## France vs. 'Shrinkflation': Starting July 1, All 'Shrinked' Products Must Be Labelled For Consumers

Authored by ibtimes.co.uk

Although most examples occur state-side, "shrinkflation," the tactic of reducing product size while maintaining the same (or sometimes higher) price, is occurring worldwide.

Because of this, France has recently taken a significant step in the battle against 'shrinkflation' by mandating that all products subject to downsizing must be labelled accordingly starting July 1.

According to a report, this legislation addresses the subtle reduction in product sizes while maintaining or even increasing prices, a practice often unnoticed by consumers.

Starting July 1, manufacturers must prominently display information about any product size or quantity reductions on the packaging.

UFC-Que Choisir president Marie-Amandin Stevenin pointed out that the legislation only covers products that can be bought in-store.

Encouraging manufacturers to uphold ethical standards and commit to transparent practices benefits consumers and businesses in the long run.

France's initiative to label 'shrunk' products marks a significant step towards promoting transparency and consumer empowerment. »
