If an organisationenters in to the global market there may be a large scope of improvement. Globalization canhelp in improving the quality of products as well as services within the retail sector. The processof globalisation can help in providing the huge amount of information for the organisation whichcan be used by a company in improving the quality of its products in an international market.With the increase in quality it can attract the people across the world and can act as promotion ofhealth in the countries in which a company operates. Due to the promotion through globalisation,it can create a health consciousness among the customers which can help them in improving the2
healthy living at a global level. The products which are healthy in nature can be the best way ofimproving the human health. Various countries across the word are involved in selling of organicand healthy products which can be effective for promoting a good health and the products whichdoes not contain harmful substance. As per Qaim, (2017) many countries wants to promote healthy life style in citizensbecause most of the people prefer the fast food to save time in hectic life schedule. This iscausing a lot of problems like obesity in different age groups. So it is important to promotehealthy life style. The companies which are promoting healthy life style in people are sellingdifferent healthy products which are directly come from farms and hundred percent organic. Ifcitizen of country are using organic product over other product will improve their routine lifestyle. Globalization of a company which is promoting organic and fresh products improves thehealth of customers. If the company is selling their product on international level it will providehealthy product to larger number of people and this will improve life style of too many people.Globalization also help the organization in different manner like sustainable packaging of foodproduct which is harm less and can help to preserve food product for longer time.

The chemical like urea and otherchemical as fertilizer increase the productivity but it comes with less nutrition value. Thischemical severely damages the human body after consumption. When this chemical fertilizerreach to intestine they damage the inner surface and reduce its function. This slowly reduces thehealth of humans. To prevent this the farmers need to use chemical free fertilizer in the farmingto grow chemical free food products. By this type of organic food product the better nutritionreach to body which help the people to live healthy life. The people who are aware of bad effectof chemical containing food product usually don't use this kind of product. Sustainability in thefood product is most important for healthy life. The organic food products are able to sustain thehealth of users. Ethically is important to provide better food product to people which will keep3
them healthy and safe from different disease. So sustainability is required in food products forhealthy life style.According to ink and Fischer, (2018) if the products people are using are not sustainablefor health can cause different type of deficiency in people. Sustainability of food product can bejudged by the nutritious value of food item and packaging of food product. The quality andnutritious value of product is most important for better health. If the product is meeting therequirement of nutrition then it will be good for health. Different companies uses the chemicalpreserver to keep the product preserve for longer time which is not good for health and causedifferent medical issues in consumer. The packaging of product also important to maintainnutrition value and quality of product for longer time. In the globalization use of bettersustainable methods can improve the health of consumer which is basic need. Organization canuse different sustainable ways of packaging which can keep the food product free formcontaminating. Contaminated food product can cause many sever issues which are not good forhealth. Use of chemicals as preserver can reduce the efficiency of digestive system of consumer.So it is very important to keep the food product sustainable to maintain better human health.Environmental and Social Impact of GlobalizationAccording to Whitbread, (2015) the companies which are producing develops the productas per the market trends and needs of consumer.
