In cooperation with Arcadia International we are proud to offer a webinar on food labelling legislation in Brazil.
The webinar aims to provide an overview of the regulatory framework on food labelling of prepacked foods applicable in Brazil, covering all the general mandatory requirements, nutrition information and claims.
The present webinar will focus, among others, on the RDC No 259/2002 – Technical Regulation on Labelling of Prepacked Foodstuffs and RDC No 360/2003 – Technical Regulation on Nutrition Labelling of Prepacked foods. It will also provide some insights on ongoing policy discussions that may impact national food labelling requirements (e.g., nutrition signposting/warnings)
