29 takeaways in Wrexham have been ranked as having ‘Very Good’ food hygiene on the Food Standards Agency website. 

Last week we reported on the Wrexham takeaways that rated a zero, one and two in their most recent food hygiene inspection (as listed on the Food Standards website).

However 29 takeaways in Wrexham have been given the top rating by food hygiene inspectors.

A rating of five means that a businesses hygiene standards are deemed to be ‘very good’, whereas a rating of  zero means that improvement is both urgent and necessary. However the Food Standards Agency say that: “Any business should be able to reach this top rating.”

The Food Standards Agency Website states: “A new rating is given each time the business is inspected by a food safety officer from the local authority where the business is located. How often inspections take place depends on the potential risk to people’s health if something goes wrong and this depends on the type of food being handled and the type of processes that are carried out before the food is sold or served to the public.

“There is a greater risk if a business is, for example, preparing and serving or selling different types of both cooked and raw foods. These businesses are inspected more often than, for example, a small retailer selling a range of pre-packed foods that require only to be kept refrigerated.

“The time between inspections varies from six months for the highest risk business to two years for lower risk businesses. For some very low risk businesses, the interval between inspections may be greater than this.”
