Hi there I was going to format my usb stick as fat 32 in disk manager but I do not get the option for my usb flash drive. Is there a way I can make this work?
Thanks in advance

FWIW, the MS-DOS (FAT) setting defaults to FAT32 unless the flash drive is under 32GB, in which case it uses FAT16.

If you're trying to erase the volume you may not get the option for Fat 32. Select the Container an that should give you what you want:
Disk Utilities >> View >> View ALL attached Drives.
Choose the Upper Most Drive By the Manufacturer Name of this External USB Drive
Choose Erase and Format as FAT 32 with the " Master Boot Record "
