About

The Food Standards Agency awarded a contract to BMG Research Ltd for a representative audit of the display of Food Hygiene Rating Scheme (FHRS) stickers at food business premises in England, Northern Ireland, and Wales, along with an associated telephone survey of food businesses.

The audit aimed to monitor display rates to provide evidence of consumer accessibility to ratings at point of choice and to compare the voluntary scheme in England with the statutory schemes in Wales and Northern Ireland.

The telephone survey assessed business attitudes towards and understanding of the scheme, including the use of safeguards, perceived impact on businesses, and alternative display methods such as on publicity materials and websites.
