Common questions in Messingham
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
We check against both sets of rules. 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.
Is this the same as Trading Standards advice?
No. Trading Standards for North Lincolnshire enforce the law; we give a practical second opinion before you print.
What does the report look like?
A written report, with every point marked as fine, advised or must fix, with suggested wording where needed.
Do I need to be based in Messingham to order?
No. We take orders online from anywhere in the UK, so it makes no difference where you’re based. Messingham orders go out by tracked courier to DN17.
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.
