Flintshire Co-op Store Receives One Star Food Hygiene Rating

Hey, listen to this. A Co-op store in Ewloe got a low food hygiene score. The Food Standards Agency did an inspection in December. They gave the store this rating.

The agency says some things need fixing. They want safer food handling practices at the store. This includes how they cook, cool, and store food. Cleanliness also needs improvement there. The building itself needs some work too, like ventilation, layout, and pest control.

Hand washing facilities must be better as well to keep food safe. The management of food safety needs big changes. They need better systems to ensure food is safe, and staff should know more about food safety. The food safety officer wasn’t confident enough.

The Co-op said they’re disappointed by the score and that the issues are now fixed. They want another visit for a new score. Co-op claims they usually have high standards for safety and cleanliness, and they are hoping for a much better rating next time.
