First 'not for EU' labels appear on supermarket food in Northern Ireland

From the start of October, businesses will be required to use such labels on all meat and on some dairy products moved to Northern Ireland

“Not for EU” labels have been spotted on own-brand meat products sold at Asda.

The first “not for EU” labels have appeared on food products sold in Northern Ireland, in a sign for consumers of the changes resulting from the Windsor framework deal that updated the North's post-Brexit arrangements.

As part of the framework — announced in February and designed to end the long-running dispute between the EU and the UK over the Northern Ireland protocol — new labelling is being introduced for certain retail goods moving from Britain to Northern Ireland.
