Food Safety Compliance
Food businesses using Cookaborough are required to comply with applicable food safety regulations in their State or Territory.
Food Standards
We require everyone using the Cookaborough platform to comply with food safety standards applicable to their specific food business. This means complying with legislation in the Australian and New Zealand Food Standards Code (FZANZ) and also with the Food Act in their relevant State or Territory.
Registered Kitchens
Whether kitchens preparing the food for sale are fully commercial kitchens or home-based businesses, they must be registered with a permit to operate from the relevant Food Authority or Council to sell food through Cookaborough. Cookaborough verifies these permits prior to launching a menu then ongoing annually.
Preparing Food Safely
In order to sell food through Cookaborough, the business must meet the required Food Safety competencies for their business type and number of employees in their State or Territory. Cookaborough verifies this prior to the launch of a menu and we verify expiry dates annually.
Labels, allergens and dietaries
When you browse an item on a menu, you will see all its ingredients and any allergens. Dietary categories also help you identify the most appropriate choices for you and your household.
Your food comes with labels which identify accurate ingredients, allergens, preparation and storage instructions, so you can rest assured that the label is accurate for the meal you are about to enjoy.
