Müller sets new sugar reduction target
Müller has announced plans to lower sugar levels in its yoghurt products by 25% by next August.
The dairy giant is already more than halfway to this figure, having reduced sugar levels by 13.5% across its yoghurt portfolio since 2015 – equivalent to the removal of 1,759 tonnes of sugar from its product portfolio.
If Müller achieves its goal, it would be well on course to meet Public Health England’s voluntary sugar reduction target – a roadmap introduced to lower children’s sugar intake by 20% before August 2020.
The move comes after Müller developed a new yoghurt culture which requires less sweetening to make it palatable.
The new culture was added to Müller’s core Light range in May and is set to be rolled out in its Corner range from 24 June.
