Questions from Harpford brands

Who checks supplement labels in Devon?

Supplement labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Devon, overseen nationally by the Food Standards Agency. For advice councils must respect, you can set up a Primary Authority partnership with a council.

Do you check labels for Northern Ireland as well as Great Britain?

We check against both sets of rules. 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. Tell us where you sell and we’ll cover both.

Do you only work with Harpford businesses?

No. We take orders online from anywhere in the UK, so it makes no difference where you’re based. Harpford orders go by tracked delivery to EX10.

Do you send samples?

Yes. Request a sample pack and we’ll post it to your Harpford address, showing our materials and finishes.

What do I get back?

A written report, with every point marked fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.
