You need to start by contacting your city's licensing department. From here you'll need to request any information in relation to licenses and permits that are required to sell food on the street. Whatever kind of business you are operating, if it involves selling food on the street then this is the step you're going to have to take. You need to tell the department precisely what kind of business you are operating and what you intend to do so that they are able to give you all of the correct information to go about getting the right licenses and the right permits.

Other resources could also include the local Chamber of Commerce. This can assist you with information in regards to any other requirements.

You then need to secure and obtain all of the forms for the application of the license, and then depending on the kind of street bending license you're trying to obtain, you'll also need to get the right forms for the applications of various permits - from either the city of state department. So for instance, if you want to own a hot dog stand on the street, you'll need to apply for the right license as well as permits from your local or state health department. You'll also need to have a food handler's card for most areas.

Then secure your own liability insurance, and ensure you have some copies that are available as proof. You also need all your tax data to submit to the city when applying, like any tax identification numbers provided by the Internal Revenue Service.

Finally, check for any fees and make a check payable to the appropriate departments. Then you need to submit the money and the completed application packets to the right departments.
