Some of our vendors already possess city, county and state business permits – but many do not. Fortunately, we are authorized to issue temporary permits onsite so that you can legally operate. Keep in mind that it may actually be cheaper for you to obtain permanent licenses than paying the temporary permits each day you vend. For example, if you have sales of $3,000 – $10,000 each year then you are only required to have a minimal use business license, which is $15 for the year. You can view the external links on the bottom of this page for information on how to obtain these licenses.
