AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Ultra-Processed Food Fight: HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and former FDA chief David Kessler are teaming up to challenge the 1958 GRAS loophole, after new federal data shows ultra-processed foods make up 55% of adult calories and nearly 62% for kids—San Francisco is also suing manufacturers, echoing tobacco-era litigation. Food Safety Crackdown: Maharashtra’s FDA enforcement is hitting hotels and restaurants hard, with operators rushing to food-safety consultants after licence suspensions and improvement notices tied to hygiene and processing gaps. Cost-of-Living Pressure on Menus: Malaysia’s Menu Rahmah push has reached 3,210 registered food-and-beverage premises, aiming to ease everyday prices via expanded operator participation and daily-necessities sales programmes. Energy Costs Ripple Into Food: UK inflation is expected to jump as Ofgem raises the energy price cap, adding pressure to household budgets—an indirect hit to food demand and operating costs. Hospitality Trade Events: Guam’s PHARE expo opens Wednesday at Hyatt Regency Guam, spotlighting food safety training, alcohol management and new products for hotels and restaurants. Sustainable Farming Angle: Agrivoltaics coverage highlights how solar panels over cropland can boost land productivity while generating power, with global capacity now in the tens of gigawatts.
