Open Food Facts

Open Food Facts provides a collaborative, free and open database of food products from around the world, enabling consumers to scan barcodes, view ingredients, nutrition facts, allergens, and nutrition/environment scores to inform healthier and more transparent choices.

Global consumers seeking information about what they eat; educators and students; researchers; developers and data scientists who reuse open data; contributors and producers who participate in the database.

Open Food Facts is an open-data, volunteer-driven, non-profit database that operates independently of the food industry and supports broad data reuse across multiple domains (food, cosmetics, pet food, and other products).

Instant value can be gained by using the app to scan foods and view labels; data and insights are available immediately, with ongoing contributions expanding coverage over time.
