# Certified food manager

A term used when buying coffee shop.

The manager credential a food service establishment must have on staff, tested and time limited.

State law puts a clock on both tiers of this and a buyer inherits whoever is already on the schedule. Florida gives a manager thirty days after hire to pass the required test, gives a food service employee sixty days to be trained, and expires the employee certificate after three years. Ask for every certificate with its issue date before closing, because a shift running on a lapsed card is a failed inspection waiting for the wrong week, and the person holding the certificate can resign the day after the sale.
