Food companies’ commitments and practices on food environments and nutrition in Belgium: A detailed assessment. Company assessments and recommendations using the Business Impact Assessment on obesity and population nutrition (BIA-Obesity)

 The BIA-Obesity project studied for the first time the commitments and practices of Belgium’s largest food companies in the area of nutrition, health and obesity prevention. For each company, their nutrition-related commitments and practices were assessed and summarized in a scorecard based on an internationally standardized method. The study allows us to see where companies score well in their contribution to a healthier food environment, where they can do better and how they perform compared to their peers.
