What is the difference between a Mobile Retail Food License and a Temporary Retail Food License?
The main difference between the two is that mobile establishments have to meet more stringent guidelines as they may be operational all year round, whereas a temporary booth may only set up for one event for one day each year- thus the lower standards for them-especially concerning equipment. In addition, mobile units are allowed to operate at multiple locations, whereas the temporary booth may only set up as part of an organized event (a temporary vendor cannot sell 5 days a week on the corner for example).
