Label rules that apply in Carronbridge
Supplements sold from Carronbridge must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, overseen by Food Standards Scotland. In Dumfries and Galloway, food labelling is enforced by the local authority’s trading standards or environmental health officers for Dumfries and Galloway.
Scotland has its own food regulator, but the supplement labelling rules match England and Wales, so one label works across Great Britain.

What the check covers for Carronbridge 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. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, not just our own. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

Questions from Carronbridge brands
What if my labels are already printed?
We can still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you what must change now and what can wait for the next run.
Do you check labels for Northern Ireland as well as Great Britain?
We can check for both. Northern Ireland follows EU food law, so claims must come from the EU register and the address must work for that market. Tell us where you sell and we’ll cover both.
Do you only work with Carronbridge businesses?
No. We take orders online from anywhere in the UK, so your location doesn’t matter. Carronbridge orders go by tracked courier to DG3.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Carronbridge?
Carronbridge is in Scotland, so the Food Supplements (Scotland) 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.
Is this the same as Trading Standards advice?
No. Trading Standards for Dumfries and Galloway enforce the law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
