The Impact of Sustainability Labelling on Consumers' Evaluation and Choice of Food Products: A Systematic Literature Review

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The last five years of research on sustainability labelling, reported in 175 journal articles, documents its effectiveness in increasing consumer choices of more sustainable food products. Some sustainability labels come out as stronger than others and their impact varies across products, countries, and individual consumers, depending on label

From Global Standards to Local Compliance: Implementation Heterogeneity in Cocoa Certification in Indonesia

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Certified companies translate voluntary sustainability standards (VSS) into local practice, yet little is known about how company‐level implementation of VSS relates to farmer compliance. This paper examines Rainforest Alliance (RA) implementation by three certified companies in the Indonesian cocoa sector. Drawing on compliance and regulatory

Deforestation‐Free Cocoa: Implications for Organizational Adaptation and Compliance Costs

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mandatory due diligence is an emerging policy instrument for addressing global environmental challenges, yet how such regulations reshape firm‐level organizational structures and generate compliance costs remains poorly understood. Drawing on organizational theory, this study examines how companies in the German cocoa and chocolate sector ...

The Impact of Glycation on Protein Digestibility

open access: yesChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
Schematic overview of how protein glycation affects digestibility and downstream nutritional consequences. Glycation‐derived structural modifications reduce protease accessibility, leading to limited hydrolysis and altered peptide generation. These changes decrease amino acid bioavailability and may subsequently contribute to microbiome alterations ...

Perspectives in biomedicine: Superfoods and antioxidant power classification

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The market value of natural food antioxidants will double to 8 billion USD by 2033, driven by a global consumer demand for ‘clean label’ products and proactive wellness solutions. However, the industrial application and health labelling (commercial brands) of these compounds remain severely constrained by inconsistent analytical methods.
