How FTA works

From public information to a transparency profile you can check.

FTA structures public food safety information and restaurant-submitted records into a transparency profile — reviewed before publication, and open to independent verification.

Structure public food safety information

FTA gathers and organizes publicly available food safety information — such as inspection references and public reports — into a consistent, readable format.

Build restaurant transparency profiles

Restaurants in the pilot get a structured transparency profile: a single place presenting hygiene visibility, allergen communication, and operating context.

Display public safety indicators and timeline records

Profiles show public safety indicators and a timeline of records — inspections, public reports, and owner updates — each with a last-confirmed date.

Support reviewable evidence and verification-style transparency

Where available, records can link to supporting evidence and public verification material, so claims can be checked rather than taken on trust alone.

Help diners and restaurants make better-informed decisions

Diners get clearer context before they choose where to eat. Restaurants get a credible way to show the safety and transparency work they already do.

For diners

Review a restaurant's public safety indicators and timeline records before you decide where to eat or order.

For restaurants

Present structured, evidence-backed transparency records instead of leaving customers to guess.

What FTA is not

FTA is not a government authority, regulator, inspection body, or certification scheme, and it does not offer medical, allergy, or legal advice. It organizes public information and restaurant-submitted transparency records so people can review the evidence themselves.
