North Carolina regulates mobile food units under N.C.G.S. 130A-248 and 15A NCAC 18A .2600, requiring uniform statewide permits, commissary requirements, and inspections by local health departments.
N.C.G.S. 130A-248 authorizes the Commission for Public Health to adopt rules for food establishments including mobile food units. Rules in 15A NCAC 18A .2600 require an annual permit, an approved commissary base of operations, and compliance with the FDA Food Code as adopted by North Carolina. Inspections are performed by local environmental health specialists, but standards are uniform statewide. Mobile units that operate in multiple counties only need one permit recognized statewide for the operating year. Push carts and limited food service have separate categories.
Permit suspension or revocation; civil penalties up to $5,000 per violation under N.C.G.S. 130A-22; immediate closure for imminent health hazards
