Consumer Goods Forum (CFG)

The Consumer Goods Forum (CFG) is a global organisation of 400 consumer goods companies, bringing together retailers and manufacturers to implement wide scale positive change through global collaborative action.

It aims to help address key challenges impacting the industry, including environmental and social sustainability, health, food safety and product data accuracy.

Importance to the Egg Industry

Many of the opportunities and issues that we face as an industry can’t be addressed by individual companies alone or by collaborating regionally. CGF’s global, cross-value-chain perspective is critical in the following areas:

• Sustainability – acting together to position the industry as a leader in protecting against climate change, reducing waste and promoting compliance with good working and environmental practices.
• Food Safety – increasing confidence in the delivery of safe food globally through the continuous improvement of food safety management systems.
• Health and Wellness – empowering consumers to make the right decisions and helping them to adopt healthier lifestyles.
• End-to-End Value Chain & Standards – identifying and implementing global standards, protocols and principles for the management of data, processes and capabilities that span the value chain.
• Knowledge and Best Practice Sharing
