Questions from Ashton-in-Makerfield brands
Is this the same as Trading Standards advice?
No. Trading Standards for Wigan enforce labelling law; we give a practical second opinion before you print.
How long does a check take?
We’ll tell you the turnaround when you send your artwork.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Ashton-in-Makerfield?
Ashton-in-Makerfield is in England, so the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003 apply, alongside the general food information rules. Health claims must come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
Do you check labels for Northern Ireland as well as Great Britain?
We check against both sets of rules. EU food law applies in Northern Ireland, so claims must come from the EU register and the address must work for that market. Tell us where you sell and we’ll check the label for each market.
What if my labels are already printed?
We’ll still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you what must change now and what can wait for the next run.
