What the check covers for Avening brands
Send your artwork or draft copy. We review it against the Food Supplements (England) 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. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, including ones from other printers.

Questions from Avening brands
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Avening?
Avening is in England, so the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003 cover your label, as well as the general food information rules. Health claims have to come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
Who enforces food labelling in Gloucestershire?
Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Gloucestershire, with national oversight from the Food Standards Agency. For advice councils must respect, consider a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
What do I get back?
A written report, with every point marked as fine, advised or must fix, with suggested wording where needed.
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
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.
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for Gloucestershire enforce the law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
