Goal action plan

We will deliver the program at retails, where we can reach citizens with various ages, even in rural region. We will collaborate with local governments and food retailers to provide the program, as well as the daily support for healthier shopping. A novel protocol of the program called "COOP Healthier Shopping Support" started 2020 at COOP retails in Aomori and is now under operation. We will evaluate and publish on its usefulness in 2023.
