Nutrizone food hygiene rating

Retailers - other · Braintree

Nutrizone holds a 5, the highest food hygiene rating there is. At its last inspection the shop met every standard the inspector checked, with nothing needing attention.

The rating: 5 - Very good

The rating dates from 24 May 2021, more than 5 years ago. A lot can change in a kitchen in that time, and a rating this old says more about the business then than now. Councils prioritise re-inspecting higher-risk premises, so a long gap often means the business is considered low-risk.

What the inspector found

An inspection scores three things: how food is handled, the physical condition of the premises, and how much the inspector trusts management to keep standards up. At Nutrizone none of the three raised a concern, the overall rating is only ever as strong as its weakest area, so a clean sweep is what produces a high score.

Nutrizone has a food hygiene rating of 5 out of 5 (very good), given by Braintree Council on 24 May 2021.

Is Nutrizone safe to eat at?

The rating covers hygiene standards found at inspection, not the food itself. At 5 out of 5, the inspector found hygiene standards at this shop to be very good, the top end of the scale.

When was Nutrizone last inspected?

Nutrizone was last inspected on 24 May 2021, more than 5 years ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Braintree Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at Nutrizone?

The inspector scored three areas. Hygienic food handling was rated "very good", the cleanliness and condition of the building "good", and confidence in the management of food safety "good". Lower concern in all three is what earns a high overall rating.

How does Nutrizone compare to other places in Braintree?

85% of the 1,156 rated food businesses in Braintree hold the top rating of 5, and Nutrizone is one of them.

Who decides the rating?

Braintree Council inspects Nutrizone and sets the rating; the Food Standards Agency publishes it. Neither the business nor this site can change a rating, a business that disagrees can appeal to its council, and can request a re-inspection once it has fixed the problems.
