A REDDITCH takeaway has been handed a new four-out-of-five food hygiene rating.

Mr Perios And Napoli Pizza, a takeaway at 5 Matchborough Centre, Matchborough Way, was given the score after assessment on April 26, the Food Standards Agency's website shows.

It means that of Redditch's 69 takeaways with ratings, 33 have ratings of five and none have zero ratings.

A rating of five means hygiene standards are very good, four means hygiene standards are good, three means hygiene standards are generally satisfactory, two means some improvement is necessary, a rating of one means major improvement is necessary and a rating of zero means urgent improvement is required.
