Supplement labelling rules for Fountainhall
Products you sell from Fountainhall must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, overseen 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 Scottish Borders.
Scotland has its own food regulator, but the supplement labelling rules match England and Wales, so one label works across Great Britain.
Begin with our label requirements checklist, then review your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

What the check covers for Fountainhall 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. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, not just our own.

FAQs for Fountainhall
What do I get back?
A written, point-by-point report, with each item marked as fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
We check against both sets of rules. 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 check the label for each market.
Is this the same as Trading Standards advice?
No. Trading Standards for the Scottish Borders enforce the law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
Who checks supplement labels in the Scottish Borders?
Supplement labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for the Scottish Borders, with national oversight from Food Standards Scotland. If you want assured advice, consider a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
How quickly do you review a label?
We confirm the turnaround when you send your label.
