Food labeling requirements

If you are selling pre-packaged or frozen food (say at a Market Stall), you must include both a list of ingredients with percentages of each, and a Nutrition Information Panel. See the Food Standards Australia website for a USERGUIDE which lists foods exempt from this requirement – not many!

If your product contains all Australian ingredients, it may pay to add the Made in Australia logo to your package in addition to the above.

If you have only a few products that you need to label, you can make your own Nutrition Information Panel by going to: https://www.foodstandards.gov.au/industry/npc/Pages/nutrition-panel-calculator.aspx

You will find the instructions on the LHS of the page.

If you are a previous client of AIBI (ie you have completed one of our courses in the past, such as Food Costing, or Food Safety Supervisor) just call us and we will send you the step-by-step instructions.
