Best Answer

Regulations concerning food labeling will differ from country to country. In the United States, all food items must have some labeling so it can be identified. What is required might depend upon whether it is business-to-business (wholesale) or a retail package. With bulk loads, the only labeling might be the Bill of Lading or Purchase Order. Labeling requirements for retail packaging are extensive and will ID the product and the manufacturer or distributor, in addition to net contents, ingredients, instructions for use and nutritional information.
