Hi Jason, If items were produced within 100 miles contribute to the sustainable cost. Natalie

Thanks Natalie, but will it be ok if the source/raw material outside the 100 miles radius?

Jason, there is some grey area around this question. See the discussions above.

I just got a review comment about this on an EBOM project, saying that not only does the food need to be extracted and processed within the 100-mile radius, but also the packaging as well. Not sure if this is just my review team, or if this is now official, but we got this review comment. Hope this helps, although I think it might prove as more work.
