Temporary and mobile food operators

Anybody wanting to operate a mobile food van or temporary food premises must be registered with Streatrader and fill out an online application form.

Streatrader

Streatrader is a website that allows statewide registration and notification of temporary/mobile food premises, private drinking water carters and food vending machines. The statewide registration applies to all businesses, community groups and not-for-profit organisations.

How to register

Go to Streatrader website at least two weeks prior to conducting an event. You will need to create your login (unless you already have one, in which case you just simply fill in your username and password). Once your login details are complete, you will automatically enter the Streatrader website. Streatrader will guide you through the process until you're ready to hit the lodge button.
