Arizona ARS 36-1761 permits cottage food operations statewide with annual gross sales up to $75,000. No local permits required from Marana. Products must be non-potentially-hazardous foods sold directly to consumers with proper labeling.
Under Arizona ARS 36-1761, cottage food operations are permitted statewide without a local health permit or commercial kitchen. Marana cannot impose additional local requirements beyond state law. Cottage food producers may sell non-potentially-hazardous foods such as baked goods, candy, jams, granola, dried fruits, and spice mixes directly to consumers at farmers markets, from the home, or online for local delivery. Annual gross sales may not exceed $75,000. Products must be labeled with the producer name, address, ingredients, allergen warnings, and the statement: 'This product was produced in a home kitchen that is not subject to food safety inspections.' Potentially hazardous foods requiring temperature control (dairy, meat, canned goods with low acid) are not permitted. No town business license is needed for cottage food sales, though TPT tax obligations may apply.
Exceeding $75,000 cap or selling prohibited foods: state enforcement. No local Marana penalties for standard cottage food operations.
