A year ago, the Swiss retailer Migros said goodbye to the Nutri-Score. Now the food company Nestl\u00e9 is also abolishing the Nutri-Score system - at least for all its products that are only sold in Switzerland. Nestl\u00e9 brands sold internationally will retain the nutritional rating system for the time being.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Nutri-Score on food packaging provides consumers with information about the nutritional value of products. In 2019, Nestl\u00e9 took on a pioneering role with the introduction of the Nutri-Score and was one of the first companies to introduce the Nutri-Score across its entire product portfolio in Switzerland<\/strong>. However, general support for this form of nutritional labelling has decreased significantly in the country since then, according to the company. Today, Nestl\u00e9 brands are often the only ones in their product categories to carry the Nutri-Score.<\/p>\n

The low prevalence of the Nutri-Score in Switzerland and the declining political support in the country<\/strong> are responsible for the fact that the Nutri-Score can no longer fulfil its function of enabling comparability between similar products.<\/p>

Local brands without Nutri-Score<\/h2>\n

In view of this situation in Switzerland, Nestl\u00e9 has decided to gradually remove the Nutri-Score from its local brands Cailler, Thomy, Leisi, Incarom, Chokito, Henniez, Nestea and Romanette. This decision only applies to these Brands that are sold exclusively in Switzerland<\/strong>. All other Nestl\u00e9 brands sold in Switzerland continue to carry the Nutri-Score. Nestl\u00e9 continues to support and implement the Nutri-Score in other European countries where governments promote this nutritional labelling.<\/p>\n

Nestl\u00e9 emphasises that the full nutritional information will continue to appear on the product packaging. QR codes are also added<\/strong>, which give consumers access to detailed information on ingredients, nutritional values and recommended portion sizes as well as nutritional tips.<\/p>\n

The abolition of the Nutri-Score for Nestl\u00e9's local brands in Switzerland will take place gradually so that no packaging is wasted.<\/strong> From mid-2025 to the end of 2026, the changeover will then take place brand by brand.<\/p>\n
