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

What the check covers for Drimpton 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. 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, including ones from other printers.

Questions from Drimpton brands
What do I get back?
A written report, with every point marked as fine, advised or must fix, with suggested wording where needed.
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
We check against both sets of rules. EU food law applies in Northern Ireland, so claims must come from the EU register and the address must be in NI or the EU. Tell us where you sell and we’ll check the label for each market.
Is this the same as Trading Standards advice?
No. Trading Standards for Dorset enforce the law; we give a practical second opinion before you print.
Do you send samples?
Yes. Request a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in Drimpton, showing our materials and finishes.
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.
