Check your supplement label: Dovecote brands
A written review of your supplement label against the rules that apply in Scotland, for companies in Dovecote and across East Lothian.
What the check covers for Dovecote 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, including ones from other printers. It’s a practical review, not legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

Rules in Scotland
Supplement labelling rules for Dovecote
Supplements sold from Dovecote must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, regulated nationally by Food Standards Scotland. In East Lothian, food labelling is enforced by council trading standards or environmental health staff for East Lothian.
Scotland has its own food regulator, but the supplement labelling rules match England and Wales, so one label works across Great Britain.
A good first step is our label requirements checklist, then check your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

Dovecote questions
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for East Lothian enforce the law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
What do I get back?
A written report, with every point marked as fine, advised or must fix, with suggested wording where needed.
Can you check a label that’s 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.
Do you check labels for Northern Ireland as well as Great Britain?
We can check for both. Northern Ireland follows EU food law, so health claims must be on the EU register and the address must work for that market. Let us know where your products go and we’ll check the label for each market.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Dovecote?
Dovecote is in Scotland, so the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003 cover your label, alongside the general food information rules. Health claims have to come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
