About this event
Brought to you by INNOVATE Hawaii (HTDC), this series of webinars and workshops is designed to help Hawaii’s businesses get started with their online business or enhance their e-commerce and digital marketing initiatives.
Do you know about the regulations associated with selling products online locally and to the continental United States? Join us on Monday, April 4 at 9AM to learn from Certified Food Scientist Dr. Lauren Tamamoto who will discuss local and federal laws associated with selling packaged food items online and identify label requirements for products sold in certain states (primarily California) to help you determine if your food production adheres to safety regulations. She will also provide a brief overview of the Food Safety Modernization Act and how procurement of packaging and ingredients may affect your products and documentations.
Please register by Sunday, April 3 at 5pm. After registration closes, we will send a Zoom link to all registered participants. If you face difficulties with registration, please contact Olivia at olivia@htdc.org.
The first three Hawaii-based manufacturers who register for the webinar will receive a complimentary hour of consulting with Dr. Lauren Tamamoto!
