Food Complaints

Occasionally you may purchase or consume a food or drink item, which falls below your expectation. Gwynedd Council has a duty to investigate food complaints in relation to food purchased within the county. 

There may be some occasions where the food has been produced within Gwynedd and sold within another county or a Gwynedd resident has purchased a food item outside Gwynedd and wishes to make a complaint in both examples Gwynedd Council may liaise with the relevant authority to facilitate matters.   

Please read the guidance document on food complaints as it gives examples of common food complaints, which are often as a result of the manufacturing process and are not a risk to public health.
