Supplement label compliance check in Aberlady

What the check covers for Aberlady brands

Send your artwork or draft copy. We review it against the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, the food information rules and the GB nutrition and health claims register, and send back a written report with every point marked as fine, advised or must fix. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step. We check labels designed and printed anywhere, not just our own.

Rules in Scotland

Supplement labelling rules for Aberlady

Any food supplement sold from Aberlady must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, regulated nationally by Food Standards Scotland. At a local level, food labelling is enforced by the local authority’s trading standards or environmental health officers for East Lothian.

Scotland has its own food regulator, but the supplement labelling rules match England and Wales, so one label works across Great Britain.
