question for those who started jerky home business in Australia (Melbourne specifically)

hi folks, a mate and I is looking into selling our jerky as we've tested it with people around us and we are getting great feedback,

we got into a stumbling block though, looking into making it actually legal seems to be impossible undertaking if we want to make this a side hustle as the requirements seem to require us to basically make this a full time endeavour - with us having to use a commercial kitchen that can't be sublet, unable to do it from home unless we are building a new site, specific licenses etc (its looking more like an undertaking where we need to actually apply for a business loan instead of a small side hustle)

has anyone gone through these? any tips when it comes to this side? I read some other australian company's jerky business history and they said they're starting it from home... we were like.. how? the requirement seems to wont let us???

thanks!
