Abstract

<p>Objective: To determine the status of the Smart Meal provision and the issues faced by companies to promote the application and support continued certification of restaurants and ready-made meal companies under the "Healthy Meal and Food Environment" certification system.</p><p>Methods: We targeted 79 companies—55 restaurants and 24 ready-made meal companies—that were certified in FY2018 and renewed in 2020. From January to February 2020, we investigated the status of Smart Meal provision and issues in addition to the intention to renew using the Web form. In addition, we used the information on the application department, certification time, store location, and number of stars. The results of the quantitative data are shown by frequency distribution, free-form answers are coded, and similar contents are summarized and categorized.</p><p>Results: In total, 79 companies were analyzed (analysis target rate: 100.0%). 70.9% (n = 56) of companies answered that they would renew. A total of 63.3% (n = 31) of the 49 companies that responded to the items answered that there was a response from the customer, such as [Positive evaluation of the menu]. In addition, 71.4% (n = 35) of companies answered that there was no change in sales before and after certification, but 81.6% (n = 40) of companies answered that there was a merit of certification. A total of 40.8% (n = 20) of companies responded [Issues related to menus].</p><p>Conclusions: To promote applications for the certification system for restaurants/ready-made meal companies and support their continued certification, it is necessary to solve issues related to menu, including development, cost reduction, and related to dissemination and enlightenment such as raising awareness of Smart Meal.</p>
