In the UK they do, there is a 3 part code on the label, normally part of the use-by label. This identifies the Licence issuing region ( town ) and the site within that region ( factory ).
you local Environmental Health department in the council can help you with a list.
As for abroad, some do but only if they think its going to be a sales benefit. So they are not going to tell you your plum tomatoes come from North Korea ( eg ) at the moment.

Consumers are becoming increasingly concerned about the origin of their food. So, retailers should specify the country of origin of their product on the label

i think of that labeling each and every thing with as plenty information is extremely significant. It facilitates people make the superb judgements that they could make for themselves while paying for. I continually pay attention some thing on the information approximately nutrients, bearing directly to good and undesirable issues. The greater labeling the greater you may clear out what you purchase.

actually they should if not it is breaking the food description law!! But you have to be careful on this as if you get a Scottish cow and bring it and slaughter it in England!! what is it? Yes the food retailers/manufactures manipulate the law to their own needs.

I would never eat shell fish in India. Imagine my surprise when I came across a list of imports into Switzerland and discovered that most prawns were imported from - India!

Not just food all products. It is about time we started making things in the UK . I hate it when everything comes from China and funds the oppressive regime.
