MENU ITEM EXCLUSIVITY
Are you interested in applying for an exclusive menu item?
NEW this year - Food vendors have the opportunity for exclusivity of one menu item (you will be the only vendor allowed to sell the item)! This does not include "common" menu items (i.e., hot dogs) and is up to fair management's discretion. The cost for exclusivity of one item is $750. If you are interested in taking advantage of this opportunity, please indicate below with up to three items in order of preference. CSF will contact you with decisions about exclusivity items.
