Question 20671 — agri-food

Summary

Mr. Jean-Marie Fiévet draws the attention of the Minister of State, Minister for Ecological and Inclusive Transition, to the fight against food waste in supermarkets. In accordance with Law No. 2016-138 of February 11, 2016 relating to the fight against food waste, each supermarket of more than 400 m² must seek a partnership with a food aid association to transfer its unsold food to it rather than throw them away or destroy them. However, according to an Ipsos study, one in two stores is not collected every day, which inevitably means that fresh products with a short expiration date, suitable for consumption, are destroyed. Furthermore, 13% of specialized non-food supermarkets do not donate to associations and destroy their goods. Therefore, he asks him for the coercive provisions what does the Government intend to put in place to combat these practices and the measures that can be taken to promote companies that fight against waste.
