In partnership with Health First Indiana and Purdue University, the Indiana Department of Health is proud to publish the Indiana Home-Based Vendor Handbook.
With the integration of academic resources and state laws, this handbook is intended to serve as a guide to identify food products that can be safely prepared and sold within the State of Indiana under Home-Based Vendor (HBV) Regulations. If you have questions about product allowance, please contact your local health department, or questions may be submitted to the IDOH retail food program by emailing retailfoodprogram@health.in.gov. You may submit questions related to product formulation, testing and potential projects to the Food Entrepreneurship and Manufacturing Institute (FEMI) by emailing femi@purdue.edu.
