What the check covers for Holywood 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. It’s a practical review, not 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, not just our own.

FAQs for Holywood
Do you send samples?
Yes, we can. Ask for a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in Holywood, showing our materials and finishes.
How long does a check take?
We confirm the turnaround when you send your label.
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for Dumfries and Galloway enforce the law; we give a practical second opinion before you print.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Holywood?
Holywood is in Scotland, so the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003 cover your label, alongside the general food information rules. Health claims must come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
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. Let us know where your products go and we’ll cover both.
