Supplement label compliance check in Kelso
A written review of your supplement label against UK labelling rules that apply in Scotland, for businesses in Kelso and across Scottish Borders.
What the check covers for Kelso 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. We check labels designed and printed anywhere, not just our own. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

Supplement labelling rules for Kelso
Any food supplement sold from Kelso must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, overseen by Food Standards Scotland. At a local level, 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.
Begin with our label requirements checklist, then check your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

Kelso questions
Who checks supplement labels in the Scottish Borders?
Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for the Scottish Borders, with national oversight from Food Standards Scotland. For advice councils must respect, consider a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
How long does a check take?
We’ll tell you the turnaround when you send your artwork, and urgent checks can often be done quickly.
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for the Scottish Borders enforce labelling law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
What if my labels are already printed?
We can still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you what must change now and what can wait for the next run.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Kelso?
Kelso is in Scotland, so the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003 apply, together with the general food information rules. Health claims must come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
