i am trying to start an ice cream business in california. what do i need to do first in terms of licence, etc

Question

i have no idea where to begin, now that i am about to sign a lease with the landlord.

Answer 1

have you got a business license from the city you are running the business in? and i think you need a retail license, most likely you need to contact the city or go to city hall and they can insturct you on what you need to pay for and what you need. dont sign anything with the leasing office just yet!
