Congratulations on your new food brokerage in Aberdeen! Brokering lets you work in the food industry without owning trucks, warehouses, or inventory, so startup costs stay low. Below we walk through the three things every new business in Washington sorts out (structure, tax IDs, and licenses) and then sum it all up.
By the numbers: Banks, insurers, and tax forms will ask for your industry code. For a food brokerage it is NAICS 425120 (Wholesale Trade Agents and Brokers). That makes 4 items on your list.
Tip: Attend regional food trade shows to meet both producers looking for representation and buyers looking for new products.
