Simon Rawson: Director of Corporate Campaigns at Shareaction on Unilever being forced to disclose more nutritional data on their products

from Best of Business · host Newstalk ZB

The little guy is using leverage on one of the largest public companies in the world.  UK company Unilever has agreed to publish more rigorous data on fat, sugar and salt in their products after a minor shareholder forced a resolution.  Shareaction, a Ginger Group charity, got enough shareholder backing to force the changes after a review found that only 17% of Unilever's food and drink sales were of high nutritional standards, compared to the 61% they claimed.  Director of Corporate Campaigns at Shareaction Simon Rawson joined Mike Hosking. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
