@ShareAction The Good Food Fund in partnership with @AscensionGrp @BigSocietyCap and @ImpUrbanHealth prove that brands don't have to compromise on taste to provide healthier and accessible foods. Innovation is being driven by the SME's, but the power still sits with the incumbent brands.

Supermarkets shape our diets. @ShareAction are leading a coalition of 100+ investors calling for Tesco to set targets to increase its proportion of sales from healthier products. https://t.co/NrGBfVqI02

ShareAction is joining a group of insitutional and individual investors to file a health resolution at the UK's largest supermarket.
This is a material risk for investors: Retailers who don’t keep-up or get ahead of the regulatory curve risk over-exposure to financial risk and missing-out on the potential to capitalise on growing consumer demand in this area.
