Rules in England
Labelling law for supplements from Crofthandy
Any food supplement sold from Crofthandy must meet the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003, under the oversight of the Food Standards Agency. In Cornwall, food labelling is enforced by the local authority’s trading standards or environmental health officers.
You can sell the same label in Scotland and Wales, because the supplement rules match across Great Britain.
Begin with our label requirements checklist, and then check your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

What the check covers for Crofthandy 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. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, including ones from other printers. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

Crofthandy questions
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for Cornwall enforce the law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
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. Let us know where your products go and we’ll cover both.
How long does a check take?
We’ll tell you the turnaround when you send your artwork, and urgent checks can often be done quickly.
What do I get back?
A written report, with every point marked as fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.
