What the check covers for Cuminestown brands
Send your artwork or draft copy. We review it against the Food Supplements (Scotland) 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. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step. We check labels designed and printed anywhere, not just our own.

Questions from Cuminestown brands
What does the report look like?
A written report, with each item marked fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Cuminestown?
Cuminestown is in Scotland, so the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003 apply, as well as the general food information rules. Health claims have to come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
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 check labels for Northern Ireland as well as Great Britain?
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.
Do I need to be based in Cuminestown to order?
No. We work online and deliver across the UK, so it makes no difference where you’re based. Cuminestown orders go by tracked delivery to AB53.
