Check your supplement label: Jamestown brands
Send us your label and we’ll tell you, in writing, what must change before it goes on sale from Jamestown.
What the check covers for Jamestown 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. 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.

Jamestown questions
Do you only work with Jamestown businesses?
No. We work online and deliver across the UK, so your location doesn’t matter. Jamestown deliveries go out by tracked delivery to G83.
Can I see a sample before ordering?
Yes, we can. Request a sample pack and we’ll post it to your Jamestown address, showing our materials and finishes before you order.
What if my labels are already printed?
We can still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you which are urgent and which can wait for your next print run.
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 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 cover both.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Jamestown?
Jamestown is in Scotland, so the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003 cover your label, as well as the general food information rules. Health claims must come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
Rules in Scotland
Labelling law for supplements from Jamestown
Products you sell from Jamestown must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, regulated nationally by Food Standards Scotland. In West Dunbartonshire, food labelling is enforced by the local authority’s trading standards or environmental health officers for West Dunbartonshire.
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, and then check your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.
