Register new food business

A new campaign from the Food Standards Agency to new businesses to register is being backed by the South and East Lincolnshire Councils Partnership.
The pandemic saw a huge increase in the number of food businesses based in people’s homes.
Since March 2020, 37 per cent of new food ventures registering through the FSA’s digital service are run from domestic kitchens at private addresses.
Some businesses, however, may not be aware of the need to register with their local environmental health teams as a food business, potentially leading to food safety failings or misunderstanding that could put consumers at risk.
“It is great to see this innovation and these exciting new businesses getting started in the borough and districts, but it is also important that we continue to work with them to make sure their practices are helping keep customers, residents and themselves safe,” said coun Anthony Casson.
“Thats why the South and East Lincolnshire Councils Partnership is working with the FSA to support businesses to ensure they are registered and keeping us informed of any changes to their business.
“It’s a legal requirement and completely free and allows us to make sure they are getting all the help and guidance they need,” he added.
