What the check covers for Gordon 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. It’s a practical review, not legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step. We check labels designed and printed anywhere, including ones from other printers.

Rules in Scotland

Label rules that apply in Gordon

Products you sell from Gordon 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 Scottish Borders.

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, then review your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?

No. Trading Standards for the Scottish Borders enforce the law; we give a practical second opinion before you print.

What do I get back?

A written, point-by-point report, with each item marked fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.

Who enforces food labelling in the Scottish Borders?

Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for the Scottish Borders, overseen nationally by Food Standards Scotland. If you want assured advice, consider a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
