What types of businesses are given a rating?
• Restaurants, takeaways, cafés, sandwich shops, pubs, hotels, supermarkets and other retail food outlets, and any other business where consumers can eat or buy food.
• Certain exemptions apply:- 'low-risk' premises which are not generally recognised by
consumers as being food businesses- certain businesses operating from private addresses – e.g.
childminders.
• Under certain circumstances, exempted businesses can request to opt into the scheme.
