Codex Committee on Food Labelling

The Codex Committee on Food Labelling is a global group that develops standards for how food products should be labeled. Its goal is to ensure labels provide accurate, clear, and consistent information for consumers, helping them make safe and informed choices. The committee collaborates with countries and industry stakeholders to create guidelines on ingredients, nutrition facts, allergens, and claims. These standards also facilitate fair trade by reducing misunderstandings and disputes. Overall, the committee's work promotes food safety, transparency, and consumer confidence worldwide.
