25. Role of Grocery Code Lessons learn from Australia and the United Kingdom Grocery Code: In Australia, the launch of a grocery code in 2015 was prompted by complaints about how grocers treated suppliers, said Tanya Barden, chief executive of the Australian Food and Grocery Council. In the UK, the code has been mandatory for the 14 largest chains since 2010. “It was designed to prevent retailers from transferring excessive risks and unexpected costs to suppliers,” explains Mark White, the current UK adjudicator. “The cornerstone of the Australian code is the requirement for retailers to trade in good faith,” Barden says. The code proposed in Canada shares certain aspects with the British and Australian models except on one important point: it also wants to integrate suppliers as well as retailers. This objective is more complicated to achieve, judges Tacon .

27. Summary: Reducing the cost of healthier food prices through management of taxes, input costs, labor, and overall food production Aligning fitness programs with all age groups as part of the overall management of ESG Implementing food traceability including biodiversity and human rights as part of managing the overall food ingredients Moving product offerings to healthier food options including alternative healthier food ingredients Driving affordable food choices through the leveraging of technology Tougher reporting standards around food nutrition from the food supply chain Embracing food nutrition programs as part of the overall food programs for schools Addressing land management including nutrients, water, and overall sustainable farming practices.\ More support for organic farming production Revamping taxes and regulatory reforms as it relates to food production
