About us
F.O.O.D. (Fighting Obesity through Offer and Demand) started in 2009 in 6 countries as a European project co-funded by the European Commission (DG SANTE). Since 2012, it has been an independent programme existing in 11 countries: Belgium, Czech Republic, France, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Slovakia, Sweden, Austria, Romania, and Hungary. All partners agreed to join forces in developing adapted communication tools in order to promote healthy eating habits during the working day. Benefiting from the unique network of meal vouchers used by millions of workers each day, messages and actions could be led towards two complementary target groups: workers and restaurants. The F.O.O.D. programme uses an original approach to promote balanced nutrition. It aims to improve the nutritional quality of the food offered in restaurants and to facilitate consumer choice through improved information and increased awareness, making the healthy choice more obvious and more accessible. The FOOD programme promotes healthier lifestyles and working practices by giving individuals the knowledge and tools to act. The two main objectives are : - To educate employees in order to help them improve their nutritional choices - To improve the nutritional quality of the meals offered in restaurants by liaising with food providers, such as restaurant owners, chefs and waiters

On the World Food day, the 2023 edition of the FOOD programme barometer was released and underlined the need to secure and increase the purchasing power for food. According to 47,327 workers for 18 countries in the world, budget is the first challenge to access healthy food. The restaurants that participated to the barometer confirmed the tendency, while at the same time, noticing a growing need for balanced meals amongst their clients.
While more than 1 out of 2 workers declare cutting their food expenses because of budget constraints; they are also more and more demanding on qualitative meals. The 2023 edition of the The FOOD programme barometer lays the accent on the need to secure the #purchasingpower for #food. They are also 1 out of 2 workers from 18 countries who confirm that their #mealvouchers help them getting access to #healthy meals; and 77% of the 47,327 respondents say that if they benefited from additional food budget, they would choose healthier and better-quality meals. #foodbudget RESTwithEU #healthyeating #worldfoodday Edenred Aneta Martišková
