This study aimed to comprehensively evaluate current policies and actions that public sectors in Iran are taking to create healthy food environments for the management of obesity, Non-Communicable Diseases, and their related inequalities compared to the best international practices to fill current policy gaps. Healthy Food Environment Policy Index was the principal tool and interactions with key stakeholders was the main approach applied. Data collection was conducted in 6 steps: Validation of the Food-EPI tool, Compilation of evidence report, Selection of expert panels, Validation of the evidence report, Rating process, and Identification of proposed actions. Based on the results, no indicator was rated as ”high” implementation and nearly two-thirds of the indicators were rated as low or very low. A total of 948 policy editing views were extracted from the content of the expert panel feedback that two third of them were classified into only 5 domains including ”Monitoring and intelligent”, ”Food provision”, ”Food labeling”, “Food promotion” and “Food prices”. These policy-editing views were summarized in 48 proposed actions that provide constructive recommendations for the future actions of the public sector. Strengthened Monitoring policies as a supportive infrastructure was the most obvious policy editing considered. This study highlights the extensive Iranian government landscape to create a healthy food environment. It emphasizes the need to improve current policies and infrastructures to shift to a health-promoting food environment.
