Supplement labelling rules for Mintlaw

Any food supplement sold from Mintlaw must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, regulated nationally by Food Standards Scotland. Locally, food labelling is enforced by the council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Aberdeenshire.

Scotland has its own food regulator, but the supplement labelling rules match England and Wales, so one label works across Great Britain.

What the check covers for Mintlaw 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. 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.

Common questions in Mintlaw

Who enforces food labelling in Aberdeenshire?

Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Aberdeenshire, overseen nationally by Food Standards Scotland. For advice councils must respect, you can set up a Primary Authority partnership with a council.

What do I get back?

A written report, with each item marked fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.

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.

Do you only work with Mintlaw businesses?

No. We work online and deliver across the UK, so it makes no difference where you’re based. Mintlaw deliveries go by tracked courier to AB42.

What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?

We can check for both. 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 check the label for each market.
