At FPP we consider the sharing of content and knowledge to be one of our principal responsibilities. We’ve created FPP Checkout to allow us to deliver against this.

The purpose of this platform is to simplify the consumption of content. With so many sources in both the offline and online world, it’s easy to fall behind on essential reading. Checkout finds relevant, up-to-date information and delivers it to you in one easily-accessible environment. What’s more, we also use Checkout to provide FPP category analysis and opinion whenever and wherever relevant.

Checkout is a platform designed with you in mind. And that doesn’t just apply to the content we deliver, but also the way in which we deliver it. We provide information that isn’t just relevant to the industry as a whole, but relevant to you as an individual.

If you click on ‘My Account’, you’ll be able to select the categorical content that is of interest to you. This will allow us to prioritise the content that we know you like.

We use a number of sources for the articles featured on Checkout. Whilst we won’t necessarily cover all of the publications you access, below is a list of the most common to try and give you as much as possible in one place:

Aldi trials removal of plastic packaging from cabbages and cauliflowers

ldi has begun selling cauliflowers and cabbages without plastic packaging in a trial in Scotland which could spread across the discounter’s UK estate.

Four varieties of cabbage – savoy, red, white and pointed – along with cauliflowers are available to buy now plastic-free, in a move anticipated to save half a tonne of wrapping over six weeks.

Spread across the UK, the saving would rise to 110 tonnes annually.

It comes after rival Iceland introduced a loose fresh produce aisle with 35 packaging-free fruit and veg lines at a Food Warehouse branch in north Liverpool last month.

Aldi has pledged to make all own-label packaging 100% recyclable, reusable or compostable by 2022. The supermarket claims to have replaced more than 2,500 tonnes of plastic packaging with recyclable alternatives since May last year.
