Wholesale Foods
The Wholesale Manufactured Foods Program is dedicated to safeguarding public health by ensuring the safety and security of manufactured food products in Indiana. Our mission is achieved through a multifaceted approach encompassing the following key activities:
- Inspections: We conduct regular and thorough inspections of food manufacturing and distribution facilities. These inspections are designed to ensure that all operations comply with established food safety regulations and standards, thereby preventing contamination and ensuring only safe food products enter the marketplace.
- Consumer Complaint Investigations: We take consumer complaints seriously and investigate them promptly. By addressing these concerns, we can identify potential food safety risks and take corrective actions to prevent harm to consumers.
- Certificates of Free Sale: We issue certificates of free sale to businesses that demonstrate adherence to applicable rules and regulations. These certificates facilitate the export and domestic trade of food products, ensuring that only safe and compliant products reach the market.
- Consultation Services: We provide consultation and guidance to a wide range of stakeholders, including the public, industry professionals, and regulatory partners. Our consultations aim to promote best practices in food safety and manufacturing, helping to build a culture of safety and compliance within the industry.
By integrating these comprehensive activities, the Wholesale Manufactured Foods Program is committed to minimizing food safety risks, protecting public health, and ensuring that consumers have access to safe, wholesome food products.
Frequently Asked Questions
A separate kitchen or facility may be built in the home with an entrance leading directly from that room to the outside. A basement, converted garage or building not used for any other purpose may be an acceptable option. Building codes and zoning laws must also be considered. It is best to contact the wholesale food protection program to determine if your particular home design is acceptable.
An approved kitchen is a facility that is inspected by either the State Health Department or local health department and adheres to the Wholesale Food Code, if a wholesale facility, and the Retail Food Establishment Sanitation Requirements, if a retail facility. Food establishments that are both wholesale and retail must follow both sets of rules which are very similar.
The State of Indiana does not license wholesale food establishments. All wholesale facilities must register with this department using State Form 13054 at least 30 days prior to opening. This registration must be submitted along with any needed product testing, HACCP plan, and training documentation as needed. There is no fee involved with registration. If the facility changes location or changes ownership a new registration must be submitted reflecting the change.
It is not necessary for wholesale facilities to contact their local health department. However, if you intend to sell any of your products at retail, you must notify your local health department. They will provide the Retail Food Establishment Sanitation Requirements.

Wholesale Food and Beverage Supplies from the Top Restaurant Supplier
Restaurant consumables are the foods used to make all the menu items prepared in a commercial kitchen. These foods are the foundation of any foodservice business, and it’s important to keep an organized inventory of fresh, frozen, and dry goods. You’ll find all the ingredients you need in our selection of food and beverage items, including meats, dairy, fruits and veggies, spices, and cooking oils.
We know that busy kitchens rely on prepared foods to cut down on prep time and get orders out fast, especially during breakfast and lunch. Bulk liquid eggs, cheese, and butter help you prepare popular breakfast foods for the large crowds at your diner, hospital dining room, or school cafeteria. Our fried appetizers are economical, popular with customers, and can be prepared in a flash. Pre-made deli salads, soups, and sauces are a helpful addition that help you to fill in your menu with easy-to-prepare items.
Your menu is diverse and full of choices, so you also need access to the fresh foods that make your dishes stand out. Our fresh breads, sauces, desserts, and refrigerated meats are delivered fast so you can prepare for the weekend rush. Staples are important too, so keep your dry stock shelves filled with ingredients like canned foods, bulk spices, baking supplies, and condiments.
