Poor nutrition is one of the most significant public health challenges facing the world today. Obesity and diseases related to it, including heart disease, stroke, diabetes and certain cancers, are on a trajectory to become a global pandemic, affecting countries of all income levels. At the same time, undernutrition continues to affect billions of people globally, including in countries suffering from the double burden of both obesity and undernutrition. Given the pervasive and increasing role of their products in diets in many countries, food and beverage manufacturers can make powerful contributions to addressing these challenges.
This report summarizes findings from the inaugural Access to Nutrition Index (ATNI) Global Index, which rates 25 of the world's largest food and beverage manufacturers on their nutrition-related commitments, performance and disclosure globally. ATNI is not intended to name and shame companies, but instead to highlight strong practices and to provide a means for companies to bench mark their approach to nutrition against their peers and identify areas for improvement. The Index also aims to serve as an independent source of information for stakeholders interested in engaging with the food and beverage industry on nutrition issues.
