Background

Estonian food industry providing information to consumer

Published: 03/02/2015

The Estonian Food Industry Association regularly organises roundtables and seminars about the Food Information to Consumers Regulation with representatives from the Ministry of Agriculture and the Veterinary and Food Board, who are keeping the food industry up to date with all the regulatory measures.

Consumer information campaigns have been undertaken on:

  • GDA labelling promotion campaign “GDA, a sign of your daily needs“ (2009-2011)
  • Food additives awareness raising campaign “Know your food
  • Estonian flag on Estonian products “Buy Estonian, support Estonian” to support Estonian producers.

For 21 years, the ETL has also organised a new product competition “Best Food Product of Estonia“. More than 2200 products from more than 200 companies have been submitted to the competition to date. The Best Food Product of Estonia 2015 is Gefilus Cappuccino-kefir by Valio Eesti AS.
