The Viper Co Group food hygiene rating

Importers/Exporters · Kirklees

The Viper Co Group holds a 5, the highest food hygiene rating there is. At its last inspection the importer met every standard the inspector checked, with nothing needing attention.

The rating: 5 - Very good

The rating dates from 5 January 2023, more than 3 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.

Address: Unit 1b, Greenhill Mills, Grange Road, WF17 6LH

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 The Viper Co Group 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.
