What the check covers for Firth 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. We check labels designed and printed anywhere, not just our own. It’s a practical review, not legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

Rules in Scotland
Label rules that apply in Firth
Supplements sold from Firth must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, regulated nationally by Food Standards Scotland. At a local level, food labelling is enforced by the local authority’s trading standards or environmental health officers for the Shetland Islands.
Scotland has its own food regulator, but the supplement labelling rules match England and Wales, so one label works across Great Britain.
Start with our label requirements checklist, and then check your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

Common questions in Firth
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Firth?
Firth 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.
Who checks supplement labels in the Shetland Islands?
Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for the Shetland Islands, overseen nationally by Food Standards Scotland. For advice councils must respect, consider a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
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. Tell us where you sell and we’ll check the label for each market.
What do I get back?
A written report, with every point marked as fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.
Can you check a label that’s already printed?
We’ll still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you what must change now and what can wait for the next run.
