FSSAI labelling for Indian food merchants — can Magento auto-render it?

Yes — FSSAI label rendering on Magento PDP + invoice is a solved pattern.

What FSSAI requires (post-2021 amendments): brand name, product name, net quantity, FSSAI licence number (14 digits, prefixed by the FSSAI logo), nutrition information per 100g/100ml, ingredients list in descending weight order, allergen declaration, manufacturer + packer + importer details, vegetarian / non-vegetarian symbol (green / brown dot), best-before / use-by, batch + lot number, manufacturing date, country of origin. For specific categories (organic, fortified, GM) additional declarations apply.

Magento implementation: add product attributes for each FSSAI field (we ship a 22-attribute starter set). On the PDP, render a structured FSSAI-compliant block via a template. On the invoice / dispatch label, render via a custom invoice template (Magento `Mage_Sales` PDF override). For multi-store deployments selling outside India, the same attributes hide on non-IN store views — the FSSAI block only renders on the `en_IN` store view.

For brands selling internationally, we map the same attribute set to FDA Nutrition Facts (US store view) + EU 1169 Nutrition Declaration (EU views) + FSANZ (AU) using region-specific templates — one master attribute set, four output formats. Post-launch, ops only updates one place.
