California retail food

How it works

GovXprt helps you prepare a project packet. We do not issue permits. The owner files with the food authority.

1. 1

   Ask a question or create an account

   Ask a California food question with no account, or create an account when you are ready to start a project.

2. 2

   Start a project

   Choose the type of work and the facility location so the packet is locked to the food authority that applies.

3. 3

   Build the packet

   Upload the requested files on the project. Packet files stay with the project. Paid-review files stay with a paid review.

4. 4

   Run GovXprt Review

   GovXprt Review is an AI-assisted review of your current packet. It is not a food-authority review and not a permit.

5. 5

   Optional independent expert

   If you want a human, request a private-capacity independent expert. Conflict of interest is blocked. This is optional.

6. 6

   You file with the food authority

   The owner files. GovXprt does not issue permits, guarantee approval, or decide the outcome.

GovXprt is a private technology platform, not a government agency. Independent experts on the platform do not work for the food authority on the matter they review. Conflict of interest is blocked. GovXprt does not issue permits. The owner files with the food authority.
