Supplement label checks for Dunoon, Argyll and Bute
A written review of your supplement label against the rules that apply in Scotland, for brands in Dunoon and across Argyll and Bute.
What the check covers for Dunoon 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. We check labels designed and printed anywhere, not just our own. It’s a practical review, not legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

Dunoon questions
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
We can check for both. EU food law applies in Northern Ireland, so health claims must be on the EU register and the address must be in NI or the EU. Let us know where your products go and we’ll cover both.
Who checks supplement labels in Argyll and Bute?
Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Argyll and Bute, with national oversight from Food Standards Scotland. For advice councils must respect, you can set up a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
How long does a check take?
We confirm the turnaround when you send your label.
Can I see a sample before ordering?
Yes, we can. Request a sample pack and we’ll post it to your Dunoon address, so you can feel the materials and finishes before you order.
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for Argyll and Bute enforce the law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
