Food safety audits that lift ratings and calm inspections

When service is busy, small shortcuts turn into big problems. A probe that is out of calibration, a label guessed near the pass or an allergen answer that sounds unsure.

Our audits find those gaps without slowing the kitchen. We watch how food actually moves from delivery to plate, talk to the people doing the work, and leave you with a plan to help improve your operations.

The scope of services that we provide

Our food safety audits cover every part of your operation that an Environmental Health Officer will expect to see working in practice, not just written down.

We assess how food is handled from delivery through to service, how food safety risks are controlled during real trading conditions, and how well your team understands and follows your systems. Each audit focuses on evidence, behaviour and compliance, with clear actions you can implement immediately.

Safety Compliance Audit

To assess compliance with your choice of food safety, health & safety, fire safety and brand standards in line with your policy and processes.

New Business Mobilisation Support Audit & Pre‑Management Audits

Taking on a new site can be daunting. We can carry out mobilisation audits shortly after handover to coach and support managers in ensuring everything is available and in place with regards to food and safety. A comprehensive action plan will act as a checklist to implementing robust management systems that stick.

If you're deciding whether to take on a new contract we can help in providing a pre-management audit that provides a gap analysis and highlights any key areas of non-compliance and red flags. This puts you in a good position from the start to know which areas need prioritising and help in your contractual and operational decision making.

Baxter Storey, Operations Manager

"The auditor was engaging and energetic and my teams got huge value from her audits, well beyond just checking off the audit criteria.

They have been left more aware of best practice for their locations and are now energised about raising their safety standards even further!"

What we focus on

HACCP in practice

We track dishes from the door to the table and match the steps to your HACCP plan. We look at chilled deliveries and how well stock is managed to maintain safe temperatures. We check how raw and ready-to-eat items are separated in storage.

We watch cooking, cooling, reheating and hot holding in real-time. We test probe accuracy and see how temperatures are taken, recorded and acted on.

Allergen control

From supplier data to the table

We review supplier specs, recipes and allergen matrices. Then we stand at the pass and listen to how allergen information is communicated and how well questions are handled when tickets stack up.

If a dish can be adapted, we check that the kitchen and front of house describe the change in the same way and that the till, app or allergen records matches what the team says. We provide support in providing clear messaging to guests in regards to allergen information.

‍Head of Safety

"Very impressed with your approach, the team really enjoyed your audits and feel very supported by you - in particular, the 'show me/tell me' approach that you use during audits to engage with the teams on site."

Cleaning, structure and pests

Standards that survive the rush

We check the cleaning schedule is being actively completed. We look at chemical storage, labelling and dilution. We check that high-risk touch points are sanitised when they should be, not only when someone remembers. We look under and behind equipment at seals, finishes and drainage.

If the structure is fighting you, we flag fixes that make good hygiene the easy option. Where there are challenges around pest management, we coach and advise on actions in priority order and quick fixes.
