Ark. Code Ann. § 20-59-304: Production requirements generally

(a) Any person, firm, or corporation that can and does comply with the rules as promulgated by the State Board of Health and upon the payment of the permit fee and the issuance of a permit shall be eligible to produce, manufacture, process, freeze, and package mellorine and mellorine mix.

(b) The plants must have available the necessary equipment to package the product in containers as set out in this subchapter. However, plants may manufacture mellorine mix without owning the necessary equipment to package the product, so long as they sell the mellorine mix to a processing plant which has been issued a permit and has the necessary equipment to package mellorine.
