Whether you are planning a wedding, family reunion, or holiday party, make sure your family and guests are safe during your next big event by hiring a licensed caterer. Food that is not properly prepared, transported, and served can lead to food poisoning (technically called foodborne illness) - an unhappy ending to any special event.
Requirements
Licensed caterers must:
Have a catering permit that is separate from their restaurant permit
Prepare food in a kitchen that is approved and regularly inspected by the Snohomish Health District
Be trained to handle food safely
Have the proper equipment to prepare and transport food safely
Additional Information
For questions on whether a caterer is permitted, please contact the Food Safety Program at 425-339-5250.
