Change product standard requirements to reduce food waste – Action Library (EN)

This resource focuses on changing product standard requirements to reduce food waste, emphasizing the elimination of strict cosmetic standards that reject imperfect food. By adjusting these standards, retailers can reduce waste, minimize GHG emissions, and boost financial returns. It also promotes redistributing surplus food and educating consumers about the value of imperfect products, which can significantly lower food waste and contribute to sustainability goals.
