フードバンク認証制度の運用開始について | 消費者庁

This page announces the Consumer Affairs Agency and Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries will launch a food bank certification system starting April 1, 2026. The system operates in two phases: first, registering active food banks based on applications; second, certifying food banks meeting the requirements outlined in the Food Donation Guideline. The initiative aims to provide reliable food donation destination information to donors, increase food donations to food banks, and promote food loss reduction while building social trust in food donation practices.
