FOOD INDUSTRY RESPONSE TO GOVERNMENT REPORT ON HEALTHY LIVING

March 4th, 2010

Responding to the launch of the ‘Healthy Weight, Healthy Lives: Two Years On’ report, Julian Hunt, FDF’s Director of Communications, says:

“We are encouraged to see that the Government feels its obesity strategy is helping to slow the rise in child obesity levels and we are pleased that its report acknowledges industry’s ongoing efforts to help consumers lead healthier lifestyles.

Our members have shown real leadership in their response to this challenging issue. Our ground-breaking work to change the recipes of popular foods, improve the nutrition information on retail packs and develop innovative workplace wellbeing schemes are all making a real difference. And we remain committed to working in genuine partnership with the Government to keep the momentum going.”
