Rules in England
Supplement labelling rules for Gittisham
Any food supplement sold from Gittisham must meet the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003, under the oversight of the Food Standards Agency. In Devon, food labelling is enforced by the local authority’s trading standards or environmental health officers for Devon.
The same label can be sold in Scotland and Wales, since the supplement rules are the same across Great Britain.
A good first step is our label requirements checklist, and then check your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

What the check covers for Gittisham brands
Send your artwork or draft copy. We review it against the Food Supplements (England) 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.

Questions from Gittisham brands
What if my labels are 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.
Do you check labels for Northern Ireland as well as Great Britain?
We can check for both. Northern Ireland follows EU food law, 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.
Do you send samples?
Yes. Request a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in Gittisham, so you can feel the materials and finishes.
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for Devon enforce labelling law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
How long does a check take?
We confirm the turnaround when you send your label.
