In 2014, the City of Philadelphia issued Executive Order 4-14, establishing citywide nutrition standards for foods and beverages purchased, prepared or served by City agencies.
Nutrition standards are an evidence-based strategy to align meals and snacks with the latest dietary guidance. They are a model for other large institutions and employers, and send a market signal to suppliers to provide competitively priced healthy food options.
The Department of Public Health has also developed voluntary standards for hospitals interested in offering healthier options to their patients, staff, and visitors. Hospitals can join the Good Food, Healthy Hospitals Initiative. To learn more visit Food Fit Philly or the Nutrition and Physical Activity Program.
Required and recommended guidelines designed to help agencies that purchase, serve, sell, or otherwise provide food to clients, patients, employees and the general public.
This toolkit explains in everyday terms how smart procurement and preparation decisions can help your agency's food be healthy, delicious, and comply with the Philadelphia Nutrition Standards.
