Albert Heijn is the market leader in supermarkets in The Netherlands. The purpose of Albert Heijn is: Together we make eating better the easy choice. For everyone. Albert Heijn wants to make a meaningful contribution to a healthy, social and sustainable society. If we want to preserve the value of food and drink for future generations, the food system will need a major overhaul. That’s why Albert Heijn wants to be crystal clear about where food comes from, how it’s made and what its ingredients are. We also want to reduce the impact of our products so that our customers can easily make sustainable choices and never doubt whether they’re doing the right thing. True Price is one of the ideas to give better insight to customers to help them make a more sustainable choice.

Article: Is Europe failing on import diversification?
https://www.bruegel.org/blog-post/europe-failing-import-diversification
In the discussion on European Union strategic sovereignty – the idea that the EU should not be dependent on other economies – there are broadly two approaches. The first is that a certain degree of self-sufficiency (autarky) is needed, at least in ‘strategic’ industries. The second is that strategic sovereignty can be achieved by ensuring that strategically important imports from one country can be substituted by imports from another – in other words, through sufficient import diversification. But to what extent are Europe’s imports already diversified, and how has diversification developed over time?

https://qz.com/2180322/the-controversial-higg-sustainability-index-is-being-suspended

A New York Times article called out the index as too favorable to synthetic materials made from fossil fuels; the Intercept dug into the metric’s controversial ties to fast fashion; and the Norway Consumer Authority banned its use (link in Norwegian) in marketing to consumers.
