What Our Clients Says

20+ Years of Experience In Food Safety Regulatory Compliance and Food Facility Construction Management

Zenovotech is a true turn-key company, you just sign the contract and they handle everything. They managed our Baby Cafe projects in San Leandro and Emeryville from start to finish, keeping the architect, construction crew, health inspector, and city inspectors completely aligned. With a team of former Health Department plan checkers and current California REHS specialists, they knew exactly how to work with regulators to get our permits approved incredibly fast. Without Zenovotech, opening these locations wouldn't have been nearly as fast or stress-free.

Jon Chen

President, Baby Cafe

Highly working with Zenovotech has been a game changer because they truly handle everything from start to finish. They’ve stepped up to manage our advanced food facility projects completely, taking care of the entire design, build, and regulatory licensing process. At Kitchenoid, we focus strictly on developing the innovation, while Zenovotech bridges the gap to compliance. They've guided us on everything from complex local, state, and federal food codes to selecting the exact food-contact materials we need to pass inspection. Honestly, without Zenovotech navigating the bureaucracy and permitting for us, our autonomous technology wouldn't even have a foot in the door of the food industry.

Varesh

CEO, Kitchenoid

I know how to cook delicious Mexican food, but when I wanted to start my business, I had absolutely no clue how to build a food truck or get the right paperwork to operate. That is when Zenovotech stepped in and handled everything for me. They collaborated directly with the food truck construction company, did the design work, and secured every single regulatory permit and license needed to operate in California. They literally took care of everything from start to finish until my truck was fully permitted and ready to roll. Thanks to Zenovotech, I am finally out in the community doing what I love and sharing my passion for food. I cannot thank the team enough for making my dream a reality.
