Why label fresh produce?
Stand out from the crowd & minimize your packaging
An environmentally conscious choice
An environmentally conscious choice
Labeling fresh produce is an effective way to minimize packaging, reduce packaging costs, and reduce your impact on the environment. Loose fruit can also help reduce food waste, as consumers buy only what they need.
Using our certified compostable labels is an environmentally conscious choice. On disposal, in a home compost or industrial composting facility, end-of-life performance has been independently verified by internationally recognized certification bodies.
Reasons to label fresh produce
Compliance
Fresh produce labeling ensures compliance with government and regulatory bodies demonstrating your produce meets safety and quality standards.
Consumer information
Labels provide consumers with valuable information about the produce including variety, origin and growing method – organic, conventional, or other growing practices.
Identification
Barcoded fresh produce enables checkout efficiency, item-level identification and pricing accuracy.
Traceability
Lot/batch codes are used for traceability purposes and also allows accurate retailer stock control of individual products.
Branding & marketing
Showcasing a brand on produce provides differentiation on price and quality, allowing consumers to make informed choices.
Inventory & pricing
Barcodes and price look-up (PLU) information streamline the checkout process and inventory management to help retailers keep track of stock levels, reduce waste, and manage pricing more efficiently.
Promote ethical & sustainable farming practices
Indicate whether produce is organic, fairtrade, or sustainably grown, helping consumers make informed choices that support environmentally conscious practices.
Packaging minimisation
Reducing single-use packaging to essential requirements is key to reducing packaging waste. Fresh produce labels can help do this and also potentially reduce your packaging costs.
Fraud prevention
Fresh produce labels can help verify produce authenticity to reduce the risk of consumers being misled and ensure they get the produce they are paying for.
