Food Labeling in Canada is a complex array of confusing regulations, rules and requirements that vary with product, pack size, serving size. FTC’s food label consulting expertise is there to guide you through the regulatory maze of laws and regulations, and help you bring your product to market.
In both the USA and Canada, the minimum requirement is the Common Name, Net Weight/Volume, Ingredient Declaration, Nutrition Facts table, producer name & contact information, and allergen declaration.
Canada requires bilingual (English/French) food labelling information on all sales. For sales in Québec, the font sizes must be greater than or equal to the English text.
We can evaluate nutrient content claims, negative claims, health claims as part of the review process to ensure that your label meets all regulatory requirements
The Canadian government requires that the Core information is bilingual, not necessarily the marketing text. Marketing text is any information that provides the consumer with information that is not part of the Core Information.
In practicality, to sell products in Canada, all text on Canadian food should be fully bilingual. Retailers will expect it, and the Quebec government strictly enforces violations of their language laws.
Food Labels are used extensively, aiming for a competitive advantage. They include Health Claims, Nutritent Content Claims, and Nutrition labelling Claims Negative Claim and Quality Claims.
