Very soon, from July 1, 2019, on the shelves of Russian outlets, distributors should place products from natural milk separately from those food products that are made from surrogates of milk fat.

At the same time, “dairy” analogues must be provided with a special marking, which indicates that the product is not made from natural milk.

Such information was shared with the public by the press center of the State Trade Committee.

It will not be superfluous to note that these innovations were developed by leading experts of the Ministry of Industry and Trade and were adopted by members of the Russian government.

It is reported that the Ministry of Industry and Trade has initiated a ban on the implementation of provisions made using vegetable fats on the same counter with dairy products in order to simplify the consumer's choice of natural dairy products among the variety of goods presented.

Farit Gindullin, head of the trade association of the Republic of Bashkiria, commented on the innovations, noting that retail chains that value their reputation among buyers will definitely respond to innovations in the rules of implementation as soon as possible.
