Wigan food hygiene: The latest eateries to receive a new rating in May

A Thai supermarket in Wigan has received a shockingly low food hygiene mark.

Raan Nuch on Wigan Road in Bryn has earned zero stars.

Such a rating means various aspects such as the management of food safety requires major improvement.

The inspectors found a variety of food which was either not labelled or had no traceability information.

These ensure people know where food has come from, when it has to be used by, what allergens are in it and that it is safe to eat.

The information is also used so food can be tracked in case of a safety recall.

Raan Nuch has been ordered to pay £335 to cover the cost of the food being destroyed.

The council said its environmental health team works with businesses and will always provide advice and warnings where possible, before taking legal action.

Officials from the Food Standards Agency often conduct impromptu visits to food-serving premises across the borough - the most recent assessments coming from May.

Out of 62 inspections that month, 27 received five stars signifying a “very good” rating.

Ten venues earned a four, while eight businesses earned a three.

Seven eateries landed a two and nine establishments earned one star.

One earned a zero.

In 2024 out of Wigan’s 241 restaurants, cafes and canteens to be awarded ratings so far, 140 (58 per cent) have ratings of five.

Businesses are scored from zero to five on a variety of different components like how food is handled with preparation, cooking, reheating and storage.

They also look at the cleanliness, layout and structure of the building when it comes to lighting, ventilation and how it is managed.
