What impact do the recent hygiene ratings have on Croydon residents’ food choice?
When residents see hygiene ratings, especially recent ones, it tends to increase their confidence in the safety and quality of the food at those venues. Consumers who actively seek out and check hygiene ratings feel more informed and have greater trust in both the food and local authorities enforcing hygiene standards.
The visibility of these ratings allows residents to make safer and more informed choices about where to eat or order takeaway.
A higher rating (4 or 5) generally attracts more customers, while a low score (0-2) acts as a warning and may deter consumers from patronizing that business.
