Supplement label compliance check in Bugle
A written review of your supplement label against the rules that apply in England, for brands in Bugle and across Cornwall.
What the check covers for Bugle brands
We read your label line by line: the supplement statements, the nutrient table and %NRV maths, ingredients and allergens, claims, text size and traceability. You get a written report you can act on or pass to your designer. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, not just our own.

Rules in England
Label rules that apply in Bugle
Products you sell from Bugle must meet the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003, under the oversight of the Food Standards Agency. In Cornwall, food labelling is enforced by the council’s trading standards or environmental health team.
The same label can be sold in Scotland and Wales, since the supplement rules are the same across Great Britain.
A good first step is our label requirements checklist, then check your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

Questions from Bugle brands
Who checks supplement labels in Cornwall?
Supplement labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Cornwall, overseen nationally by the Food Standards Agency. If you want assured advice, you can set up a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
Is this the same as Trading Standards advice?
No. Trading Standards for Cornwall enforce labelling law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
Can you check a label that’s already printed?
We can still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you which are urgent and which can wait for your next print run.
Do you only work with Bugle businesses?
No. We work online and deliver across the UK, so your location doesn’t matter. Bugle orders go out by tracked courier to PL26.
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
We check against both sets of rules. Northern Ireland follows EU food law, so claims must come from the EU register and the address must be in NI or the EU. Tell us where you sell and we’ll cover both.
