Rules in Scotland
Label rules that apply in Hogaland
Supplements sold from Hogaland must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, overseen by Food Standards Scotland. Locally, food labelling is enforced by the local authority’s trading standards or environmental health officers.
Scotland has its own food regulator, but the supplement labelling rules match England and Wales, so one label works across Great Britain.
A good first step is our label requirements checklist, then review your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

What the check covers for Hogaland brands
We read your label line by line: the supplement statements, the nutrient table and %NRV maths, ingredients and allergens, claims, text size and traceability. You get a written report you can act on or pass to your designer. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, not just our own. It’s a practical review, not legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

Hogaland questions
What do I get back?
A written, point-by-point report, with every point marked as fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Hogaland?
Hogaland is in Scotland, so the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003 apply, as well as the general food information rules. Health claims must come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
What if my labels are already printed?
We’ll still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you which are urgent and which can wait for your next print run.
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for the Shetland Islands enforce labelling law; we give a practical second opinion before you print.
Do you send samples?
Yes. Request a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in Hogaland, so you can feel the materials and finishes before you order.
