Achieving a 5-Star Food Hygiene Rating in Film & TV Location Catering

5-Star Food Hygiene rating


At Rose Catering, we understand the rigorous demands of achieving and maintaining a 5-star food hygiene rating in the specialised field of film and TV location catering. In the fast-paced world of film and television production, where creativity and innovation take the spotlight, the welfare of the crew through exceptional catering should never be overlooked. Our commitment to health, safety, and food hygiene is steadfast, ensuring that every aspect of your catering experience meets the highest industry standards.

Safe Food, Happy Crew: Food Safety in Mobile Kitchens

Mobile kitchens, an indispensable part of location catering, come with their unique set of challenges. Maintaining stringent food safety standards, including proper handling, storage, and temperature control, becomes a critical mission. The mobility of the kitchen demands meticulous attention to every aspect of food safety to guarantee a safe and delightful dining experience for the crew.

Hygiene: A Cornerstone of Quality Catering

In the midst of the activity on a film or TV set, maintaining high levels of personal and environmental hygiene is not an option but a necessity. Hygiene is the cornerstone that underpins the quality of the catering service. Cleanliness in food preparation areas, coupled with the personal hygiene of the catering team, significantly influences not only the crew’s well-being but also their productivity during demanding shoots.

Preventing Risks: Cross-Contamination and Allergen Management

On-location catering brings about heightened risks of cross-contamination and allergen exposure. This calls for stringent preventive measures to ensure safe food preparation and service. From separating allergen-containing foods to thorough sanitisation routines, meticulous strategies are vital to mitigate these risks and guarantee the safety of all involved.

Logistics and Food Hygiene Challenges

The nature of on-location catering presents logistical challenges that directly impact maintaining high hygiene standards. Adapting to diverse settings, dealing with limited resources, and managing waste disposal require innovative solutions and best practices. Overcoming these hurdles is essential to upholding the desired hygiene levels throughout the catering operation.

Team Training: Ensuring Safety and Food Hygiene Compliance

A well-trained catering team is the linchpin of safety and hygiene in on-location catering. Comprehensive training programmes tailored to the unique demands of location catering equip the team with the knowledge and skills required to maintain impeccable safety and hygiene standards. A trained team not only elevates the quality of service but also ensures the well-being of everyone on set.

Collaboration for Success: Production and Catering Synergy

A successful catering operation on location is a result of seamless collaboration between catering teams and production crews. The marriage of efforts between these two entities is crucial in maintaining safety and hygiene on set. When everyone works in unison, adhering to the protocols and guidelines, it creates a safe, efficient, and enjoyable environment for all involved.

Outstanding Food Hygiene Standards

Our passion for creating delicious cuisine for film and TV productions is matched by our dedication to upholding impeccable safety and hygiene standards. All our food is prepared to the highest industry benchmarks, with scrupulous adherence to regulations and protocols. We are proud to announce that Rose Catering was recently granted a 5-star hygiene rating by the Food Standards Agency. These efforts not only prioritise the well-being of the crew but also enhance productivity and contribute to the overall success of the production. Every on-set bite is a safe and delightful experience, a testament to our commitment to safeguarding culinary excellence amidst the art of filmmaking.
