Q: How safe are food businesses in Merton?
Official GuidanceBased on the latest inspection data, 81.3% of food establishments in Merton have passed hygiene safety checks (Rating 3 or above). This indicates a generally high standard of food safety across the local authority.
Q: What does a '0' rating actually mean?
Official GuidanceA rating of 0 means 'Urgent Improvement Necessary'. It indicates that the business performed poorly in all three areas of inspection: food handling, structural cleanliness, and management documentation.
Q: Can a business continue to trade with a low rating?
Official GuidanceYes, a low rating doesn't always mean a business is an immediate risk to health. If the inspector finds an imminent risk to public health, they have the power to close the premises until it is safe.
Q: How can I report a hygiene concern in this area?
Official GuidanceIf you have experienced poor hygiene or food poisoning in Merton, you should contact the Environmental Health department of the local council. They are responsible for investigating consumer complaints.
Q: How long does a rating stay valid?
Official GuidanceA rating remains valid until the next inspection. The frequency of these visits depends on the risk profile of the business, typically ranging from 6 months to 2 years.
Q: Why do some new businesses show as 'Awaiting Inspection'?
Official GuidanceNewly opened venues or those under new ownership are registered but haven't had their first official check yet. They are legally allowed to trade but must register with the council 28 days before opening.
