Nutrition Information

The local Nutrition Labelling Scheme had come into force on 1 July 2010, which requires that prepackaged foods sold in local should bear nutrition labels (except those with exemption).

The Nutrition Labelling Scheme aims to assist consumers in making informed food choices, to encourage food manufacturers to apply sound nutrition principles in the formulation of foods and to regulate misleading or deceptive labels and claims.
