FoodEx2 annual maintenance 2015

FoodEx2 is a comprehensive food classification and description system released by EFSA in 2011 (revision 1) and replaced in April 2015 by FoodEx2 revision 2, as a consequence of a testing phase. Afterwards, the annual maintenance of the system was carried out in order to evaluate further comments and proposals provided to EFSA by users and stakeholders during the year 2015. This technical report describes the outcome of the maintenance process, including addition of new terms, disposal of existing terms and amendments to existing terms.
