Premier food hygiene rating
Retailers - other · Scottish Borders
Premier was told improvement was required at its most recent inspection. Under Scotland's scheme that means the inspector found the shop fell short of the legal standard and expects it to put things right.
The rating: Improvement required
The rating dates from 15 August 2025, 10 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.

Questions about Premier
What is Premier's food hygiene rating?
Premier does not have a numeric food hygiene rating. Its current status is "Improvement required".
When was Premier last inspected?
Premier was last inspected on 15 August 2025, 10 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Scottish Borders Council rather than by the business.
Who decides the rating?
Scottish Borders Council inspects Premier 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.
Tell me when this changes
The Food Standards Agency publishes only a business's rating today, not what it scored before, and not when it moves. We check every UK rating each night. Watch Premier and we will email you the morning after its rating changes.
