HFSS - WHAT DO YOU NEED TO KNOW
Foods or Drinks that are high in fat, sugar or salt (HFSS) are defined by the Department of Health’s Nutrient Profiling Model (NPM) are coming under new regulations and legislation in October 2022.
The UK government is looking at the causes of obesity which is one of the biggest health challenges the country faces. It's a 21st Century epidemic with huge hidden costs.
HFSS foods are under scrutiny and how businesses promote these in stores.
Did you know that:
-
2 in 3 adults in England are overweight or obese.
-
1 in 3 children leave primary school overweight or obese
To tackle obesity the UK Government is bringing in sweeping new legislation that will drastically change the Grocery industry landscape and the way stores promote HFSS products. These are widely recognised as the biggest changes the industry has faced in decades.
The new changes are largely misunderstood. Of more concern is many businesses are simply unaware they are within scope of these changes and the new legislation. They are not prepared for the changes or the conequences and financial risk they face for failure to comply with the new laws.
