Artem Belov: An important point when labeling dairy products is the loss due to unreadability of codes
The problem is getting worse due to the fact that milk is a perishable product, so we expect costs of 30-35 billion rubles due to these losses. It will be impossible to reverse. The cost of the product will increase by 2-3%, and we can only assume how much the price will increase. There will be big losses for small and middle enterprises, many of them may leave the market. For large companies, there will also be losses", said Artem Belov. - At a meeting last week, it was announced that little is ready, so it is unlikely that the labeling project will be launched this year. Our position is that the appropriateness of labeling is questionable. We are not participating in the experiment. In the dairy industry, there are no problems with falsification, which can be solved by labeling. We hope that we can convince the state that labeling is not appropriate for the industry.
