31 Jan 2025
Topic — The European Commission is consulting on strategies to improve the cross-border movement of goods.
Message — Mars wants a single packaging design for all EU markets through harmonized labeling requirements. They request stricter enforcement against national rules that create barriers to trade.12
Why — Harmonization would reduce the high costs associated with redesigning packaging for different countries.3
