David Crabill replied to the topic Question about free samples of a non-PHF (coffee) brewed to order for sampling in the forum Tennessee 8 years, 7 months ago

You should contact the ag dept to learn about the rules for selling prepared coffee.

Most people apply for a business license as a sole proprietor and get a Fictitious Business Name, also known as a Doing Business As (DBA). You will need to contact your county offices to learn what’s required in your area.
