Article summary

The European Commission has launched the EU Code of Conduct on Responsible Food Business and Marketing Practices, which is a part of the Commission’s Farm to Fork Strategy. The Code is thought to be an essential part of the EU’s plan to increase the availability and affordability of healthy and sustainable food options. The Code has been signed by 65 companies and associations in the food sector, which signals their commitment to accelerate their contribution to a sustainable transition. The Commission is encouraging other companies and associations to join the Code and intends to present it in the United Nations’ Food Systems Summit later this year.
