Etude paramétrique d’étiquetage et de la traçabilité des denrées alimentaires

Abstract

In an agrifood context characterized by recurring health crises, regulatory and commercial requirements in terms of labeling and traceability have been considerably reinforced. Our work consists of a field survey on the modality and conformity of foodstuffs presentation, through careful observation of some food products labeling. Overall, the consumer is adequately informed and in accordance with the statutory instrument. The mandatory informations are clearly and precisely indicated on the labeling for most foodstuffs. On the other hand, optional terms are also mentioned on the labeling. However, it should be noted that some producers do not comply with the regulations and their products are not presented in a compliant manner to consumers, some mandatory informations are not even indicated on the label and the traceability tool does not appear. Algeria have several statutory instrument relating to foodstuffs labeling and traceability. However, much remains to be done in terms of controlling the conformity of the foodstuff presentation term.
