SB 2265 Mississippi Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Cottage foods; further define and increase sellers allowed annual gross sales amount to $59,000.00.

SB 2265 would have increased Mississippi's annual sales cap for cottage food operations from $20,000 to $59,000, allowing home-based food sellers to earn more without needing a full food establishment permit. It required all cottage food vendors to complete ANSI-accredited food handler safety training (with a 2025 compliance deadline for existing sellers) and mandated specific labeling on products. The bill defined approved cottage foods (like baked goods, jams, dried spices, and wine) and prohibited online sales or wholesale distribution. However, the bill died in committee on February 4, 2025, and never became law.
