Sacred Summit food hygiene rating

Distributors/Transporters · Lewes

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

The rating: 5 - Very good

The rating dates from 22 May 2025, 13 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.

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 Sacred Summit 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.
