A written review of your supplement label against the rules that apply in Scotland, for businesses in Johnshaven and across Aberdeenshire.
FAQs for Johnshaven
Do you only work with Johnshaven businesses?
No. We take orders online from anywhere in the UK, so it makes no difference where you’re based. Johnshaven orders go by tracked delivery to DD10.
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
We can check for both. EU food law applies in Northern Ireland, so claims must come from the EU register and the address must be in NI or the EU. Tell us where you sell and we’ll check the label for each market.
Can I see a sample before ordering?
Yes, we can. Ask for a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in Johnshaven, so you can feel the materials and finishes before you order.
Can you check a label that’s 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.
Is this the same as Trading Standards advice?
No. Trading Standards for Aberdeenshire enforce labelling law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
What the check covers for Johnshaven 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. This is a practical check rather than 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.

Rules in Scotland
Label rules that apply in Johnshaven
Supplements sold from Johnshaven 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.
