Nutrition labelling requirements in Senegal

Packaged food sold in Senegal must carry a nutrition declaration under ASN - Étiquetage des denrées alimentaires préemballées (Codex-aligné). This page covers the Senegal - ASN (Codex-aligné) format: French per Association Sénégalaise de Normalisation. A compliant Senegalese nutrition label declares 7 mandatory nutrients: énergie, protéines, matières grasses, dont saturées, glucides, dont sucres and sodium. Values are declared per 100 g or 100 ml and per serving, both columns required, with energy in both kJ and kcal, and sodium rather than salt. The panel is headed "Information nutritionnelle". French is required on pack. There is no mandatory front-of-pack warning scheme. NFL builds a print-ready Senegalese nutrition label from your recipe, applying the rounding rules and reference intakes for Senegal automatically, and exports it as PDF, PNG, SVG, JPG or EPS.
