Abstract

Food retailers in community settings are gatekeepers to the crucial food systems changes needed to improve population nutrition. Evidence-based models of change are needed to enable shifts in these complex retail environments. Systems thinking offers unique insights by capturing potential unintended consequences and multiple pathways to success. This study sought to create a systems map for retailers, public health practitioners and other stakeholders seeking to implement healthy food retail policies. It aimed to identify (i) points of intervention through which community-based organisations can shift to healthier food provision, and (ii) key feedback loops that could drive potential unintended consequences of such policies in a complex system.
