Food service guidelines for exhibitors

For the Safety of our Guests

The DECC is the exclusive supplier of food and beverages to all guests of the facility.

The DECC is a licensed food service operator by the Minnesota Department of Health. All other exhibitors and show producers need to obtain a valid special event license for sample foods in the DECC facility or DECC property.

Guidelines for Exhibitors

• The Duluth Liquor Code dictates that no exhibitor may distribute or offer a sample size of an alcoholic beverage to its customers.

• Exhibitors may not bring in their own food or beverage for the purpose of attracting customers to their booth. They may purchase, in advance, items for give-away from the DECC Food Service Department.

o Examples include but are not limited to: popcorn, pastries, coffee, salsa, etc.

Exceptions to Guidelines

• Candy jars are acceptable.

• Exhibitors may distribute food or non alcoholic beverage samples to their customers if that exhibitor is specifically exhibiting those food and beverage items that pertain to their business.

o Example: an ice cream company may distribute sample size ice cream serving to demonstrate their product.

o This exemption does not apply to any alcoholic beverage.

• An exhibitor who is not able to leave his/her booth unattended to take a meal break may discreetly furnish his/her own “brown bag” lunch or refreshments.

Not following the guidelines listed above will result in removal of unlicensed food and beverage products.
