Paper records are a liability.

Most food safety apps are built for restaurants — too complex, too expensive, or missing the checks mobile caterers actually need. Paper gets wet, lost, or forgotten. Neither impresses an EHO.

VanGuard is different:

→ Designed around the mobile caterer workflow

→ Van, trailer & gazebo-specific checks

→ Instant audit report — no manual compilation

→ £7.99/month. Not £50+ like the big players

Food safety records for mobile caterers — FAQ

Do mobile caterers need to keep food safety records in the UK?
Yes. UK food hygiene law expects mobile caterers to keep records such as fridge and hot-hold temperatures, cleaning checks and opening and closing checks — usually through the FSA's Safer Food, Better Business system. VanGuard logs all of these in seconds and stores them safely.
What records does an EHO want to see at an inspection?
Typically temperature logs (fridge, freezer, hot-hold and probe checks), cleaning schedules, delivery records, allergen information and your daily diary. VanGuard bundles your whole history into one EHO-ready report you can hand over on the spot.
How do I prepare for an EHO inspection as a food truck?
Keep your daily checks up to date and have your records ready to show. With VanGuard you log checks as you trade and export a full inspection pack in one tap, so there is no scrambling through paperwork on the day.
Does VanGuard work for food trucks, trailers and gazebos?
Yes. The checklists adapt to your unit type — van, trailer, gazebo or stall — so you only see the checks that apply to you.
How much does VanGuard cost?
£7.99 a month or £69.99 a year, with a 14-day free trial and no card required to start.
Do I need to install an app from the App Store?
No. VanGuard runs in any phone's web browser and can be added to your home screen — there is nothing to download from an app store.
