In brief: Sustainability & traceability
Symrise has successfully obtained the FSC Chain of Custody (CoC) certification for ingredients derived from forest products. This eco-credential breaks new ground by considering environmental and social responsibility for users of fragrances and flavors derived from the forest. Continuing with its approach of sourcing its key raw materials sustainably and working closely with FSC, Symrise spent almost a year in building a robust framework upon which consumers can feel confident they are using fragrances and flavors derived from sustainable sources.

In the UK, Marks & Spencer has launched a new, summer-long food marketing campaign that shines a spotlight on what M&S claims are "unrivaled beef traceability standards." As highlighted in the campaign, M&S says it is the only national retailer in the UK that can trace every piece of beef it sells – whether it’s in a prepared meal, a sandwich or a prime cut – all the way back to every farm and animal from which it is sourced.

In brief: Business
The European Dairy Association (EDA) has welcomed the conclusion of a political agreement on trade between the EU and Mexico. “The dedication of EU Commissioner for Trade Cecilia Malmström and EU Commissioner for Agriculture Phil Hogan in promoting trade has been shown since the beginning of these re-negotiations with Mexico,” says EDA secretary general Alexander Anton. “The 2000 agreement did not include agriculture products. We already see that this new agreement will grant us better market access.” Both economies value the importance of their dairy sector. To underline this, EDA published its Dairy Trade Focus on Mexico showcasing both industries. The Mexican and EU dairy industry have both increased their milk production between 2010-2016, with + 7 percent and +11 percent respectively. Mexico is 82 percent self-sufficient in dairy products and has a strong interest in importing EU dairy products like cheese and butter. Mexico appears poised to enact new restrictions on the use of common cheese names such as “parmesan,” “munster” and “feta” for products sold in Mexico, a development that runs counter to existing trade agreements with the US, according to preliminary reports on the European Union (EU)-Mexico free trade agreement. Full details of the agreement have not yet been released, but early information indicates Mexico will force cheese marketers from Mexico and the United States to phase out the use of some generic names, yielding to the EU’s desire to monopolize those cheese markets.

Under the proposal, TINE SA will invest in the development while Dairygold‘s investment in the project which it says will provide a Brexit-proof route to market for locally produced milk. This new dedicated Jarlsberg factory will significantly increase production capacity with a potential to produce up to 20,000 tons annually.

Nestlé UK and Ireland has taken the wrapping off a major GB£3 million upgrade to its York head office site as employees get their first glimpse of a brand new reception, restaurant and meeting area. The work, which began in 2017, has taken around nine months to complete and transforms the entire ground floor of Nestlé House, on the city’s Haxby Road, home to several of the company’s key functions as well as its confectionery headquarters. Meanwhile, Nestlé has also inaugurated a state-of-the-art pet food factory in Teno, Chile. The factory will produce high-quality pet food for dogs and cats, meeting growing demand from pet owners in Chile. With an investment of US$120 million, the factory is claimed to be among the most modern in the world, ensuring the highest standards of quality and food safety. The new site will directly employ 154 people, more than 70 percent of whom come from neighboring areas and 40 percent of whom are less than 30 years of age. Also this month, Nestlé joined together with partners across the food industry to submit a public comment to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) supporting the Clean Power Plan, which regulates greenhouse gas emissions.
