Making Your Food Business Sugar Smart

Is your food business Sugar Smart?

We’re asking caterers, cafes, restaurants and takeaways to work with us.

​

Local cafes, hospitals, logistics suppliers and other businesses have already started to take action. On this page you will find some resources to help you:

​

Inform your customers and your staff

• Posters for display around your workplace or near vending machines. 500ml sugary drinks poster and 330ml sugary drinks poster.

• App to scan food and drink products to find out how much sugar they contain – you can share this with colleagues.  Download the Sugar Smart app.

• Suggestions for four Sugar Smart challenges.

• Ministry of Food course. You could set up this 8-week cookery course covering knife skills through to more complex recipes. Or give GCDA a call as they run cookery clubs across the borough and can help you out here!
