FAQs for Heriot

Can I see a sample before ordering?

Yes, we can. Ask for a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in Heriot, showing our materials and finishes.

What does the report look like?

A written report, with each item marked fine, advised or must fix, with suggested wording where needed.

How quickly do you review a label?

We’ll tell you the turnaround when you send your artwork.

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

We can check for both. Northern Ireland follows EU food law, so claims must come from the EU register and the address must be in NI or the EU. Let us know where your products go and we’ll cover both.

Do you only work with Heriot businesses?

No. We take orders online from anywhere in the UK, so it makes no difference where you’re based. Heriot deliveries go by tracked courier to EH38.

What the check covers for Heriot 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. We check labels designed and printed anywhere, including ones from other printers. It’s a practical review, not legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

Rules in Scotland

Labelling law for supplements from Heriot

Supplements sold from Heriot must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, under the oversight of Food Standards Scotland. At a local level, food labelling is enforced by the council’s trading standards or environmental health team.

Scotland has its own food regulator, but the supplement labelling rules match England and Wales, so one label works across Great Britain.
