The first operating day: your preparation checklist.
Work backwards from a permitted first sale. Identify the paperwork, premises, banking, people and records that must connect before the launch team can operate.
Use this list to prepare a launch sequence with owners, dependencies and handover records. Mark the tasks you have reviewed and identify who owns the next action. Completion of a checklist does not establish authority approval or eligibility.
