If your community group is running a fundraising sausage sizzle you will need to notify us.
A simple sausage sizzle is limited to the sale of sausages and/or onions in bread with sauce only, as this food is considered to be Class 4.
You can tell us about your sausage sizzle by notifying through the Statewide database - FoodTrader.
You will need to tell us your:
-
Community or not for profit group details
-
Contact name and telephone number
-
Food handling knowledge and understanding
-
When, where and how you will be selling the sausages.
There is no fee required for the Notification of a Temporary Food Premises and you only need to notify us once.
If you have previously notified us of a sausage sizzle and your contact details have not changed and you are simply advising us of another trading event or site, you can contact us, or lodge a Statement of Trade through FoodTrader.
If you are selling food, other than sausages, for example: hamburgers, vegi burgers, bacon and eggs sandwiches or pancakes you will need to apply to register a temporary food premises, as this food will be classified as either Class 2 or Class 3.
If you are conducting a sausage sizzle at one of the Bunnings sites
within the City of Greater Geelong, we do not presently require a notification
through FoodTrader. Bunnings advise us of the groups that are attending their
sites and this is currently sufficient to ensure food safety requirements.
What we will do
There is no longer a need for a permit or registration certificate for simple sausage sizzles.
We will record the details of your Notification and acknowledge this through FoodTrader.
