The transitional period for Australia’s new Country of Origin labelling requirements is almost over and from 1 July 2018 all businesses involved in the sale of food product around Australia must comply with the new requirements. So if you’re not prepared already, it’s time to ensure you know how your products need to be labelled and have that appropriate labelling in place. There’s a suite of resources available from the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) to help you through the process, including a comprehensive Country of Origin food labelling guide – available for download here.
You’ll also find help in the comprehensive guide to the new CoOL system, including olive product specifics from the AOA, in the June edition of Olivegrower & Processor. Subscribers can login and view back issues here – and if you’re not a subscriber you can do so here .
