Search For A Facility

Search Help

Wild card characters (special characters that take the place of one or more characters when searching for a name or address, usually *, ? or %) are not necessary, and the search fields are not case sensitive, so upper and lower case does not matter.  

Zero results: If your search does not return any facility information, try entering less information in the search fields: only the first few letters of a facility name or street name, rather than the entire name, or just the facility name by itself, or just the street name or just the ZIP Code.   

Facility names that are plural may or may not contain an apostrophe ('), so try entering the name without the final "s": Smith, rather than Smith's or Smiths, or Frank rather than Frank's Inc or Franks Inc. 

Business names that include initials or single letters are usually listed with no spaces between the single characters. For example, BC Dairy, A&B Grocery. There are some exceptions, so to find a specific business name you may want to try two searches: one without spaces (AB&C) and one with (A B & C). 

Some areas in unincorporated Fresno County may be listed differently between the City and ZIP Code fields. For example, some businesses in ZIP Code 93650 identify their city as Fresno , while others in the same area use Pinedale as the city designator. Searching for one city name will eliminate the other from the results, but searching by ZIP Code - 93650 in this case - will return all facilities. 

For this reason, specifying both the City and ZIP Code fields in the same search may result in an incomplete list, or zero results. Generally the postal ZIP Code will yield more specific results. 

Too many results: If the list of businesses returned is too long, add a little more information at a time until you get what you are looking for. In most cases the facility name or first few letters of the name along with the street name or first few letters of the street name should narrow the list to a manageable length. 

Searching by Area: Type in a street name without a street number and without a facility name to find all the food facilities on that street. Use the ZIP Code search by itself to find all food facilities in a particular area.

Business name changes: Facility ownership and name changes are common, so if you suspect that there has been a recent name change, try searching for the facility by address, leaving the name field blank.

Fresno County and Incorporated Cities Businesses only: Lastly, inspection information is only available for the categories listed within Fresno County , either in an unincorporated area or in one of the incorporated cities.
