Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Food labels provide more than just text, pictures and numbers. They serve as a connection point for the producer and the consumer and provide essential information about food products. In this article we aim to analyse the role and importance of food labels in communicating with the consumer and the type of information they provide about food products. We also aim to explore the role of the translator in ensuring effective communication between the producer and the consumer, addressing issues related to food industry terminology, cultural adaptation, while emphasizing the importance of providing accurate translations in terms of form and content, in compliance with the regulations in force.
