FOOD LABELING

Food and Beverage Label Design and Evaluation

All food imported, produced, or made available for consumption must comply with the European Union's legislative requirements for labelling. Regulation (EU) 1169/2011 on "the provision of food information to consumers" concerns the labeling, presentation, and advertising of food. The most important points of Regulation (EU) 1169/2011 are:

• The nutritional labeling of all foods becomes mandatory (with specific exceptions).

• It becomes mandatory to provide information on allergenic ingredients in food sold unpackaged to the final consumer.

• The rules regarding the indication of the place or country of origin of food are clearly defined.

• Defines a specific font size for mandatory information, while also setting conditions for how optional information is presented.
