COOL and FTC labelling
I am caught in between FTC , COOL and Customer requirements and if someone out there can assist
we ship product into USA and customer mandates we have country of origin on each retail unit and on the outside of each shipper
we deal with commodity items which can come from one or several countries
1) Can I have 2 or more country of origins on the labels?
2) what do I put if I get a raw product from USA and all I do is put it in a package and send it back to USA? is "packed in Canada from USA ingredients" Ok
3) what if I blend 2 or more products from different countries without major ' substantial transformation"? Can I use packed in Canada from ingredients of China,South Africa, Brazil, USA
please assist
I am not a labeling expert so I don't know the answer.....but am very curious to hear from someone in the know.
I am not an expert either but would like to hear the answer)
Also, I have a question of that nature: is there a difference, from regulatory standpoint, between COO and Product of... on the retail label for fresh cut veggies?
Thanks
1) No
2) Origin USA processed in CAN
3) Is this a medley?
