FAQs for Broughtown
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Broughtown?
Broughtown is in Scotland, so the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003 apply, alongside the general food information rules. Health claims have to come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
Who checks supplement labels in the Orkney Islands?
Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for the Orkney Islands, with national oversight from Food Standards Scotland. If you want assured advice, you can set up a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for the Orkney Islands enforce labelling law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
Do I need to be based in Broughtown to order?
No. We work online and deliver across the UK, so it makes no difference where you’re based. Broughtown deliveries go out by tracked delivery to KW17.
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
We check against both sets of rules. EU food law applies in Northern Ireland, so health claims must be on the EU register and the address must work for that market. Tell us where you sell and we’ll cover both.
