The first in a series of 10 practical guides for the food industry is to be published in February by the UK's TSO The Mail Order Guide covers the sale of all perishable foods by mail order, when delivery to the final consumer is in an un-refrigerated vehicle

TSO is the document and publishing services provider on behalf of an industry working group that includes the Royal Mail, Packaging Federation, local authorities' coordinators of regulatory services, the National Farmers' Union and the Mail Order Fine Foods Association.

The guides will help operators meet legal requirements and ensure food safety.

All the guides have a special status in law - where a business is following the guidance in any of the recognised guides, the enforcement authority must take that in to account when assessing compliance with the legislation.

All the guides will be officially recognised by the Food Standards Agency and will be written by industry members and key stakeholders, with each guide focusing on a different sector of the food industry.
