For landowners and managers
What our course teaches vendors about approaching your location
If you manage a courtyard, forecourt, event space or vacant lot, you may occasionally be contacted by a mobile food vendor who has taken this course. This page explains what that process typically involves from our end, so you know what to expect and what questions a prepared vendor should be able to answer.
What we do not do
We are not a booking platform or a broker
Jorozi Baputi does not arrange pitch bookings, negotiate rent, or act as an intermediary between property owners and vendors. We are a course provider. What we teach is a method for evaluating whether a given spot, including one you might manage, is likely to support a mobile food operation.
If a vendor reaches out to you after completing our course, they are acting independently, not on our behalf, and any agreement about access, fees or scheduling is between you and them directly.
What a prepared vendor typically asks
Four questions our location module encourages vendors to bring to you
Available hours and days
Which days and time windows the space could realistically be used for a food vending pitch, including any restrictions tied to events or existing tenants.
Utility access
Whether electrical hookup or water access exists on site, and whether the vendor would instead rely on a generator or onboard tanks.
Terms of access
How fees, insurance requirements or liability arrangements would work, which is a discussion between you and the vendor rather than something our course sets.
Waste handling expectations
Where grey water and rubbish should be disposed of, since this is often a point of friction between property managers and mobile vendors if it is not agreed upfront.
Common questions
Frequently raised by property managers
No. Completing our course does not constitute certification, licensing or vetting of any kind. We teach a planning method; whether a specific vendor holds valid Sanepid approval or insurance for your site is a matter you would confirm directly with that vendor.
We do not participate in fee negotiations or act as an agent for either party. Our course does include a spreadsheet that helps vendors evaluate whether a given fee is workable against their expected daily revenue, but the resulting figure is theirs to bring to a conversation with you.
We do not provide leasing or access agreement templates. Those documents typically depend on local rules and the specifics of your property, and are better handled with your own legal advice or standard municipal forms where applicable.
Treat the conversation as you would any inquiry from an independent operator. You can ask to see their Sanepid documentation and any insurance they hold, and set your own terms for access, timing and fees, exactly as you would with any other vendor.
