Overview<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

As part of the UK Government\u2019s strategy to reduce obesity levels and improve population diet, the Food (Promotions and Placement) legislation from October 2022. This legislation restricts multibuy promotions and prominent positioning of High Fat Salt and Sugar (HFSS) products in retail settings (both food and non-food retailers) both in-store and online (see regulation here<\/a> and guidance here<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This landmark legislation aims to help improve public health and is predicted to have a substantial impact on the way products are marketed. Assessing how key stakeholders within the food system are reacting to the legislation and what preparations they are taking ahead of its introduction will provide important insight into the extent and breadth of legislation implementation and enforcement, highlighting support needs and potential unintended consequences.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
