What the check covers for Alexandria 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. It’s a practical review, not legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step. We check labels designed and printed anywhere, including ones from other printers.

Rules in Scotland
Label rules that apply in Alexandria
Products you sell from Alexandria must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, regulated nationally by Food Standards Scotland. Locally, food labelling is enforced by the local authority’s trading standards or environmental health officers.
Scotland has its own food regulator, but the supplement labelling rules match England and Wales, so one label works across Great Britain.
A good first step is our label requirements checklist, and then check your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

FAQs for Alexandria
Do I need to be based in Alexandria to order?
No. We take orders online from anywhere in the UK, so it makes no difference where you’re based. Alexandria orders go by tracked courier to G83.
Who enforces food labelling in West Dunbartonshire?
Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for West Dunbartonshire, overseen nationally by Food Standards Scotland. If you want assured advice, you can set up a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
What do I get back?
A written, point-by-point report, with each item marked as fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
We can check for both. EU food law applies in Northern Ireland, so health claims must be on the EU register and the address must work for that market. Let us know where your products go and we’ll check the label for each market.
Can you check a label that’s already printed?
We’ll still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you which are urgent and which can wait for your next print run.
