Guidelines for Tuck Shop Operators, Service Providers and School Vendors - NSNP

In 2024, guidelines were issued for food vendors in and around schools. They are intended to promote the availability of healthy food items in schools, provide nutritional education, and increase awareness of safe food handling practices. The guidelines include recommendations for healthy foods to be supplied by caterers, and a list of unhealthy foods that should be eliminated from the school food environment. These nutritional guidelines are not mandatory, but they provide a framework that schools are encouraged to follow.

Incoming - Warning Labels

In 2023, the South African Minister of Health issued a new draft regulation on labelling food products under the Foodstuffs, Cosmetics and Disinfectants Act, 1972 (Act No.54 of 1972). It proposes that pre-packed foods must bear front-of-package warning labels when they contain added saturated fat, added sugar, added sodium, or total saturated fatty acids, in excess of specified cut-off values, as well as artificial sweeteners. Since the public comment period ended, there has no been update on an implementation date.

The Strategy for the Prevention and Management of Obesity in South Africa 2023-2028

The purpose of this strategy is to disrupt the obesogenic environment in South Africa which is compounded by poor socio-economic conditions and restricted choices to adopt a healthy lifestyle. The goal of this strategy is to: “Reduce the prevalence of obesity and diet-related non communicable disease in the South African population”. There are specific strategic objectives to create an enabling environment with available and easily accessible healthy food in workplaces and schools, and to facilitate equitable access to physical activity (PA) opportunities.

National Strategic Plan for the Prevention and Control of Non-Communicable Diseases, 2022 – 2027

The plan aims to move South Africa closer to Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 3.4: To reduce, by one-third, premature mortality from NCDs+ through prevention and treatment and promote mental health and well-being by 2030 through the progressive improvement of wellness and reduction of premature morbidity, disability and mortality from NCDs. This includes tackling risk factors such as unhealthy diet, physical inactivity, tobacco use, and harmful alcohol use. Within the plan, there are deliverables to undertake regular screenings and awareness campaigns on obesity among children and adults, and promote physical activity through campaigns and conducive urban design. The plan also contains a target to halt the rise in obesity and achieve a 10% relative reduction in insufficient physical activity by 2025.
