More about Safer Food Better Business
The Food Standards Agency (FSA) developed Safer Food Better Business (SFBB) to help businesses comply with this legal requirement.
SFBB is a simple fact sheet system that shows how to ensure that potential hazards in a food business can be safely controlled, namely those to do with:
- Cross-contamination
- Cleaning
- Chilling

It can be downloaded free of charge from the Food Standards Agency.
