Organic Processing and Trade Association

Joint AöL, OPTA Europe and Meisterernst Rechtsanwälte Guide for Business on the Implementation of Directive (EUà 2024/825)

On 27 September entered into force Directive (EU) 2024/825 on Empowering Consumers for the Green Transition, the so-called Empco Directive. This law sets clear boundaries on what companies can and cannot say about the sustainability of their products. 

We have prepared a Comprehensive Guide for Food Businesses on the Implementation of the Directive (EU) 2024/825  to support organic operators in complying with the new obligations stemming from the Directive.

The guide is the result of a unique collaboration between AöL, OPTA Europe and the law firm Meisterernst Rechtsanwälte.
