Rules in Scotland
Label rules that apply in Forth
Supplements sold from Forth must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, overseen by Food Standards Scotland. At a local level, food labelling is enforced by the council’s trading standards or environmental health team for South Lanarkshire.
Scotland has its own food regulator, but the supplement labelling rules match England and Wales, so one label works across Great Britain.

What the check covers for Forth 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. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

Forth questions
Is this the same as Trading Standards advice?
No. Trading Standards for South Lanarkshire enforce the law; we give a practical second opinion before you print.
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 work for that market. Let us know where your products go and we’ll check the label for each market.
What does the report look like?
A written, point-by-point report, with every point marked fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Forth?
Forth is in Scotland, so the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003 apply, alongside the general food information rules. Health claims have to come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
Who checks supplement labels in South Lanarkshire?
Supplement labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for South Lanarkshire, overseen nationally by Food Standards Scotland. If you want assured advice, consider a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
