Rules in England
Label rules that apply in Guide Post
Products you sell from Guide Post must meet the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003, under the oversight of the Food Standards Agency. At a local level, food labelling is enforced by council trading standards or environmental health staff.
One label works across England, Scotland and Wales, as Great Britain shares one set of supplement rules.
Begin with our label requirements checklist, then review your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

What the check covers for Guide Post 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. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, including ones from other printers.

Questions from Guide Post brands
Can I see a sample before ordering?
Yes, we can. Ask for a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in Guide Post, showing our materials and finishes before you order.
What if my labels are 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.
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for Northumberland enforce the law; we give a practical second opinion before you print.
Do I need to be based in Guide Post to order?
No. We work online and deliver across the UK, so it makes no difference where you’re based. Guide Post deliveries go out by tracked delivery to NE62.
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. Tell us where you sell and we’ll check the label for each market.
