(2) Food Allergen TestsThe NISSIN FOODS Group will develop a new food allergen testing method to create an environment where people with food allergies can eat with safety.In addition to food allergen tests of mandatory label items in Japan that has been conducted thus far, we will advance research and development on a new technology that enables protein-based simultaneous quantitative allergen tests of recommended label items in Japan. We will improve both the quality and quantity of our allergen testing by adopting new testing methods that are highly accurate, simple, and convenient, and we will conduct more than 100,000 allergen tests in total by 2030. (3) Meat AlternativesThe global population is growing rapidly and is expected to reach 10 billion by 2050, which has raised concerns about a significant protein shortage under the current food system. Increasing the use of plant proteins with a lower environmental impact will cause the reconstruction of a sustainable food system.NISSIN FOOD PRODUCTS is utilizing its knowledge of various FoodTech to replace the animal protein ingredients in our instant noodles with vegetable proteins. Our target is to increase the amount of vegetable protein used as instant noodle ingredients in Japan to 1,100 tons per year by 2030.(4) Food Loss and Waste Target 12.3 of the SDGs includes the goal of halving food loss and waste by 2030. This requires not only our own efforts, but efforts in all industries to collaborate and implement initiatives across the entire supply chain.In response, the NISSIN FOODS Group will work with companies in sales and distribution sectors to reduce food loss and waste throughout the supply chain. We will, by 2030, reduce the total amount of waste from sales and distribution in Japan by 50% compared to 2016.
