Guidance on implementation and operation of the Food Hygiene Rating Scheme: the Brand Standard and statutory guidance

The Brand Standard

The Brand Standard guidance provides local authorities in England with advice and guidance on all aspects of implementation and operation of the scheme.

The aim is to ensure that where food business establishments are rated under the scheme and where consumers see scheme branding, they can be confident that the local authority is operating the scheme as we intend and that it is done so consistently in all parts of England.
