SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Codex was established in 1963 by two
United Nations organizations, the Food
and Agriculture Organization and the
World Health Organization. Through
adoption of food standards, codes of
practice, and other guidelines
developed by its committees, and by
promoting their adoption and
implementation by governments, Codex
seeks to protect the health of consumers
and ensure fair practices in the food
trade.
The CCPFV is responsible for
elaborating worldwide standards and
related texts for all types of processed
fruits and vegetables including, but not
limited to canned, dried, and frozen
products, as well as fruit and vegetable
juices and nectars.
The Committee is hosted by the
United States.
