EUROPEAN APPLE PROMOTIONAL PROGRAMME 2007-2010 France - Italy - Netherlands
INTRODUCTION Product : fresh apples. Target : 3 European markets : France, Italy and the Netherlands.
INTRODUCTION Context : - At a European level, there is now a general awareness regarding the increase of obesity among adults and children and the need to promote a healthier lifestyle. - In European countries, consumers do not eat enough fruits and vegetables, due to several factors : insufficient knowledge, lack of accessibility and convenience, competition of unhealthy snacks, increase of meals taken outside. - Eating not enough fruits and vegetables has a bad impact on health and various bodies have recently developed campaigns to boost F&V consumption. - Increasing importance of the workplace as number of hours spent in the office keep rising. This is a good place to stimulate the consumption.
INTRODUCTION In France, the PNNS (Programme National Nutrition Santé) encourages the consumption of at least 5 F&V every day. INTERFEL (Interprofession des Fruits et Légumes frais) also promotes the consumption of F&V from 5 to 10 per day and more recently, has developed the concept that “half of the plate” should be F&V. In Italy, INRAN (National Institute for Research on Food and Nutrition) regularly publishes Guidelines for Healthy Nutrition (last version: 2003). Furthermore, a 5-a-day program has been developed in 2003/2006 by UNAPROA (National Union of Fruit and Vegetable Producers), under the label “5 colors of wellness”. In the Netherlands, the Dutch promotion office for fruits and vegetables promotes the consumption of F&V.
