Tesco removes hygiene rating - then it reappears

Article excerpt

A Tesco Express in Clapham lost its hygiene rating after inspectors found mouse droppings and other failures, only to have the rating mysteriously reappear. The store initially received a two-star rating from food safety authorities, then the rating vanished from public records, before reappearing again. The incident raises questions about how hygiene ratings are managed and displayed, and whether supermarket chains can influence their online presence when health violations are documented.
