FAQ
- Which ready-to-eat food controls should I inspect?Review separation of ready-to-eat fillings from raw ingredients, handwashing, sanitising, date marking and utensil controls. Check inspection reports, temperature records, complaints and whether preparation volumes exceed the shop's refrigerated workspace and storage capacity.
- What labelling is required for prepacked sandwiches?Review each prepacked product's name, ingredients, allergens, date, storage instructions and responsible business details under applicable labelling rules. Confirm that printed labels match current recipes and substitutions rather than outdated templates or supplier data.
- How should chilled display and stock be assessed?Inspect display temperatures, calibration, loading, backup power and discard procedures. Reconcile prepared quantities with sales and waste logs, and value ingredients by ownership, expiry, condition and realistic use before the completion date.
- How can I verify footfall and lunchtime demand?Analyse transactions by half-hour, weekday and season against independent site visits. Test dependence on nearby offices, schools or stations, and review customer access, parking, landlord works and hybrid-working patterns affecting the lunchtime peak.
- Which customer and supply contracts matter most?Review office catering, delivery, bread supply, rebates, minimum purchases and exclusivity. Confirm assignment and renewal terms, service levels and pricing, and identify revenue or discounts dependent on informal relationships that may end after completion.
- How can I test sandwich margins and waste?Rebuild costs from bread, fillings, condiments and packaging using actual portions and supplier prices. Compare theoretical usage with purchases and POS sales, investigating overfilling, end-of-day waste, promotions, staff meals and unrecorded catering orders.
