Update food business details

The Trading Standards Food Team is responsible for the enforcement of all aspects of Food Standards matters, including labelling, composition, descriptions, weights and measures and price marking. Free guidance on the whole range of Trading Standards functions, including Food Standards, can be found on the Business Companion website

All food business operators are liable for inspection by Trading Standards.

To ensure we have your current business details and the type and scale of your activities recorded correctly please complete the questionnaire:

Food standards questionnaire

The information you provide will allow us to tailor any guidance you may need in relation to your food business and we can ensure that you receive information regarding any appropriate updates to legislation or government guidance. It will also allow us to accurately risk assess your business in accordance with the Food Law Code of Practice, and may avoid an officer unnecessarily having to conduct a physical inspection of your premises.

If you need clarification in this matter, or you would like any assistance completing the questionnaire, contact the Food Team by telephone on 01772 532145 or by sending an email to TSDO@lancashire.gov.uk .

If you are wanting to register a new food business you should contact your local Environmental Health Service, or register via the GOV.UK online portal.
