Testimonials

I am very happy to recommend THE FOOD SAFETY COMPANY. They are a great team to work with and gave us sensible, practical, realistic advice. They know their stuff!

They helped me develop and implement a bespoke food safety system for my multiple businesses, providing us with tailor made HACCP procedures and monitoring sheets which my Chefs find easy to use and helping me maintain a level 5 food hygiene rating.

Many thanks to Christina and her the team.

I appointed The Food Safety Company to advise me to ensure my business is compliant and that we attain a level 5 when the inspector comes.

I found that they had a very professional and proactive approach. They helped us to develop a bespoke food safety management system based on Safer Food – Better Business for my staff, that is really simple and easy to use. So my staff can concentrate on my customers and improving sales and keeping profit up.

I am more than happy to recommend The Food Safety Company to any food business operator who needs some support.

After completing many of our own self-audits with new customers, we decided that it would be beneficial for our Company to employ an independent auditor/company that would analyse our working practices and help us to refine our systems and existing HACCPS. We are an SME in Shropshire and the Company was formed in 2001, so over the last 17 years we have supplied many prestigious high street names such as Selfridges and Harrods, along with Michelin-starred Chefs and Restaurants. We felt we would benefit from being able to present our Food Safety Manual in a professional and logical fashion, demonstrating that we have everything in place to help us supply such establishments with the best possible quality products and service.

The Food Safety Company have helped us to achieve our aims and we are eternally grateful for their no-nonsense, logical approach to the minefield that HACCPS can become when your operation changes year on year. We now have concise and clear cut policies, clearly documented and easy to understand HACCPS, and although we do not have BRC accreditation we are more than happy to invite inspection of our new Food Safety Policies and Manual which will easily stand close scrutiny and represents our business ethic very well.

We therefore do not hesitate to recommend The Food Safety Company to anyone looking to achieve the same level of professionalism that we have described above!

We at Slater’s Country Inn have found the services of The Food Safety Company invaluable in helping us maintain our Food safety standards whilst retaining our level 5 food hygiene rating.

We have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending The Food Safety Company to any hospitality or food outlet, for support with food hygiene issues. They offer sensible, realistic and practical solutions to ensure compliance with current food safety legislation and are very good value for money.

I was introduced to Christina a couple of years ago at a networking event and she became an immediate advocate for Alice charity due to her inherent compassion. In March 2017 we opened our People’s Pantry in Newcastle town centre, a flexible food bank to support local, vulnerable families.

We knew that we had an increasing demand for food support but knew nothing about operating a food bank, and the prospect of Environmental Health and Food Hygiene terrified us. So we turned to Christina to support us with our People’s Pantry launch and her coaching, training, guidance and support resulted in the People’s Pantry opening on time, with all the required Environmental Health and Food Hygiene documentation and training completed. When the Pantry was inspected by Environmental Health soon after opening, we were immediately awarded 5 stars.

I cannot stress enough how Christina’s support during this launch helped us. Her training and coaching to the team was always delivered with passion and professionalism, but also always with fun and kindness. Christina immediately understood that our volunteers came from very different backgrounds, and needed a lot of reassurance and patience during their training, which Christina has in buckets. Christina also developed a cleaning program from us that is easy for the team to understand and maintain.

We have since opened a number of toddler groups and always consult her for guidance on the kitchen facilities within the venues that we hire.

We plan to open more People’s Pantry in 2018 and will immediately revert to Christina for her support.

We can recommend Christina without hesitation – she turns the scary world of Food Hygiene in to an accessible, readily understood process, and supports you through every step of the process.

The Food Safety Company have acted as Nantwich Food Festival’s food safety advisors since 2014. Christina Ratcliffe and her team provide us with an efficient, clear, friendly and professional service. As the Festival’s Exhibitor Coordinator I found Christina’s support invaluable in taking away some of the pressure of my role as she liaises with Environmental Heath Officers both before and during the Festival and gives information and support to our exhibitors to ensure compliance with regulations. Her detailed feedback enables me to make any necessary adjustments to our ongoing planning.

I would fully recommend the Company and look forward to a continuing professional relationship with Christina.

We are an independent hotel and restaurant based in Newcastle-under-Lyme who utilised the services of The Food Safety Company prior to our Environmental Health Officer (EHO) inspection in July 2017. Christina offers a professional and confidential service and was a pleasure to work with throughout. We were provided with an extremely detailed and comprehensive food safety audit report following the visit. We implemented all of the recommendations offered to us and this allowed us to maintain our five star food hygiene rating. I would highly recommend Christina’s services for businesses looking to achieve those all important scores on the doors.

Christina is not a consultant, she is a partner in your journey to achieving compliance. She works very meticulously, balancing the practical aspects of your business with the law and crafts a food safety management system that’s not just easy to maintain but earns top marks from the local authorities.

She has guided our business every step of the way as if it was hers and we achieved a 5 star rating at the end of it. Highly recommended!
