For U.S. and European grocery retailers requiring more knowledge on food labeling rules and good hygienic practices, Mettler Toledo has put together an informative white paper that is currently available for download.

“Food Safety for Fresh Products in Grocery Retail” explains which regulations food retailers have to comply with when labeling fresh products. It focuses on the European Union Regulation 1169/2011 for the European market and on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Food Safety Modernization Act for the U.S. market. Furthermore, the white paper provides practical tips for the hygienic handling of fresh foods.
