Question 34059 — agri-food

Summary

Mr. Nicolas Démoulin alerts the Minister of Agriculture and Food to Ordinance No. 2018-1128 of December 12, 2018 resulting from the so-called EGalim law of October 30, 2018 for the balance of commercial relations in the agricultural and food sector and healthy, sustainable and accessible food. This provides for the supervision of promotional operations in value and volume, a framework concretized by Ordinance No. 2018-1128 of 12 December 2018 relating to the raising of the threshold for resale at a loss and the supervision of promotions for foodstuffs and certain food products. However, certain products under the wine sector's appellation achieve a very significant part of their turnover under promotion. For example, in the Muscat de Frontignan appellation, we see that 48% of annual sales are made over just four months, or 33%. of the time, while 60% of turnover is achieved under promotion. To deal with this pitfall, the text adopted on Tuesday June 2, 2020 by the joint committee on the bill relating to various provisions linked to the health crisis, other urgent measures as well as the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union provides in its article 2 a new authorization to legislate by ordinance which should make it possible to modify the order of December 12, 2018 in order not to apply the regulatory provisions for products with a marked seasonal character. He asks to what extent VDN AOP, half-spirit, half-wine products, will be integrated into the scope of the future order modifying the order of December 12, 2018.
