LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 2149, as amended, Gonzalez.
Food delivery platforms.
The California Retail Food Code (code) generally requires various businesses that prepare or otherwise provide food to the public to comply with uniform health and sanitation standards. The code defines “food facility” for its purposes as an operation that stores, prepares, packages, serves, vends, or otherwise provides food for human consumption at the retail level.
This bill would enact the Fair Food Delivery Act of 2020, to prohibit a food delivery platform from posting a menu of, or otherwise using the likeness, registered trademark, or any intellectual property belonging to, a food facility without the
express written consent of arranging for the delivery of an order from a food facility without first obtaining an agreement with the food facility expressly authorizing the food delivery platform to take orders and deliver meals prepared by the food facility. The bill would define a “food delivery platform” as an online business that acts as an intermediary between consumers and multiple food facilities to submit food orders from a consumer to a participating food facility, and to arrange for the delivery of the order from the food facility to the consumer.
