1 STANDING COMMITTEE ON FINANCE & PORTFOLIO COMMITTEE ON HEALTH NATIONAL ASSEMBLY PARLIAMENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF SOUTH AFRICA PUBLIC HEARINGS: HEALTH PROMOTION LEVY ON SUGARY BEVERAGES 6 JUNE 2017
2 PIONEER FOODS Nutrition-based Food and Beverage leader in Southern Africa 2 nd largest listed FMCG company in South Africa Operating in South Africa, multiple other African countries and selling products globally Our unsweetened 100% fruit and vegetable juice brands 50% market share, made with highest quality local and exotic fruits A pioneer in the unsweetened 100% fruit and vegetable juice industry for over 40 years 2
3 Unsweetened 100% fruit juice Low Glycaemic Index (GI) on some variants Contains valuable Nutrients, Essential Vitamins and minerals found in fruit No added sugars, preservatives or colourants Fruit cells are available in 8 flavours (1L) Pasteurised and sterile packaging to preserve product integrity Exported to more than 84 countries (Africa, Middle East and Central Asia, Far East, Europe, North America and the Caribbean and South America) 3
4 No added sugar or colourants Flavours from citrus to smooth berry blends
5 OUR FOOD POLICY We recognise the value of a balanced and nutritious diet in preventing NCD s and obesity and support Government s objectives therein High quality, safe and nutritious food products Strictly adhering to applicable and prevailing health and safety regulations Well-recognised household brands that form an integral part of many South African s diets - fulfilling the responsibility it brings. Diligently adherence to the protection of consumer rights as governed by the Consumer Protection Act Comprehensive, transparent and accurate product labelling empowering consumers to make informed decisions 5
6 OUR MISSION: We believe in nourishing lives with trusted, well-loved brands, empowering families to get more out of life We acknowledge and recognise the problem of excess sugar intake in the diet of South Africans and proactively contribute to population-based health promotion. As a leading nutrition based food and beverage business, our commitment to health promotion transcends beyond sugary beverages We are focused on pre-emptive and proactive measures to achieve health promotion across our product range, not merely unsweetened 100% fruit and vegetable juice and beverages Thus the importance of recognising the value of a balanced and nutritious diet and those key elements that may contribute to the wellbeing of our customers Our customers demand healthier products and alternatives to SSBs Health remains amongst their top 3 concerns They are increasingly concerned about the health benefits of what they consume Demand for transparency and origin typifies the scrutiny of labels and ingredients 6
7 Exclusion of unsweetened 100% fruit and vegetable juice from the Health Promotion Levy on Sugary Beverages CONTRIBUTING TO HEALTH PROMOTION EFFORTS
8 EXCLUSION OF UNSWEETENED 100% FRUIT & VEG. JUICE A timely opportunity in contributing to addressing the problem of excess sugar intake in South African s diets and its impact on the prevalence of Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) and obesity. The health promotion benefits of unsweetened 100% fruit and vegetable juices recognises: The supportive role it plays in achieving health promotion, in conjunction with a strong nutritional foundation built upon consumption of whole fruit and vegetables. Complementing whole fruit intake into one s diet: While unsweetened 100% fruit and vegetable juice is by no means a replacement for fresh whole fruit and vegetables; it plays a practical role in complimenting whole fruit intake into one s diet. A TIMELY OPPORTUNITY ADDRESSING EXCESS SUGAR INTAKE
9 NUTRITIONAL COMPOSITION OF 100% JUICE ~10% = natural (intrinsic) sugar The same sugars as in the whole fruit, in the same ratio 100% fruit juice is simply fruit that has been juiced ~ 90% = water, vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients Straight from the whole fruit from which it is squeezed Many proven health benefits: 1 Cardiovascular health Bone health Brain health, cognition and aging Cancer and inflammation Bodyweight and insulin resistance Fibre is less than whole fruit, so portion control important Each gram of sugar in orange juice is balanced with 20mg of micro-nutrients including Vitamin C, potassium and folate 1 UK Department of Health. Nutrient analysis of fruit and vegetables. 9 Please refer to Annex for detailed scientific references
10 MARKET SIZE & HEALTH PROMOTION OPPORTUNITY Unsweetened 100% Fruit & Vegetable Juices Litres 3,8% 3,8% of SA beverage market Contribution to health promotion and complimenting whole fruit and vegetable in take, in a context of high prevalence NCDs and obesity outweighs market size. 96,2% Juice Other Beverages Source: ACNielsen MAT March 2015; IRI MAT November
11 EXCLUSION OF UNSWEETENED 100% FRUIT & VEG. JUICE An opportunity to continue with efforts to work with Government to contribute to population based health promotion interventions. Our commitment to voluntary and statutory interventions to reformulate products across our range (not just beverages) includes: Deepening research and innovation in product reformulation Voluntary initiatives supporting public policy objectives Other non-fiscal, government and industry-led interventions to achieve population health outcomes Marketing and advertising Packaging, labelling and nutritional guidelines and consumer disclosures Consumer education and awareness Exploratory interventions: Reduced package sizes Reducing sugar content Lower kilojoule options Expanding vegetable juice range Enhancing consumer communication on key nutritional facts e.g. GI and serving sizes COMMITMENT TO PRODUCT REFORMULATION SAVING A GENERATION. PROTECTING A NATION
12 EXCLUSION OF UNSWEETENED 100% FRUIT & VEG. JUICE We remain fully committed to continue working with Government in any future review to consider the inclusion of unsweetened 100% fruit and vegetable juice in the Health Promotion Levy on Sugary Beverages, based on Evidence based and comprehensive: A) Independent scientific research B) Socio-Economic Impact Assessment C) International benchmarking studies D) National Dietary Intake Study Further consultation with all stakeholders, at NEDLAC and future Parliamentary processes - representative across the industry value chain - Government (National Treasury, DoH, DTI, EDD and DAFF) - Labour (agricultural unions) and Civil Society WORKING WITH GOVERNMENT EXPLORING POPULATION BASED HEALTH PROMOTION INTERVENTIONS
13 CONTRIBUTING TOWARD HEALTH PROMOTION INTERVENTIONS OVER THE LAST 3 YEARS ( ) Average sugar reduction of 30% across various dilutable beverages (nectars / squashes) Fruitree, Wild Island, Carribean, Ceres Nectar, Daly s Launched 4 reduced sugar ice-tea variants with 30% less sugar vs the standard range: Lipton Launch reduced pack size (cans) from 275 ml to 250 ml: Lipton Ceres Launch Diluted Juice (40 % less sugar vs. 100% juice) Ceres 13

17 LEVY ADMINISTRATION While ring-fencing and targeted earmarking is not Government policy for levies and taxes, it is imperative to ensure that the targeted objectives of the Health Promotion Levy in conjunction with other non-fiscal complimentary interventions is achieving the desired objectives. This requires A flow through of funding allocation to dedicated and viable priority interventions and programmes aligned with DoH policy, as approved through the annual budgeting cycle of Government and Parliament. Robust Parliamentary oversight, monitoring and evaluation of the health outcomes, fiscal and economic impact of funded initiatives vs targets sets. Good governance and transparency. This will contribute to assessing the efficacy and impact of targeted interventions and ensure good governance and transparency in the public finance management. 17
18 CONCLUSION & RECOMMENDATIONS 1. Exclusion of unsweetened of 100% fruit and vegetable juice at this point in time, should be supported in contributing to health promotion in conjunction with other voluntary initiatives being undertaken. 2. Pioneer Foods is implementing voluntary health promotion initiatives: Product reformulation; Package resizing; Improved labelling and ingredient disclosers, Responsible marketing and advertising. 3. Future reviews must be informed by scientifically evidence-based and comprehensive nutritional studies; International Benchmarking, Socio-Economic Impact Assessment and Consultation. 4. Administration of the levy: Ensuring funding to dedicated and viable priority interventions and programmes aligned with DoH policy approved through annual Budget cycle and Parliament. Robust Parliamentary oversight, monitoring and evaluation of health outcomes, fiscal and economic impact vs. targets set. 18
