Food Policy
Retail businesses that sell any food must comply with food law. The Food Standards Agency developed a guide for retailer called ‘safer food, better business’ to help small retail businesses that sell food, including any food that needs to be kept cold to keep it safe, e.g. milk. These include convenience stores, confectioners, tobacconists and newsagents.
Regulations introduced in January 2006 state that you must be able to show what you do to sell food that is safe to eat and have this written down. This Safer Food, Better Business pack is based on the principles of HACCP (hazard analysis critical control point).
