plates close-up

As people are becoming more health conscious, it makes sound business sense to offer healthier food options in a healthy, clean environment. Businesses must have good standards of food hygiene and have achieved a rating equivalent to 3 stars or above in the ‘Scores on the Doors’ scheme before they can apply for the award.

The Healthy Choice Award is based on the general principles of a balanced diet and can be applied to all types of premesis.

 

Not everything on the menu needs to be healthy for a business to apply.

See our Catering Guidance for ideas on how to make simple changes that will save money and improve the nutritional content of the food you serve.

  • Helping your customers identify you as having healthy options on your menu
