Evidence on consumers’ perceptions, understanding and uses of the Nutri-Score to improve communication about its update: a qualitative study with shopping observations in France
Participants had a rather positive image of the Nutri-Score and its forthcoming update. Notwithstanding, to improve consumers' trust in the label, this study recommends launching an information campaign to explain its calculation method and reassure them that the Nutri-Score is a government-endorsed scheme as part of the national public health nutrition policy.
