Environmental problems Pre packed food labelling

Foreign labels

In recent years, the sale of food imported from both within and outside the EC has become increasingly popular.   

Many of these products are labelled in foreign languages, all food products are subject to the food labelling regulations which state that labels should be in a language 'understood by the purchaser' i.e. English.  

Neither retailers nor wholesalers can therefore supply food without English labelling.
