Labelling law for supplements from Cotes

You can sell the same label in Scotland and Wales, as Great Britain shares one set of supplement rules.

What the check covers for Cotes 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. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step. We check labels designed and printed anywhere, including ones from other printers.

Cotes is in England, so the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003 cover your label, together with the general food information rules. Health claims must come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.

What if my labels are already printed?

We’ll still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you which are urgent and which can wait for your next print run.

Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?

No. Trading Standards for Leicestershire enforce the law; we give a practical second opinion before you print.

Do I need to be based in Cotes to order?

No. We take orders online from anywhere in the UK, so it makes no difference where you’re based. Cotes deliveries go out by tracked courier to LE12.
