ABSTRACT

This study analyses the potential, challenges, and opportunities of sustainability in North American baking industry. It departs from the assumption that the baking industry in Canada, United States and Mexico are facing challenges to adjust its production and distribution operations to the sustainable development goals. The methods employed are the analytical-descriptive approach to the various reports on the sustainability concerns leading to a more reflective outcomes about the reality. It is concluded that the assumptions about the relationship between food policies and sustainable development in North American baking industry led to conclude that is weak, if not lacking, to address all the interconnected and interrelated social, environmental, and economic issues and concerns. In fact, the research findings are directed towards explaining this lack of engagement between policy making and implementation in the baking industry across America to be able to deliver better nutrition, health, and lifestyle to consumers.
