Co-op food hygiene rating
Retailers - supermarkets/hypermarkets · Pendle
Co-op holds a 5, the highest food hygiene rating there is. At its last inspection the supermarket met every standard the inspector checked, with nothing needing attention.
The rating: 5 - Very good
The rating dates from 9 April 2026, 4 months ago. Councils typically re-inspect higher-risk businesses every six months to two years, with well-run, low-risk places visited least often, so this is a normal gap.
89% of rated food businesses in Pendle score 4 or 5, so this is a normal, good result for the area. See all Pendle ratings →
