State Mandated ServSafe Food Safety Class
State Mandated ServSafe Food Safety Class Coming to Gallup on Sept. 14
Gallup, NM — August 5, 2026 - All food service and hospitality employees in Gallup now have the opportunity to register for the upcoming in person ServSafe Food Safety Manager Certification Class on September 14.
This isn’t just another training session. It’s a state requirement. Under New Mexico law, every foodservice establishment must have at least one certified food protection manager on site. The September 14 class offers a fast, reliable path to meeting that mandate — with instructor-led training and a same-day proctored exam.
Why this matters:
Foodborne illness prevention isn’t optional, it’s how we keep our community safe.
Certified managers help restaurants:
- Prevent foodborne illness and protect customers
- Build a culture of safety that keeps families confident dining out
- Train staff to handle food properly, from storage to service
- Reduce the risk of outbreaks that can harm guests and shut down businesses
Seats are limited
Registration is first-come, first-served. Once the class fills, the next available session may be months away. Restaurants that wait risk being left without a certified manager when the community needs them most.
