the Food Act 2014 means for their business, and work out what they need to do and when. They're your opportunity to speak to council and MPI representatives about any concerns – and to talk to other businesses.

Agenda

The agenda for each workshop follows the same outline:

• Introduction to the Food Act: This includes presentations by MPI and local council and a question session (50 minutes).
• Where do I fit? Check what type of regulation applies to you (10 minutes).
• Ask the experts: Ask about your specific business. Topics include using a written plan, getting registered, working with a national programme, or getting verified (1 hour).

At the end of the workshop you'll have the opportunity to test resources and give feedback.
