Last year, our Tracking for Health briefing showed that only Sainsbury’s and Marks & Spencer (M&S) had commitments to increase sales of healthier products. A year on, we are starting to see very encouraging signs that the retail industry as a whole is shifting in the right direction.

Now, retailers representing 60 per cent of the UK grocery retail market have made commitments to increase healthier sales across at least some of their products including ALDI UK, Lidl, M&S, Sainsbury’s and Tesco.
