Food safety and hygiene
1. Overview
COVID-19
For guidance on re-opening your food business after the shutdown, please visit our COVID-19 food business guidance section
We're responsible for a high standard of food safety and hygiene in the borough.
We will regularly inspect all the food businesses in Gravesham and, if necessary, we'll take legal action against those who have serious food hygiene problems.
We can investigate food complaints, complaints about premises and cases of food poisoning. We have a sampling policy and programme which focuses on relevant and current issues. We also provide information and advice on food safety to new and existing businesses and the public.
