Svensk Dagligvaruhandel is presenting a number of political proposals that, according to the organization, should contribute to better public health. The group wants legislation to be introduced on an age limit for energy drinks, though the specific age proposed has not been disclosed. Currently, there is an industry agreement on a 15-year age limit used by actors such as Axfood, Coop, Ica, and Lidl.
However, the lack of legislation creates different conditions for retailers, leading to inconsistencies in enforcement. The exact ways in which these varying conditions manifest, as well as the other political proposals from Svensk Dagligvaruhandel, remain unclear. Additionally, the timeline or likelihood of this legislation being introduced, along with any evidence cited by the organization to support the need for an age limit, has not been specified.
