Details

Get the official hygiene inspection results of French restaurants, bakeries, butchers, caterers, canteens, supermarket counters and food plants — the data behind the Alim'confiance smiley ratings — as clean JSON: rating, inspection date, establishment name, SIRET, activity, address and GPS.

Who uses it

• Hygiene consultants and HACCP trainers: find establishments rated "A améliorer" or "A corriger de manière urgente" in your area, the day the result is published.
• Food suppliers, equipment and cleaning companies: build lists of active food businesses by activity and area.
• Delivery platforms, review sites and insurers: enrich restaurant listings or risk scores with the official rating.
• Journalists and local media: map inspection results by city.

Pricing

Pay per result: you pay for each inspection returned, nothing for those filtered out. In monitor mode you only pay for new inspections. Set a maximum cost per run to cap spending.

Good to know

• The official dataset covers about the last 12 months of inspections and is refreshed weekly.
• By default only the latest inspection of each establishment is returned (latestPerEstablishment).
• A rating reflects the situation on the inspection day.
