In trying to find local retailers, I don’t plan to assume anything – least not that “small is beautiful”. Just because a place is local and independent, it doesn’t mean that they are necessarily any better than the supermarkets they will be replacing.
So this is a handy site to check – the Food Standard Agency’s hygiene ratings. I’m not expecting everyone to have a “5”, but I might have reservations about buying from someone with a “1”, as one of my prospects (who I won’t name) had.
