    In Denmark we already have some companies mark European products with a ⭐ on the price tag.

    The issue is, that they only consider the company that sells it and not the country of origin. So let’s say a Spanish company imports raisins from California and distributes them, with their own company name, they get marked as European.

    It is a tricky line to set especially for products that maybe have mixed ingredients or parts comming from multiple destinations

      In Australia they are marked with percent by weight that are from Australia. It’s voluntary but I think required if you claim to be an Australian product.

    Wherever you are in the EU, send a message to your local store and ask them to have a European product tag. The more people ask, the more it’s a thing they’ll want to do.
