Check your supplement label: Ecclefechan brands
Send us your label and we’ll tell you, in writing, what must change before it goes on sale from Ecclefechan.
What the check covers for Ecclefechan 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. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

Ecclefechan questions
Do you only work with Ecclefechan businesses?
No. We take orders online from anywhere in the UK, so it makes no difference where you’re based. Ecclefechan orders go by tracked courier to DG11.
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
We check against both sets of rules. Northern Ireland follows EU food law, so claims must come from 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.
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.
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.
Who checks supplement labels in Dumfries and Galloway?
Supplement labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Dumfries and Galloway, overseen nationally by Food Standards Scotland. For advice councils must respect, consider a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
