What time do supermarkets open on Sundays?

Why do shops have food hygiene ratings?

Any shop that sells food is registered with the council and can be inspected, the same as a café or takeaway. Shops selling only low-risk packaged food may be marked “exempt” instead of rated. 38 of the supermarkets across Bedford have a rating, 97% of them 4 or 5.
