What the check covers for Hillside brands

The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, including ones from other printers. 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 Hillside brands
Who enforces food labelling in Aberdeenshire?
Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Aberdeenshire, with national oversight from Food Standards Scotland. For advice councils must respect, you can set up a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
What does the report look like?
A written, point-by-point report, with every point marked fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.
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.
Do you only work with Hillside businesses?
No. We take orders online from anywhere in the UK, so your location doesn’t matter. Hillside deliveries go out by tracked delivery to DD10.
Do you check labels for Northern Ireland as well as Great Britain?
We can check for both. EU food law applies in Northern Ireland, so claims must come from the EU register and the address must work for that market. Let us know where your products go and we’ll check the label for each market.
