Substances in some foods can cause an allergic reaction and they are called ‘allergens’. In some people, food allergens can trigger allergic reactions that range from mild to severe, whilst others may be allergic to more than one food allergen and in some cases, eating even the smallest amount of the allergen can cause a life threatening allergic reaction call anaphylaxis. Anaphylaxis is usually rapid in onset and can sometimes be fatal. getFresh Merchants are vigilant in their approach to managing potential food allergens within the business.
Here at getFresh Merchants, we encourage a friendly inviting work place, where our employees are treated like our customers and our customers are treated like one of our team!
