EmpCo in Practice: How Food Brands Are Preparing for September 2026

Hear directly from a global food company as they share first-hand experience of preparing sustainability claims for September 2026

As the EU’s Empowering Consumers Directive (EmpCo) approaches its September 2026 application date, food and beverage organizations are moving beyond understanding the regulation to implementing practical changes across sustainability claims, labels, supplier verification and internal governance.

Whether you’re joining the conversation for the first time or attended one of our previous EmpCo webinars, this session focuses on implementation. Our speakers will be sharing practical experiences and operational approaches rather than explaining the regulation itself.

Join FoodChain ID and a guest speaker from the food industry for a moderated discussion exploring how organizations are preparing for increased scrutiny of sustainability claims. Hear directly from a company navigating these challenges as they share practical insights, lessons learned and the realities of turning EmpCo requirements into day-to-day business processes.

Rather than focusing on the legislation itself, this discussion will explore what implementation looks like in practice, from reviewing existing claims to strengthening supplier verification, improving internal governance and building robust evidence to support sustainability communications.

During this webinar, we’ll discuss:

– Reviewing existing sustainability claims and labels

– Identifying high-risk claims that require stronger substantiation

– Strengthening supplier verification and traceability

– Aligning Sustainability, Regulatory, Quality, Procurement and Marketing teams

– Building robust claim substantiation and supporting documentation

– Practical implementation challenges, lessons learned and priorities ahead of September 2026
