The Food, Beverage and Cosmetics Law Review: United Kingdom

Published on 18 January 2022

Overview

RPC is excited to announce that the UK chapter of the very first Food, Beverage and Cosmetics Law Review has been published and is available to read online (link below).

Led by RPC's Ciara Cullen and Ben Mark, co-heads of the Food and Drink group, a team from across the firm collaborated to produce the content. The result is a high-level but comprehensive review of the issues facing the sectors. Topics range from brands and IP to marketing and advertising, product labelling, M&A, competition, supply chain issues and product safety and compliance. The chapter also features a round-up of the previous year and a horizon scanning section, which looks at the key trends and likely focal points for 2022.

It's the perfect guide for new entrants to the UK market, as well as start-ups. It’s also ideal for anyone wanting a high-level refresher of the key issues and themes to consider when operating in the UK's thriving and highly competitive food, drink and cosmetic industries.

We are very proud of our work on the chapter and hope you enjoy reading it. For any questions, please contact Ciara Cullen, Ben Mark or your usual RPC contact.
