Food Safety Program
The EH&S food safety program at Cal Poly Pomona helps protect the campus community from foodborne illness. EH&S oversees food-related activities on university property, including the permanent food establishments on campus.
The food safety program also encompasses all temporary food service events organized by student clubs, campus departments, etc. Booth operators selling or giving away food at public events on campus must apply for a Temporary Food Facility (TFF) permit, which will be reviewed by Cal Poly Pomona's Registered Environmental Health Specialist for a food permit for each event.
Important Note: Food Permit Applications must be submitted ten business days before the event date, or your event will not be approved. No Exceptions.
To ensure the public does not become ill from a food event on campus, a Temporary Food Facility Permit is required to operate a temporary food facility at Cal Poly Pomona. Internal office potlucks and invitation only events are generally excluded from these requirements because they are considered private.
