European Score analysis

The Vegetarian Pesto, Vegetable And Mozzarella Melts, a product from Tesco, has a European score of 60. This score is primarily driven by the company's headquarters being located within Europe, which contributes 35 to the score, and the distribution network, which adds 15. The ingredients used in the product contribute 10 to the score. However, the product does not score in manufacturing, certifications, or proximity, which are also considered in the European score calculation.

The breakdown of the score suggests that while the company's European presence and distribution are strengths, the product's manufacturing and certifications are areas that do not contribute to its European score. A shopper should consider that the product is widely available due to its distribution network, but may not offer the same level of European manufacturing or certification as other products.

With a percentile in category of 59 out of 17 products in the vegetarian meals category, this product is slightly below the median. Shoppers looking for higher-scoring alternatives may consider options like Soupe des indes, which scores 95, or Cieciorka w sosie pomidorowym and Vegetal bocados estilo tex mex, both of which score 90, or Nut Roast, which scores 85, indicating a stronger European connection in terms of manufacturing, ingredients, or certifications.
