Platform for producers
Many producers already publish their data as opendata into Open Food Facts database.
Platform for Producers
Even if the producer has few products, producers should use the free Open Food Facts Platform for Producers: https://world.pro.openfoodfacts.org/
Features
- mass import and/or update products and their pictures in Open Food Facts (via Excel files, CSV, EQUADIS)
- compute food indicators such as Nutri-Score, NOVA, Eco-Score
- control data before import: data errors are reported; each product page can be simulated
- identifies products enhancements: for example, a better Nutri-Score due to a small sugar or salt variation
- protect qualified data from modifications (products which passed data quality controls)

How to help
As an Open Food Facts contributor, you can help to spread the world and contact producers to ask them to publish their products. One of the objectives is to create a "platform within the platform" so that efforts to convince producers can be distributed.
