The brief

On 1 October 2021 new pre-packed for direct sale (PPDS) allergen labelling requirements came into effect in England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland.

This change meant that PPDS foods must be labelled with a full list of ingredients, with allergens2 emphasised.

We are looking to commission a contractor who can design and deliver a mixed method evaluation of these new requirements.

The evaluation should engage three key stakeholder groups to build a holistic picture of the new labelling requirements’ effects: • consumers with food hypersensitivities (FHS consumers), who were the intended beneficiaries of the changes. • food business operators (FBOs), who are responsible for implementing the changes within their businesses. • local authorities (LAs), who are responsible for monitoring FBO compliance with food safety regulations, of which PPDS is one part.
